The Inception of The Collective

The collective was established within the Shy Boys Get No Candy Discord server, which was a community centered around TradingLord and his Twitter Presence.

The "Shyboys Get No Candy" slogan remains central to the Collective's message, emphasizing the importance of taking deliberate, goal-oriented actions in order to achieve one's objectives, regardless of one's lifestyle.

Within the original Discord, valuable insights and perspectives were shared daily, leading to the formation of a core group that benefited from acquiring knowledge together in the early stages of the project. It was during this phase the idea for the Candy Collective was explored and further conceptualized.

The vision was clear.

Craft mechanisms that reward loyal participants of the collective, explore new possibilities provided by WEB3.0 advancement to provide real utility through the NFT membership pass, and create a fun and chill environment to ride the waves of crypto adoption while enjoying the finest content daily.

Collective Identity

The Candy Collective aims to promote a mindset of "Is it in the interest of the collective?". This encourages members to prioritize the growth and success of the collective as a whole, rather than individual gain. Ultimately, this mindset is what sets the Candy Collective apart and allows it to achieve great things as a unified and powerful force in the crypto space.

Developments and Progress

Since the inception of the project, we have implemented the necessary structures to efficiently handle the feat of fairly distributing the value harnessed through our collective awareness.

As our strength increases in numbers, the main goal for the future is to onboard as many people as possible to enrich the community with new perspectives and to allow us to further increase our recognition in the space.

This positive feedback loop allows the collective to grow and prosper while gaining social recognition, opening doors to further increase giveback capabilities, and creating opportunities.

With the help of existing members, as well as new participants in the ecosystem, we will keep pushing the boundaries of what's possible to reward holders with unique experiences, insights, perspectives, and fresh concepts.

Game Theory and Pill Mint

With the fundamental frameworks established, the primary focus transitioned from the conceptualization and implementation of the structure to the initiation of the onboarding phase.

This transition aimed to facilitate the integration of new members into the Collective and enhance each individual's experience within the community by bringing in new and interesting perspectives.

The onboarding process was executed in two distinct phases: The Whitelist Phase and The Open Mint. The Pill Mint was designed to generate further visibility to maximize the inclusion of new participants within the Collective.

The Pill Meta

Introducing the Candy Pills - what do they do, and what do they look like?

There are nine different colored Pills, each possessing a distinct function. Collecting different Pills allows holders to personalize their candy experience and devise unique strategies for optimizing candy production.

This introduces the first of many gamification elements that we plan to implement in the future, providing an enjoyable experience while rewarding our holders for their loyalty and contributions.

Certain pills will offer advantages to new holders, while others cater to Genesis holders. Some may even introduce completely new features.

Possessing a full set of pills will grant a special bonus.

Internal Structuring

Our primary platform is Discord, where the collective comes together to exchange market insights and enjoy top-notch content daily as they navigate the waves of crypto adoption into the mainstream.

Over the months, we have nurtured a diverse collective of fascinating individuals from all walks of life. This has led to the creation of an environment where various perspectives on numerous aspects of life are shared daily, challenged, and ultimately enriched through the collective experience.

Discord Structuring

To categorize our holders and fairly distribute value based on the level of trust each member has placed in the Collective, we have devised a structure that consists of two categories, allowing for a just and equitable process.

These ranks consist of the Candy and Whale Rank.

To attain Whale status, you must accumulate a total of 45 Candy Points in your wallets. In this point system, an NFT from our Genesis collection holds a value of 9 Points, whilst a Candy Pill is worth 1 point.

The point values are derived from the ratio of the original mint prices of each collection, ensuring a fair distribution of value among holders. To achieve Candy status, you need to hold at least one Candy or Pill of your choice.

Candy Rank

The Candy rank provides access to the Candy Cartel, which encompasses various elements such as celebrating hustle culture, lifestyle topics, and a forum for member input.

In addition, it includes trading channels where members exchange views on market trends and emerging opportunities. This rank also allows you to engage in discussions and voting processes that shape the collective's overall development and direction.

Whale Rank

The Whale rank provides an exclusive environment for our most loyal holders. With this rank, you gain access to a dedicated section of the Discord server, allowing you to exchange ideas and develop a network of fellow Whales.

Additionally, you will have access to all channels and enjoy exclusive behind-the-scenes insights into the workings of the Candy Collective Machinery.

Role Distribution

We have designed a dynamic ranking system that enables individuals to decide how they want to structure their holdings.

We have devised five categories for each collection, and a combination of holdings from both collections, totalling more than 45 Candy Points, will grant you access to the Whale chat.

This approach allows for flexibility and personalization in achieving your desired rank status.

Endgoals and Purpose

The collective's primary purpose is to empower individuals by creating a network that provides access to resources, information, and perspectives in the crypto space that are typically reserved for high-profile investors. By developing and nurturing a collective network, we enable each member to make informed decisions.

Our ultimate objective is to create an environment that benefits our members with valuable insights into the latest crypto trends and allows for early identification of emerging opportunities. This empowers individuals to make the most of these opportunities while being rewarded for their contributions.

We believe that the most effective foundation for achieving our ultimate goal is to form a cyber tribe, where value creation and productive perspective formation emerge from being part of a group with aligned values.
