    A Kid Called Beast NFT: Everything You Need To Know

    By AdeleJanuary 18, 2023Updated:January 20, 20233 Mins Read

    A KID called BEAST is the latest NFT PFP project to steal the show among collectors. The controversial collection gained popularity for its unique minting system, both in a good and a bad way. On the bright side, users can allegedly pick their NFT type when minting, which almost never happens with similar projects.

    The downside? The team’s 24K allowlist (the BeastList) suddenly reduced to 9,000 minters just before the official AKCB NFT drop. Three hours ago, co-founder Rafsby announced a delay in minting, now scheduled for this Friday.

    Of course, the NFT community can’t help but wonder what’s going on. Is a KID called BEAST worth the hype? Do these collectibles hold valuable perks or not? Here’s everything we know so far:

    A KID called BEAST is the latest NFT project to enter the spotlight – but is their minting process accurate?

    What is a KID Called BEAST?

    A KID called BEAST is a new NFT project inspired by the inner beast that lies inside of us. The founders’ theory says that we all share basic instincts, some hiding them better than others. This NFT collection aims to honor our inner self, allowing collectors to express their freedom.

    Of course, everybody is different. That’s why the debut AKCB collection consists of 10,000 3D collectibles divided into 20 Beast Modes. Each Beast Mode has different traits and interests, ranging from culinary pleasures to art, luxury living, crypto, and even coding. Some avatars are sensitive or loud, while others are honest and aware – and their outfits definitely reflect their personalities.

    Considering this system, many NFT traders assume that each Beast Mode will bring custom utility, although this has not been officially confirmed yet.

    Who is Behind AKCB?

    The project co-founders are Rafael “Rafsby” Ferrero and Caleb Smiler. Both crypto investors have individual projects and experience in the Web3 sector. For example, Caleb Smiler founded AnjiEco last year, an innovative DeFi platform to trade and earn crypto. Meanwhile, Rafsby owns Loudchain, a crypto consultancy company.

    In total, the AKCB team has 21 members including digital artists, community managers, and developers. Accordingly, this team has been working on the project for 14 months, which sounds pretty promising – so why is it so controversial?

    With 20 Beast Modes and multiple personality traits available, the AKCB collectibles are taking the NFT world by storm.

    How Does the AKCB Minting Process Work?

    Much like other NFT projects, a KID called BEAST opened a allowlist (known as “beastlist”) prior to minting. By January, the list had amassed more than 24,000 members – a great number for a new NFT project.

    Yet by January 17th, that list surprisingly dropped to 9,000 members, causing a stir among collectors. Rafsby soon explained that the initial allowlist had many bots and only 9813 real users remained after removing those bots from the list. However, Twitter user @hypno.eth pointed out that the remaining 20K wallets are still part of the AKCB smart contract.

    This conflict is possibly why a KID called BEAST delayed their mint until Friday. Here’s their Twitter announcement:

    In other words, the best we can do right now is to sit and wait for other announcements. If you’ve made it to the Beastlist, make sure to follow their Twitter account and get your digital wallet ready for this Friday!
