VeVe is innovating the collecting experience with Evolvables, a new format for VeVe drops where all users start with a Common and then burn each rarity to craft their way through each rarity, to secure the elusive Secret Rare.
Evolvables puts collectors in control of the rarities and collectibles they want, in a new exciting way, exclusive to digital collecting!
Evolvables drops are similar to current VeVe drops in the sense there are five collectibles in a set (Common to Secret Rare), and to complete the set you must own all five. However, for the first time, you can actively transform your digital items through the Evolvables model, which enables you to purchase multiple editions of a collectible and burn them as part of an upgrade process, permanently removing earlier editions from circulation to unlock rarer versions. There are five rarity tiers, starting at Common and culminating in the elusive Secret Rare.
For example: If you wanted to secure a Secret Rare in an Evolvables drop, you must burn a Common to craft an Uncommon, burn an Uncommon to craft the Rare, and so on through to the Secret Rare. In addition to burning the previous rarities, you must ALSO burn MCP points to obtain the next rarity.
But Wait, That Sounds Expensive...
If I have to burn my collectibles, to get each of the rarities, won’t that cost me a lot of money?!
We want to make digital collecting more accessible to all collectors, and one advantage Evolvables drops offer is really accessible price points.
In a typical Evolvables drop, a Common will be priced at 20.00 Gems, the Uncommon and Rare at 6.99 Gems, and the Ultra Rare and Secret Rare at 9.99 Gems. This sets the entry point for a Common almost 50% lower than our typical premium collectible pricing, and even more so for the following rarities. We will start with this structure and periodically review based on feedback and behaviors.
So what will it cost me to get a Secret Rare?
To secure a Secret Rare, you will purchase one of each rarity to burn. Let’s look at an example:
1 x Common (20.00 Gems) + 1 x Uncommon (6.99 Gems) + 1 x Rare (6.99 Gems) + 1 x Ultra Rare (9.99 Gems) + 1 x Secret Rare (9.99 Gems)
So a Secret Rare would cost you: 53.96 Gems, in this example.
Every Common in an Evolvables drop will have a Special Edition chaser!
Special Editions will make up a small percentage (approx 3%) of the Common editions, meaning you have a chance to secure a super low edition collectible when purchasing a Common from the Store.
Special Editions are evenly distributed across the sale of the Common editions, so you will have a chance to secure a Special Edition until the Commons are sold out.
The Special Edition Commons will typically be the same collectible design as the Common, with unique visual differences that distinguish them from the Common.
Whilst all Commons will have a Special Edition chaser, other rarities can also have a Special Edition for the excitement of the chase from Common to Secret Rare.
Drop Edition Sizes
Editions in Evolvables drops are typically larger due to the burn mechanics to secure all the rarities. Once burns have taken place, only limited numbers will remain available.
Evolvables drops will be added to the current suite of drop formats you already know such as blind box, non-blind box, and crafts, as well as Evolvables.
Can I purchase Evolvables from the secondary market and use them in the craft and burn?
You sure can!
When is the first Evolvables drop?
The First Evolvable Launch is coming 30 November 2024. The chase is on.
