Drip Teddy Club Is Integrating Chainlink VRF To Help Power Fair NFT Mint
From the genius of Waka Flocka Flame, and Fashun Rivers we present you Drip Teddy Club (DTC) which is a NFT PFP project like no other. Originating from the artistic mind of Victor Eghose, a 21-year-old artist in Benin, Nigeria, DTC was first imagined on a cracked Android phone when Victor was looking for a way to support himself and his family through his passion for drawing. Illustrating every 2D version of Drip Teddy with a cut index finger, Victor was determined to make a way. After another project hacked Victor’s social media accounts to copy his art, Fashun Rivers and Waka Flocka were compelled to take on the project to take it to the next level.
The Drip Teddy Club is pleased to announce that we are integrating Chainlink Verifiable Random Function (VRF) into the NFT project. By integrating the industry-leading decentralized oracle network, we can obtain access to a tamper-proof and auditable source of randomness needed to help randomly determine NFT traits. Ultimately this creates a more exciting and transparent user experience, as each user has a fair chance of minting an NFT with the most desirable traits.
Drip Teddy Club is a project that is bringing the cool factor back to NFTs. Each Drip Teddy is dripped with their own style, charisma, and Meta-verse swagger that will become a blockchain celebrity similar to NFT projects such as the BAYC, Crypto Punks, etc. Drip Teddy Club will not only deliver a digital collection of 10,000 uniquely designed teddies, but each teddy will also feature it’s own soundtrack provided by the platinum and legendary producer Lex Luger who has produced hits like Waka Flocka Flame “Hard In The Paint”, Rick Ross “BMF”, Ace Hood “Hustle Hard”, and a plethora of many others. Drip Teddy Club will be the most drippiest NFT collection of all time. This will be the first PFP project of its kind. No NFT pfp has ever provided amazing artwork along with some of the best sounds in the world before, that will allow each NFT holder the ability to utilize whatever instrumental accompanied with their teddy via licensing.
In order to help determine NFT traits in a verifiably random manner, we need access to a secure random number generator (RNG) that any user could independently audit. However, RNG solutions for smart contracts require several security considerations to prevent manipulation and ensure system integrity. For instance, RNG solutions derived from blockchain data like block hashes can be exploited by miners/validators, while off-chain RNG solutions derived from off-chain APIs are opaque and don’t provide users with definitive proof about the integrity of the process.
After reviewing various solutions, we selected Chainlink VRF because it’s based on cutting-edge academic research, supported by a time-tested oracle network, and secured through the generation and on-chain verification of cryptographic proofs that prove the integrity of each random number supplied to smart contracts.
Chainlink VRF works by combining block data that is still unknown when the request is made with the oracle node’s pre-committed private key to generate both a random number and a cryptographic proof. The Drip Teddy Club smart contract will only accept the random number input if it has a valid cryptographic proof, and the cryptographic proof can only be generated if the VRF process is tamper-proof. This provides our users with automated and verifiable assurances directly on-chain that the NFT trait selection process is provably fair and was not tampered with by the oracle, outside entities, or the Drip Teddy Club team.
“Drip Teddy Club requires best-in-class infrastructure to truly innovate within the NFT space. Chainlink VRF is now a critical part of our technology stack, helping to make our NFT mint fairer and more transparent.” — Fashun Rivers, Visionary
About Chainlink
Chainlink is the industry standard for building, accessing, and selling oracle services needed to power hybrid smart contracts on any blockchain. Chainlink oracle networks provide smart contracts with a way to reliably connect to any external API and leverage secure off-chain computations for enabling feature-rich applications. Chainlink currently secures tens of billions of dollars across DeFi, insurance, gaming, and other major industries, and offers global enterprises and leading data providers a universal gateway to all blockchains.
