Full Book Games Data Set

Here's the full set of Book Games data all on one sheet.  I have decided not to include wallet addresses. It's all here and it's all free.

Beware it is static as of one point in time. I'll try to update it weekly or if something major changes.

Why is the Floor Dropping Today?


I had a post ready for today about crazy Book Games Theories but the excitement from the floor dropping today takes precedence.

Last night one wallet was airdropped over 482 Book Game Tokens. Today many of those are being sold below the floor. Who is the mystery player and why are they selling so low? It's anybody's guess. Is it Gary in disguise giving everyone a chance at a bargain? I certainly don't know. 

One clue I saw was that the IDs at the floor were very close to each other. Many of the aidrops of Book Games Tokens to the same player are done with consecutive IDs. That is true of the large airdrop to one wallet yesterday. Check the picture above and you'll see what I mean: 86530, 86400, 86434, 86607, 86567. This wallet was issued IDs 86376-86663 and 119282-119331.

With all of those tokens airdropped, the wallet only got one special. A Galaxy/Bubble Gum/Paper Hands Pony currently listed at 7.385ETH.

Burns by Traits

Which tokens have been burned so far? The spreadsheet below shows the various combinations and their respective burn counts. 

Which is the most rare token burned so far? Someone burned a Champagne/Bubble Gum/Gratitude. There were only 2 and now there's only 1! It's not currently for sale. 

The second rarest to be burned was a Neon/Gold/Conviction. Only three exist now.

Book Game Token Burn Process

Edit: This issue appears to be fixed on the VeeFriends website.


Someone on the VeeFreinds Discord asked why the number of Tokens Burnt on the VeeFriends website decreased from over 2,000 yesterday to 1,714 today. I'm pretty sure I know what's going on so I'll give a breakdown of how I think the burn process works.

1. Tokens are exchanged for stuff on the Exchange.

2. Those tokens are transferred to a holding wallet for some period of time.

3. After those transactions are considered to be complete, for example, the sports card exchanged is delivered, they actually get burned. That means they are sent to wallet 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000.

The tokens get sent to a holding wallet initially in case there's an issue with the transaction. Once they get sent to the wallet with all zeros, I don't think there's a way of ever salvaging the token. So it's a safety measure for the token exchanger. I've noticed at least one exchange that was rolled back.


So why is the number wrong on the VeeFriends website today?

They're only listing the number of tokens in the holding wallet. They are missing the tokens that have been sent to the all-zeros wallet and are permanently burnt.

Remaining Specials

There are roughly 16,000 Book Games tokens that either Gary holds or are currently unclaimed. So how many specials remain to be claimed or given out?

As of today there are 70 Koalas, 58 Paper Hands Ponies and 2 Ogres. If you haven't yet claimed yours, you might get lucky and snag one of these!

Time Machine Tiny Ogre Uniqueness


Out of the 125,000 Book Game Tokens there are 971 "Specials". These include all tokens with the Koala 2025, Paper Hands Pony, and Time Machine Tiny Ogre attributes.

478 - Koala 2025

478 - Paper Hands Pony

15 - Time Machine Tiny Ogre

Of the Time Machine Tiny Ogres, all combinations are unique except Hologram/Pearl for which there are two. Is that some sort of clue? They could have easily made that combination unique. Why didn't they? Is the Hologram/Pearl combination special for some aspect of the game? Let me know if you have a theory.

Wallet Sizes

I did some analysis on the size of Book Games Wallets. There were, as of about 12 hours ago, 8,803 players with a single token. 4,336 players with two tokens and nearly 2,000 players with 3 tokens. I was suprised that there are over 100 players with 20 tokens!

The other end of the spectrum is where things get interesting. There is a wallet with 16,237 tokens! I confirmed yesterday with Gary that these are the unissued tokens along with Gary's tokens that I'm sure he'll do something with at a later date. He announced that he's doing a giveaway this Sunday, January 27th in the VeeFriends Discord. Gary has mentioned that he's holding somewhere in the range of 6,000 to 7,000 tokens which means almost 10,000 are currently unclaimed. What happens to those when the redemption runs out at the end of the year?

Another wallet size I want to point out is the second largest at 2,114. This is the burn wallet and matches exactly with the VeeFriends website.

There are several wallets with over 600 tokens. Who owns these? I'd love to hear your guesses.
