EU Action Campaign 1
Letter Writing Campaign and NFT Drop to Combat European Union Crackdown Against Cryptocurrency
The European Union is cracking down on cryptocurrency and its citizens freedom to transact. This threatens Europe's future and everybody within its borders. PAC DAO is allying with the EU community to get the voices of EU citizens heard.
PAC DAO is organizing an EU Action Campaign for the following reasons:
Raising awareness of EU Citizens freedom to transact
Organizing a letter writing campaign to respectfully influence Members of Parliament
Educate and positively advocate for cryptocurrency and innovation
In the spirit of Europe's collaborative culture, we do not support any attempts to harass or intimidate anybody.
NFT
We commissioned artwork by NFT Artist Scooby Doomer for all who are supporting the movement. Users may mint up to ten copies at a time for 0.042 ETH apiece, with funds going to support EU activism as determined by the DAO.
The NFT costs .042 per mint, with the first one free for users on the whitelist. You may mint up to 10 per transaction, and the total maximum supply is 1000. 90% are "common" with a white border, with 10% randomly assigned a special gold border.
WHITELIST
We also provisioned free copies for users who take any of the following actions:
Left more than 3 qualified candidate ratings on pac.xyz or eu.pac.xyz
Submitted a letter to their Member of Parliament (details below)
Hold a PAC DAO founder token or governance token
If you believe you are eligible for a free mint and do not see a whitelist notification please contact us in Discord.
LETTER WRITING CAMPAIGN
The latest EU regulatory proposals limit our freedom to transact, arguably one of the most important freedoms that individuals should have. PAC DAO is providing a letter template aiming to help EU DeFi enthusiasts contact your representative and comment on the latest EU regulations. We drafted form language and included a section for you to share your background and why you feel this matter is so important to you and to others.
One of the most effective methods of communicating our positions is through letters. Sending this letter will be a personal action and the opinions you express do not necessarily represent the opinion of PAC DAO.
ART
ScoobyDoomer is a biomedical researcher by day and a web3 artist/memeographer by night. He has his own collection of 1/1 art pieces, in which each piece is focused on characters and personalities from crypto twitter.
TECH
This NFT also makes history, as the first known NFT coded in Vyper to land on OpenSea! Details here. Due to the fact Etherscan does not yet support Vyper 0.3.3, Etherscan is not capable of reading the contracts, and therefore you may only interface with the contract via our minting website or directly using a tool like Brownie. The source code is publicly available on our Github and free to modify and re-use under the MIT license.
Deployment addresses:
As an experimental release, please be aware that the NFT is an even greater risk than most NFTs. The technology has never been tested on mainnet, and as a result you may encounter unforeseen bugs.
All minting is considered “as is” and user assumes any risks. PAC cannot and will not issue refunds in the event of errors or any other reason.
If you encounter any issues at all, please report them directly in the Discord.
History of NFT Action Campaigns
To toot our own horn a bit, our NFT action campaigns are proving a successful way of organizing in favor of Web3 causes. To date, PAC has run several such campaigns.
Founder Token:
As a funding mechanism, our Founder Token remains a success story as an organizing mechanism. The 57 owners of the Founder Token raised over 17 ETH to get the project off the ground. The token may still be minted, although the mint price has reached 1.55 ETH. Following 5.9 ETH worth of trading activity, no users are presently willing to sell their token on OpenSea.
Action Campaign 1:
Our first Action Campaign was aimed at stripping the cryptocurrency language from the infrastructure bill. Although the campaign was not successful at influencing Congress directly, the groundswell of popular activity we generated has been cited several times as a tipping point in Congress’s behavior towards cryptocurrency.
The campaign raised an additional 20 ETH, at an average mint price of .068 ETH. The current floor price is now 1 ETH. An auction for a rare version also captured nearly 5 ETH, with no users willing to sell.
A later release of 300 Uncommon NFTs in the series remains available for mint.
SEC Letter Writing Campaign
Most recently, the SEC Letter Writing campaign flooded DC with letters opposing the SEC’s anti-Constitutional power grab. The time period for writing a letter has expired, and the NFT has hit a 3 ETH floor price.
More history on our NFTs are available here.
Disclaimer
Although past campaigns have been successful, note that floor price is a poor metric for valuing NFTs. Despite these listing fees, relatively little volume has actually transacted. We do not offer NFTs as an investment vehicle, and all users who mint NFTs should be aware they are likely to be worthless. Any issuance of NFTs is simply as a proof of participation and a means to spread word about the cause.
