First Come, First Served

Each country-theme combination exists exactly once. If someone else has already claimed the Japan Heritage Fox, it is no longer available. Popular countries and themes will go fast. Check availability before selecting.

Availability Checking​

The Citizens page displays:

  • A world map showing claimed vs. available countries
  • For each country, which of the 7 themes are still available
  • Total collection mint progress (e.g., 847 / 1,711 minted)
  • Your own claimed NFT if you have one

Soulbound vs. Tradeable​

Country NFTs (Soulbound)​

The 1,671 country-theme NFTs are soulbound -- they cannot be transferred or sold after minting.

PropertyDetail
TransferableNo
SellableNo
BurnableNo
Linked to walletPermanently

Soulbound NFTs serve as proof of early participation and cannot be separated from the wallet that earned them. This prevents speculation and ensures the NFT represents genuine campaign activity.

Special NFTs (Tradeable)​

The 40 special NFTs are tradeable standard ERC-721 tokens that can be transferred, sold on marketplaces, or gifted.

Special Themes​

Special NFTs feature unique artwork not tied to any country. They include rare traits, animated elements, and exclusive backgrounds that distinguish them from the standard collection.

Golden Fox Milestones​

When the total collection mint count reaches certain thresholds, Golden Fox NFTs are distributed to community members:

MilestoneTotal ClaimsGolden Foxes DistributedRecipients
First Golden Fox5004Random draw from holders
Second Golden Fox1,0004Random draw from holders
Third Golden Fox1,5004Random draw from holders

Golden Fox NFTs are selected randomly from all existing holders at the time the milestone is reached. Every claimed Mono Fox Citizen gives you one entry in the draw. The draw is performed on-chain using a verifiable random function.

Monoscan Profile Integration​

Mono Fox Citizens integrate with the Monoscan block explorer as profile pictures:

  • When viewing an address on Monoscan, the Mono Fox Citizen NFT (if held) is displayed as the address profile picture
  • The NFT metadata includes the country and theme, which Monoscan shows as a badge
  • Addresses with a Mono Fox Citizen are visually distinguished from those without
  • Since country NFTs are soulbound, the profile picture is permanent and cannot be changed by transferring the NFT

How It Works​

  1. Monoscan queries the Mono Fox Citizens contract for each address
  2. If the address holds a Fox NFT, the token's image URI is fetched
  3. The image is displayed as a circular avatar next to the address
  4. The country name and theme are shown as hover-over metadata

Technical Details​

Contract​

The Mono Fox Citizens contract is deployed on Testnet. The contract address will be published on the Contract Addresses page when minting opens.

Metadata Format​

Each NFT's metadata follows the standard ERC-721 metadata JSON schema:

{
  "name": "Mono Fox Citizen #142 - Japan Heritage",
  "description": "A Mono Fox representing the heritage of Japan. Soulbound to the original claimer.",
  "image": "ipfs://QmExample.../japan-heritage.png",
  "attributes": [
    { "trait_type": "Country", "value": "Japan" },
    { "trait_type": "Theme", "value": "Heritage" },
    { "trait_type": "Type", "value": "Country" },
    { "trait_type": "Soulbound", "value": "Yes" }
  ]
}

Special NFTs include additional traits:

{
  "attributes": [
    { "trait_type": "Type", "value": "Special" },
    { "trait_type": "Soulbound", "value": "No" },
    { "trait_type": "Rarity", "value": "Golden Fox" },
    { "trait_type": "Milestone", "value": "500 Claims" }
  ]
}

Soulbound Implementation​

Country NFTs override the ERC-721 _update function to prevent transfers after minting:

function _update(address to, uint256 tokenId, address auth) internal override returns (address) {
    address from = _ownerOf(tokenId);
    // Allow minting (from == address(0)), block all transfers
    if (from != address(0) && !isSpecial[tokenId]) {
        revert SoulboundTransferBlocked();
    }
    return super._update(to, tokenId, auth);
}

Special NFTs (where isSpecial[tokenId] is true) bypass this restriction and transfer normally.

FAQ​

Can I claim more than one Mono Fox Citizen?

No. Each wallet can claim exactly one country-theme NFT. You cannot claim a second one, even if you have multiple wallets that completed Phase 3.

What if my preferred country-theme is taken?

Choose a different theme for the same country, or pick a different country. The availability map on the Citizens page shows what is still open in real time.

Can I trade my country NFT?

No. Country NFTs are soulbound. They cannot be transferred, sold, or burned.

Do Mono Fox Citizens have any utility beyond the profile picture?

Yes. Holding a Mono Fox Citizen qualifies you for Golden Fox milestone draws and proves your early participation in the Monolythium ecosystem. Future utility may be announced as the ecosystem grows.

What if I lose access to my wallet?

Since country NFTs are soulbound, they cannot be recovered to a new wallet. Secure your wallet seed phrase carefully.

Will there be more NFT collections?

Mono Fox Citizens is the genesis collection tied to the campaign. Future collections will be announced separately.
