NiftyNoon: The Yuga Labs HV-MTL Sewer Pass Mint

As Dookey Dash sunsets, a new Yuga Labs NFT mints with unexpected obstacles (March 16, 2023)

Nifty Thought

• The summoning for Yuga Labs did not go smoothly. HV-MTLs were summoned using Sewer Passes with different tiers and characteristics (such as companions) being tied to Sewer Pass rank. Unfortunately, metadata issues resulted in certain HV-MTLs showing companions in the metadata when they did not actually have any. While this could have been a disaster for Yuga Labs in a manner that deeply harmed its credibility, the beloved NFT company instead stepped up and offered price difference refunds to everyone affected by their mistake. This simple but costly gesture maintains the company’s good will in the NFT space and proves the now old adage true: never fade Yuga Labs.

  We're investigating an issue regarding Companion traits not showing up correctly on HV-MTL Power Sources. The trait has been removed from the collection for now and we will push a metadata update when this is resolved.

  GeeGazza  @Gee__Gazza

  Its pretty clear RTFKT made digital designs without consulting manufacturers. This has led to a bunch of… “artistic licenses” being taken in the clothes and shoes. Discrepancies between images and physical is only ever going to end badly. A lot arent getting what they expected
