Tableau

I started playing around with Tableau yesterday. I created a test visualization that shows, at a glance the number of token there are, after burns, for any combination. This software should allow for more robust and faster analysis than the current spreadsheet. Please have a look and let me know if you have any ideas for visualizations.

Wallets With 5 Or More Like Frames

There's been a lot of discussion in the VeeFriends Discord about accumulating five or more of the same type of frame. There is speculation this will be a requirement to burn for either a VeeCon ticket or a new VeeFriends 2 character. I think the burn requirements for a new character will be higher but that's just my opinion. I thought I'd post a list of the number of wallets that hold 5 or more of each frame as of the morning of February 27th in the US. It looks like Neon, Emerald and Pearl have the least number while still being somewhat attainable.

Saturday Values

Yesterday was an exciting day in the Book Games world. Gary posted that having five of the same frames mattered. Immediately people started trying to build collections of the same five frames. Total sales yesterday (day is measured by GMT) were 464. That's about triple the volume we've been having lately.

It's not clear if Gary's message is talking about an upcoming Token Exchange sale on VeeCon tickets or burning requirements to mint VeeFriends 2 new characters. Hopefully we'll find out soon.

It's been a few days since I posted my best value list. The prices are noticeably on the rise. I'll also note that these prices are for the Immutable X Marketplace which remains slightly cheaper than TokenTrove.

I've pulled the top 25 tokens in terms of Rarity Price Ratio and then sorted those 25 based upon price. It looks like Granite has become a bit underpriced. It's not super rare but slightly more rare than most tokens on the floor and selling just slightly above the floor. If you want to pick up 5 Granite tokens relatively cheaply, now is the time to move. The two Galaxy frames with less than 100 supply look nice for someone working on one of those collections. Champagne has begun to bubble up the list as the general floor has moved higher. Might be time to start buying those for some of you players with bigger bankrolls. Good luck!

VeeFriends 2 Minting Raffle

There has been a lot of discussion in the VeeFriends Discord about how to get on the whitelist for minting a VeeFriends 2 NFT. There will be a raffle among Book Games Token holders to determine who gets on the whitelist. The probabilities for that raffle have not yet been announced. In the table below I've laid out various scenarios and the associated probability of winning at least 1 whitelist spot based upon how many tokens you hold. I highlighted the number of tokens needed for a 90% chance of getting at least 1 whitelist spot for each of the probabilities. For example, if there is a 10% chance for each token during the raffle, you would need to hold 22 tokens to give yourself a 90% chance of getting at least 1 whitelist spot.

For the statisticians out there, I used the following formula to determine probability: 1 - ((1 - Probability) ^ Token Count)

Immutascan

Just a quick post to say that you can quickly see what transactions are happening in the Book Games universe by checking out Immutascan.

This link will show you, at a glance, all the transactions taking place. So the next time you see the floor being swept you can check out who is doing the sweeping.

Ogres

Yesterday someone claimed their Book Game tokens. They got 24 tokens and one of them was a Time Machine Tiny Ogre. There is now one Ogre left to be claimed. It's a Gold/Wood combination. Will it be claimed or will 2022 end before that happens?

Patience/Bubble Gum/Fur

Someone asked in the VeeFriends Discord why the Patience/Bubble Gum/Fur floor was 0.93ETH. There are 125 remaining tokens with those traits so it's not particularly rare -- and yet it's selling for more than three times the current floor. When there's a disconnect between rarity and price it usually means Gary has hinted something about it. Of course, he did.

Let's see what that did to the price. This is a list of all transactions for this combination. I added a line where the hint happened.

As you can see the price jumped. But look closer to see how many players left a lot of ETH on the table by selling too low. There are at least four sales (bolded) that were far too low, maybe more. This is simply a lack of research when selling. Check the floors and rarity before selling. If you see something that doesn't make sense, dive in a little deeper and check to see if Gary hinted. The fine folks in the VeeFriends Discord are there to answer questions like these. There are bots out there that are taking advantage of these mispriced tokens -- don't let them win!
