Loot(for Adventurers) is a Ethereum-based NFT project that was launched on August 27, 2021 by Dom Hafmann and made waves within the community from day one.

The Loot NFTs are tokenized lists of fantasy adventuring gear that the community can build upon with. There was no minting cost for each Loot NFT– just the Ethereum network’s gas fee for the transaction. A total of 8,000 of the NFTs were available, and were all claimed within the span of a few hours.

“Loot is unique– the first project of its kind. With no company, art, team, or attributes, Loot makes it impossible to gate-keep any creative decisions,” their website writes, “Loot is unfiltered, uncensorable, a building block for stories,experiences,games, and more, in the hand of community at no cost. Loot pursues complete decentralization from day one.”

In other words, it is a prompt. And the community is responding by building: they are creating rarity guides and other tools, developing generative artwork programs and forming guilds. There are derivative projects in the work focused on companion animals, supplies, lore, music, and quite a bit more. Now there is a forum to help everyone better coordinate projects as Loot perhaps takes shape as a proper, community-driven game experience.

Meanwhile, Hofmann has launched “Synthetic Loot” Essentially, it is a smart contract– that is, a chunk of code that performs set instructions– that allows anyone with an Ethereum wallet to participate in future Loot endeavors without owning one of the actual NFTs

Creators building on top of Loot can choose to recognize Synthetic Loot as a way to allow a wider range of participants to get involved in the ecosystem, while still being able to differentiate between original Loot and Synthetic Loot.
