Don’t get fooled out of a VBA Player
With our first players redeemed, packs with 6 or fewer players can be traded on the marketplace. This blog post will help flipoooors and investoooors assess the value of a player pack before purchasing through the following vetted process. Protect yourself by educating yourself.
The Metadata
Player Pack Redemption count is the most important piece of metadata when assessing a pack for its value. A full pack will have a Player Redemption value of 7. Every subsequent pack opening will decrement the Player Redemption count until it reaches 0, signifying that there are no players left to redeem.
Some marketplaces like MagicEden have a 2 hour delay between the onchain update and the UI update. We have stored the Player Redemption count on chain so that it can be easily accessible to the community, regardless of marketplace delay.
We are working with our external partners to find a way to update the metadata as quickly as possible on their sites. For now, the VBA dev team will step in and build tooling for the community while we wait.
Please follow the steps below before making a purchasing decision on any NFT marketplace. The VBA team cannot make any promises on metadata values from third party sites.
