Overview

The Founder Collection is Cambria’s first and most exclusive NFT offering, on the Ethereum blockchain (L1). Holders of the Founder NFT will form the core of our community, serving as the earliest supporters, architects, and elder statesmen of New Cambria.

As a founder, you will always have first access to all future Cambria opportunities - including mints, early access, and a separate allocation in our token airdrop.

Additional in-game utility includes:

• The Baton: A symbol of royal authority, conferring unique rights such as reduced fees, landed property, and the prestigious "Ser" in-game title.

• The Scroll: A dynamic document that tracks each Founder’s contributions to Cambria development, with benefits that scale with its progression system.

• Falconry: A companion with a storied history, assisting with hunting, tracking, and resource gathering. The Falcon will gain new abilities over time.

• Founders’ Hall: A private hub in-game for strategizing, socializing, and sharing knowledge. Exclusive amenities like restoration altars and stalls.

Loyalty System 🦄

The loyalty system is designed for us to track player / holder loyalty across the history of all offchain + onchain events related to the player's Cambria account and wallets. Currently, this is only computed based on Founder NFT blockchain events, but we have plans to integrate this into the rest of our Game Stats & player points systems in the future.

We currently track the following Statuses:

• "OG Minter" Status - whether the player minted their NFT along with the original collection mint on September 17th, 2024.

• "First Founder ⭐" Status - "First Founders" are Original Minters that additionally have an unbroken streak of holding at least 1 or more Founder NFTs.

As well as the holder's Loyalty Score:

• Loyalty Score 🔢- this is a score based on how long you've held one or more Founder NFTs. The Loyalty Score resets if no Founder NFTs are held. Re-acquiring a Founder NFT restarts the score accumulation.

Loyalty FAQ

• Q: What if I have a Hot / Cold Wallet that I transferred the NFT between?

  • A: We will be adding a flow soon to link multiple wallets that you own to the same Cambria player account. Once this is up, if you previously lost your First Founder status because of EOA -> EOA transfers, it will display correctly. In this case, the Loyalty Score and all statuses will be combined and credited to your overall Cambria account, which may have multiple wallets linked, with some limitations.

• Q: Do I get more benefits for holding multiple Founder NFTs?

  • A: For the purposes of the Airdrop, yes, there will be a flat allocation per NFT held (see "Airdrop Allocation" below). For in-game utility and most other benefits, no. You will need to hold at least one Founder NFT, but buying / selling / trading on other additional NFTs (past that minimum of one) will not affect your Loyalty Score or First Founder status.

• Q: Is there any downside to holding all of my Founder NFTs on one wallet?

  • A: All Airdrop benefits will be designed in a way that holders will not be forced to spread the Founder NFTs to multiple wallets to maximize their value. For other benefits, we will generally try to scale benefits based on the total # of NFTs held in your wallet (s), with some exceptions. In-game benefits will generally not scale on multiple NFTs.

• Q: In what other ways is Loyalty Score used?

  • A: We are planning to add EP multipliers based on Loyalty Scores to Gold Rush. We may also use Loyalty Score thresholds in other ways as well, if we need a quick qualification criteria.

Airdrop Allocation

The Founder NFT will have a guaranteed allocation in our airdrop, with two parts:

Flat Portion - this portion of the allocation will be a flat amount for each Founder NFT that is held.

Variable Portion - this portion will be based on the combination of a variety of factors:

• Loyalty Score & Tier

• Essence Points

• "First Founder ⭐" status

• Player achievements & history tied to Cambria account

This means that each Founder NFT retains a base (flat) value regardless of associated wallet or player history, loyalty, etc. while also enhancing its value scaling based on its association with the player's own Essence Points and related account history.

Treasury Founder NFTs

When the Founder NFTs were minted, we reserved 150 of them to the Treasury for future growth, incentive alignment, and marketing purposes. Our first use case for these NFTs will be for the Founder NFT Raffle.

Founder NFT Raffle

Periodically, we will be raffling away batches of Founder NFTs directly to existing Founders. This raffle incorporates weighted contributions for both "First Founder" status as well as Loyalty Score, at time of raffle. TL;DR - First Founders and higher Loyalty Scores means you are more likely to win one or more Founder NFTs in a raffle.

Each Founder NFT has a raffle weight W that can be computed as:

$$\text{W} = \left(\frac{\text{Loyalty Score}}{N}\right) \times 2 + \text{First Founder Factor}$$

Where:

• Loyalty Score is a score between 0 and N, where N is the maximum possible Loyalty Score at time of draw.

This Loyalty Score is the score for the specific NFT. Your Loyalty Score as shown in the Founder's dashboard uses the highest Loyalty Score across all of your NFTs.

• First Founder Status is a binary value (1 if the NFT has "First Founder" status, 0 if it doesn't).

Raffle Process:

1. The weight W for every NFT in the collection (excluding the 150 Treasury NFTs) is calculated

$$\text{W} = \left(\frac{\text{Loyalty Score}}{N}\right) \times 2 + \text{First Founder Factor}$$

2. The weights are summed up to get the total weight

$$W_{\text{total}} = \sum_{i=1}^{1350} W_i$$

3. For each NFT, the probability of winning the raffle is:

$$P(\text{winning})_i = \frac{W_i}{W_{\text{total}}}$$

The winning NFT is then drawn based on the weighted probabilities, and the owner of that NFT is sent another Founder NFT. This process is repeated for all Founder NFTs raffled in each periodic batch.
