Today’s the day! Rakim is breaking new ground, back with his first studio album in over a decade. To celebrate the occasion, Rakim is releasing “Love is the Message” as a limited supply reward-enabled NFT on Gala Music!
G.O.D.S. Network Reb7rth features an incredible lineup of well-known artists, including Gala Music favorites and stars from the hip-hop world.
In the finale of our record release partnership with Rakim, Gala Music just dropped another track from the album as a limited and reward-enabled NFT. This is your chance to pick up “Love is the Message” and unlock $MUSIC rewards based on its platform success. But the Rakim NFT action on Gala Music doesn’t stop there…
Last week, Gala Music dropped an exclusive Instrumental EP version of each of G.O.D.S. Network’s 7 tracks. With only 100 of each instrumental NFT available, this set will prove a stellar addition to any hip-hop fan’s Gala Music NFT collection, unlocking $MUSIC rewards for owners.
The best part? You won’t find these instrumental tracks anywhere but Gala Music, so check them out today.
We’re changing things up in the professional music world, giving power and control back to the artists, bringing them closer to their fans than ever before. At the core of this revolution is the $MUSIC token, fueling the ecosystem.
Jukebox Node operators power the decentralized network for $MUSIC rewards, making it possible for track owners and artists to generate $MUSIC every time a track plays on the platform.
Gala Music is a streaming service where it’s absolutely free to listen to and experience music you’ve never heard before, whether from new emerging artists primed for discovery or superstars who wanted to elevate their game with the power of web3. You’ll find live concerts, a streamlined app, and money-can’t buy experiences from some of your favorite artists. Come discover your next favorite song now on Gala Music.
Guilds are live in Common Ground World, and Node Workload NFT owners are already rallying their guilds to build bigger and better together!
There is one more step in our distribution of Node Workload NFTs, however. Coming up next week, we’ll move to V2 of these NFTs!
Node Workload NFT V2
During the initial distribution of Common Ground World Node Workload NFTs, we made a miscalculation in our numbers, and 97 users were left without the NFTs to account for their existing Town Star Nodes. To rectify this issue and pave the way for the development of upgradable Node Workload NFTs, we will be issuing new V2 Node Workload NFTs for Common Ground World.
These NFTs will be identical to existing versions from a functional standpoint. In fact, you’ll still pile up daily $DIRT whether you have a v1 or a v2. To use your Workload NFT in-game as a guild, however, you’ll need to convert to the new v2 NFTs.
Updating your Node Workload NFTs
When the exchange opens, you’ll be able to find Common Ground World Node Workload NFT v2 in the Common Ground World Store. Unlike a regular purchase, however, the cost of acquiring this item will be one Common Ground World Node Workload NFT v1. This will initiate an even exchange for these two items, giving you the updated NFT.
This distribution will begin on July 29th at 10am PT.
At the time the exchange opens, all guilds in Common Ground World will be disbanded, as the v2 NFT becomes the official guild NFT. Guild owners should exchange their v1 for a v2 as soon as possible so they can get their guild together again using the new item.
Again, this is only necessary if you intend to use your Node Workload NFT as a guild in Common Ground World. If you do not, either the v1 or v2 versions will be identical in your wallet for the time being.
There is currently no duration for this exchange. If you purchase a Node Workload NFT v1 from a secondary market, you can easily exchange it for a v2 version. When/if the exchange is closing, we will let you know significantly in advance along with explaining the next steps.
NOTE: While you will need to have a v2 Node Workload NFT in your GalaChain wallet to use it in game, all Common Ground World Node Workload NFTs will still receive $DIRT distribution. All Common Ground World Node Workload NFTs will still get their $DIRT distribution, regardless of whether they are v1 or v2 – in your GalaChain allowance or your wallet on GalaChain.
Building for the Future
We realize this may be an inconvenience for some, but seeing this process through will create an easier path forward for all players. We’re proud to be the first operating Node Workload NFT in the Gala Ecosystem, and we thank you all for taking this journey with us!
This transition is coming. We’ll be in touch with more details as it approaches, but we wanted to alert everyone to the change as soon as possible.
Get your guilds ready and get the word out there so you can keep building the future of Common Ground World!
