As it stands now we are set to launch this week. Due to the significant interest shown by the Hive community we decided to put in place some safeguards to make the launch more fair on mint day.
We wont be sharing all the details, which would defeat the purpose of the changes but what we can say here is that there will be a limit on how many NFTs you can purchase per account on day 1 with a certain limitation in which accounts, based on certain attributes, can purchase to avoid all of them being scooped up by a whale that owns multiple accounts.
These restrictions will be present only in the first 24 hours so smaller accounts have a decent chance of getting the NFTs. After 24 hours all restrictions on purchases will be lifted.

Keep up the good work moving.
If there really is great interest, not sure how you will manage to prevent this just by limiting accounts.... especially the smaller ones ...
The only way would be imposing some token stake system, like based on HP you hodl, but in terms the more you have the more you get, and not the opposite :) That would be easy to be abused. ... just spread the stake.
We thought of something like that but it would take too long.
What we will go with wont be perfect but will be better than simply opening the mint.
There will be a max NFTs you can Mint and on top of that your account will have to fulfill certain requirements.
A more robust system will be created later on, but as a first step I feel this should be good "enough".
Hive is actually pretty great for these kinds of drops. Solana, Ethereum, etc. doesnt allow for any kind of safeguards. Hive does.

Brilliant idea but this may also take a while boss
