lost Channels NFTs

We understand the frustration! It's perfectly fine not being able to see the 3D scene hidden in the image straight away. If you're not familiar with autostereograms it may take some practice. Click here to see the instructions.

Not from us and not until they're discovered. Lost Channels NFTs have to be unlocked before they may be bought or sold. You can unlock the Lost Channels by collecting & holding all nine fragments of the same Lost Channel. Once the Lost Channel is discovered, it can be sold/bought like any other token.

The fragments are the collectible parts of the Lost Channels. They're equal in size and are almost identical in appearance. In reality, every single fragment is entirely unique and may contain the elements of the final 3D scene. To see the hidden images, though, you may have to put your laser eyes to work.

You'll need to collect nine fragments of the same Lost Channel to discover it. Fragments can be bought from the official OpenSea collection and/or from the other member.

You may be able to purchase the fragments from the official Lost Channel Fragments collection on OpenSea. Make sure to follow us on social media, so you don't miss out on the next drop.

Technically, you may be able to buy all nine fragments of the same Lost Channel from the project directly. However, the Lost Channels discovered this way may not carry as much value as the channels with an extensive trade history.

The fragments are listed at 0.02 ETH on the official collection. The price of the new fragments may and probably will go up with every new drop. The fragments may also be acquired from the other collectors at the market value. To avoid the unnecessary and costly gas fees the fragments are listed on the Polygon blockchain.

We assign the same value to all fragments when released. However, many fragments contain elements of the final 3D scene which may impact the value in the secondary market.

There are 50 Lost Channels and 450 fragments. To make sure the fragments won't end up in the hands of a few, we'll be releasing them in stages.

We will consider creating additional Lost Channels if the first stage of the project is a success. The original plan was to create 1,000 Lost Channels NFTs, which is an absolute limit.

Make sure that you have all nine fragments of the same Lost Channel, i.e., CH3201100001 CH3201100010 CH3201100011 CH3201100100 CH3201100101 CH3201100110 CH3201100111 CH3201101000 CH3201101001.

The first one-two digits are the channel number, the rest of the digits correspond to the fragment number in a sequence.

Send us a message from the contact form below and we'll be in touch with the next steps. As a general rule, the collector would need to pay the gas fees.

Should the project succeed, we'll be looking into the possible ways to make this step automated.

This is one of the risks and we're currently looking into different possible solutions. For example, a patch fragment may be released and awarded at random to one of the current holders. We definitely don't want the collectors to suffer due to the actions of one individual.

To create decentralization and encourage more users to participate in the project we'll be giving away some fragments for free. Follow us on social media for the latest updates on the current giveaways.

Some people may have difficulty seeing a 3D scene on a random dot (white noise) autostereogram. The green images you see on the Lost Channels website are image (texture) autostereogram designed to make it easier to see the 3D scene. For more help with viewing the images, please visit the following guide.

Selling fragments of the discovered channels is prohibited! We're looking into possible solutions to make this technically impossible to do. We may also take the necessary actions against the offending party.

Important! Before purchasing a fragment from someone else, please make sure that the channel has not been yet discovered by looking at this website.

Should the first stage of the project succeed, that is we can see a lot of interest and participation, we'll be looking into:

• Adding more lost channels
• Improving the quality of autostereograms
• Working on additional textures (filters) that can be used to modify the look and clarity of the discovered lost channels
• Making the whole process more automated and mainstreamed
• Bringing the project to the masses through marketing
• Getting more people involved in the project

The Lost Channels project carries the same risks as any other NFT project. In addition to these risks, there are also some additional risks involved, including but not limited to:

• An individual collector buys out a large number of fragments to manipulate the price
• The participants sell the fragments of the discovered Lost Channels
• A particular collector destroys the fragment or holds it for a long time, preventing the other collectors from discovering the Lost Channel

Important! Please exercise caution and make your own decisions, like any other NFT project there are many risks involved.
