Pepoles Advent Calendar, Dynamic PFP Project, and More!
It’s been a year since the revolutionary TezPole project shook up the Tezos art scene, galvanizing artists to channel their collective frustrations into a wave of memes that reshaped the Tezos community. What started as a grassroots movement blossomed into a thriving cultural revolution, anchored by the $POLE token. Today, $POLE is more than just a token — it’s a gateway to collect stunning artworks on Objkt and a symbol of the community’s creativity and resilience. Let’s dive into what this project has achieved, how to get involved right now, and what’s on the horizon.
What’s the TezPole Community Been Up To?
Over the past year, TezPole has ventured into DeFi Farms, art collaborations, airdrops, payment integration on Objkt, the Ctrl+Alt+Revolt event co-hosted by Here and Now, and of course, The Ribela Music Festival! Through these initiatives, TezPole and the Tezos Community have shown what happens when memes meet fine art, and showcased hundreds of artists in the process.
That wasn’t even an all inclusive update on Tezpoles accomplishments. You can find much more history and info by visiting the TezPole discord here. You can also find a recent post on the TezPole X account further showcasing accomplishments, here.
The latest milestone? The launch of the ‘2024 Pepoles Advent Calendar’ — a daily celebration of art, rewards, and the 1st anniversary of the vibrant $POLE community. Each day in December, holders of 420.69 Million $POLE (the original airdrop amount) can open a new calendar window to claim unique prizes, making the holiday season even more exciting for TezPole enthusiasts. Below is a break down of the rewards you can acquire by taking part in the festivities.
The Advent Calendar: Rewards and Participation
The Advent Calendar offers an impressive lineup of rewards, including:
Art Rewards: Tribute pieces of iconic Tezos art and original TezPole creations to celebrate the project’s anniversary and the holiday season.
Pepoles Rewards: NFTs created by Pepoles artist Daniel W (@oldog666), featuring:
Ace of Experience: Redeemable for 1000 XP to level up a Pepole.
Ace of Poles: Redeemable for a common trait to upgrade a Pepole.
Ace of Dank: Redeemable for a rare trait, exclusive to $POLE top holders.
Rare traits vary by day, offering top holders more chances to score these coveted upgrades. For all other holders, common traits are still up for grabs. We will explain the upgrades and dynamic traits more below.
How to Claim Your Rewards
If you’re on the “nice list”, by holding the original amount of $pole that was airdropped a year ago, claiming your daily rewards is simple:
Visit advent.pepoles.xyz.
Connect your wallet.
Open the corresponding calendar window to claim your prize.
Important Details:
You don’t need to hold $POLE in your wallet; holdings in farms or liquidity pools count.
Daily snapshots of $POLE holdings are taken within the two hours prior to each claiming period.
Each days reward will be claimable for 48 hours.
The Advent Calendar is already in full swing, but it’s not too late to join in on the fun. As of this writing, we’re on Day 13, and there are still plenty of prizes to claim and windows to open! Snapshots happen daily so even if you do not currently hold the required amount of $Pole, you can always scoop up more at a Tezos DeFi trading platform such as 3route, Quipuswap, Plenty, Spicyswap, and Crunchy Network.
Looking Ahead: The Pepoles NFT Project
The Pepoles NFT project is gearing up to be another milestone for TezPole, blending unique PFP designs with innovative utility. With rewards from the Advent Calendar tying directly into this upcoming release, $POLE holders can gain a head start in leveling up their Pepoles and customizing traits.
What do you mean by customized traits, leveling up and XP?!
Pepoles is introducing something revolutionary to the Tezos Community, Dynamic PFPs! Up until release, traits and XP will be awarded to holders of the $Pole token. This includes buying, providing liquidity, and farming. For example, the team has figured out how to account for each users holdings even if they are actively in farms. To see your overall holdings and position, you can visit the Pole stats page here. You can also see your overall position in the top holders here.
