About
CryptoHoots are a rowdy crowd of steampunk owls who think the 20th century was a mistake. They live in an alternate timeline in the metaverse where gear-driven gadgets and steam-powered machinery rules the roost. They have no need for electricity. Their blockchain technology uses *actual* chains and blocks. These fascinating creatures must be studied! We need your help to catalog 2,500 Hoots from this timeline.
Identifying Hoots
Though birds of a feather they be, each one has a verifiably unique personality. Four primary breeds exist in the wild, but if you're lucky enough, you'll catch a glimpse of a rare, mechanical Hootoid. There have been rumors of undead, featherless hoots as well, but no one's lived to tell.
In the Field
Each bird has up to 12 unique traits. While some Hoots prefer to lounge about, naked as a jaybird, others have a bit more, ahem, sophistication. An expansive collection of steampunk attire have been spotted in the wild. Try to collect samples of the rarest combinations.
What You Need
You'll need MetaMask or a WalletConnect-enabled Ethereum wallet with some ETH. Download the MetaMask extension for Chrome or Brave Browser and fund it with ETH from an exchange like Coinbase or Kraken. Stay tuned for official announcements by following along on Twitter and Discord. A launch date will be announced soon!

ShuffleMint: NFT Studio
In order to discover this CryptoHoots timeline, we crafted a tool that we call the ShuffleMint. It helped us zero in on the unique traits and weights that make up the DNA of CryptoHoots, to make them provably random.
Exclusive Access For Hoot Owners
Once all 2,500 Hoots have a home, we're releasing this tool to Hoot owners. You'll Need a Hoot NFT in your wallet to get access!
Dream Up New Collections
This tool will help you to dream up new collections in the metaverse for others to discover and explore. It requires no special coding skills to use! You'll be able to drag and drop image assets, classify and tag them, and set weights and rules for the random output.
Export and Integrate
Once you've built the perfect collection, export the weights and combos to integrate with our sample smart contract. Make any additional tweaks, create a website, then you're ready to launch!
