Gno.land Settlers
Settlers are small pixel-art gnomes, and each one belongs to a single Gno.land account, forever. A Settler can't be sold, traded, or given to anyone else. Once it's yours, it stays yours.
Why they exist
Settlers are a thank-you to the people who were part of Gno.land from the very beginning. Anyone whose
account already held at least 15 GNOT when the gnoland-1 chain launched can claim one Settler. It's a
simple, permanent way of saying "this account was here at the start."
No two are alike
Nobody picks how their Settler looks. Its skin tone, hat, beard, clothes, glasses and background are all worked out automatically from the account that claims it and the moment it's claimed, and the collection makes sure the same combination is never drawn twice. So every Settler is one of a kind, and it's a little surprise to see which one you get.
One per account
Each eligible account can claim exactly one Settler, on a first-come, first-served basis, until all of them are gone (there are 3,000 in total). There's no cost beyond the usual cost of sending a transaction.
How to get one
If your account was eligible, you can claim your Settler from the mint page at jeronimoalbi.github.io/gnoland-settlers. Once claimed, you can look up any Settler, and see who it belongs to, right here in this realm.
The mint page is also the quickest way to get the proof for the
Mint call, type your address there and it shows both the proof
and the exact gnokey command, ready to copy.
A friendly word of caution
This project is made by one person, for fun. It has not been audited by anyone. Everything here is open source, so please have a look yourself, or ask someone you trust to, before connecting a wallet or signing anything. Nobody involved in this project is responsible for what happens to your account or your funds; using it is entirely your own choice and your own responsibility.
Minting without the web page
If you'd rather not use the mint page at all, or just want to see everything for yourself first, you can do
the whole thing by hand with a terminal. Nothing here needs trusting a website: the list of eligible accounts
and your proof are both worked out from the public genesis of gnoland-1, and you can check every step
following the instructions you can find in jeronimoalbi/gnoland-settlers
repository.
See your Settler as a picture
Once you have your Settler, a separate avatar realm can draw it as a picture whenever it's asked to, so you, or any other realm or web app, can show it next to your address, as profile picture, in forum post, a leaderboard row, wherever you like.
