Based Summer is a solo project created for the Buildathon Onchain Summer under the category:

SOCIAL with Farcaster

Social Track

The project aims to maximize the abstraction of blockchain and crypto by implementing the Coinbase Smart Wallet. Users can seamlessly create a wallet on-the-fly using a device as a keypass, making the experience as user-friendly as possible.

The primary goal is to mint free stunning artwork created by the renowned artist mochiNFT, reflecting the positive vibes of Onchain Summer.

• Total Editions: 33
  • Fragmented Illustrations: 3 (10 editions each)
  • Individual Scenes: 30 (300 editions each)

The total supply is 9,030 NFTs. Followers were asked to drop their PFPs without permission for inclusion in the illustration, which also features memes and notable figures.

Minting can be done for free, sponsored by the Coinbase Paymaster (implementation pending). Users will only need to cover the gas fees, which are less than $0.01.

1. Orb Interaction: Users start by interacting with a floating orb, triggering the Coinbase Smart Wallet window to sign in or create a wallet.
2. Wallet Information Display: A floating window shows the user's wallet information, including:
   • Statuses on platforms like Zora, Synthetix, Aerodrome, Nouns, LilNouns, or Farcaster.
   • ENS details, using the preferred profile image (Warpcast or ENS) or none.
   • If the user owns the SupaBald Jesse NFT (owned by Buildathon participants), an Easter egg GIF will play.
   • Verification is done via onchain methods and Airstack for other data checks.
3. Mint Prompt: After a brief display of the wallet information, a billboard with the text "MINT" (using the Britney font from the Onchain Summer campaign) appears.
4. Minting Animation: Clicking "MINT" initiates a summer-themed background animation. The orb shrinks into a whirlpool, and a random NFT is minted on Base.
5. Repeat Minting: Users can mint multiple times, with the orb continuing to shrink after each mint.
