December 2022

Summary

Planning, Building, Prepping and Running the Holiday Season Mint

December was an exciting month as we had our Holiday Mint.

Our NFT Marketplace got a HUGE update and is now able to accept $COPI as well as ADA for NFT mints.

A huge update to the COPIWiki was done to add more gameplay information about the Land Plots.

We also had lots of discussion on how much we should release the Origin Story and in what format text/image/video - the next few months will show the outcome of those talks.

At the start of December we achieved the 63m ₳ staked milestone in the COPI StakePool from over 4,900 delegates.
