What are Tallys?

Tallys is the first-ever NFT collection from Talus, featuring our beloved mascot, "Tally," in a series of 5,555 uniquely generated NFTs. With 200+ custom traits spanning categories like Skin, Eyes, Mouth, Hats, Clothing, and more, each Tally is guaranteed to be one-of-a-kind. Even better, there’s a chance to mint some extremely rare traits, so keep an eye out! Also look out for more info on Tally's lore, which we’ll be releasing very soon!

Minting Timeline

We’ve broken the mint into three main phases, each with its own perks and pricing. Here’s how it works:

Day 1: Spawn (March 3rd, Monday)

• Who: Top 100 leaderboard winners, partners, and others eligible for free/guaranteed mints.
• Details: These individuals have already been notified or have the “Spawn” role on Discord.
• Time to Mint: 48 hours to guarantee your free mint allocation.
• Supply: 600 total NFTs reserved for Spawn mints.
• Price: Free! However, gas fees still need to be covered by you to mint.

Day 2: Tadpole (March 4th, Tuesday)

• Who: Whitelisted community members, partners, and community tournament winners with discounted pricing (WL).
• Details: These individuals have or will receive a “Tadpole” role on Discord by February 28th.
• Time to Mint: 24 hours (guaranteed).
• Supply: 2230 NFTs available at a discounted price.

Day 3 & Beyond: Public Mint (Starting March 5th, Wednesday)

• Who: Anyone and everyone.
• Details: Mint is open to the public on a first-come, first-served (FCFS) basis until the collection sells out.
• Price: 33 $SUI.

Note: If you qualify for a free or discounted mint, you can claim it at any point during the overall mint window. However, once the public mint starts, your NFT is no longer guaranteed so it’s best to act quickly.
