Say Hello the SolPunks Way: The !gm and !gn Commands!

As we continue to innovate and bring fresh experiences to our community, we want to highlight a beloved feature we rolled out around Christmas last year: the !gm and !gn bot commands.

While not entirely unique in the Solana ecosystem, we’ve added our special touch to make these commands truly engaging for our SolPunks community.

Good Morning and Good Night, SolPunks Style!

How does it work?

• Verified Holders: When you type !gm or !gn in our Discord, the bot pulls a random SolPunk from your wallet (if you are verified as a holder) and displays it with a stylish pixel background – a sunny greeting for !gm and a starry backdrop for !gn. It’s the perfect way to start and end your day with your favorite NFTs!
  
• Non-Holders: If you’re not a verified SolPunk holder, don’t worry! The bot will show you a random SolPunk from the floor. Plus, there’s a handy button that links directly to the marketplace where you can purchase that SolPunk. It’s a seamless way to find and buy new favorites!
  
• Social Sharing: Both !gm and !gn commands come with a share on Twitter button. Click it to effortlessly share your SolPunk greeting with the world, complete with the cool pixel background. (this is exclusive for holders)
  
• Custom Messages: Want to add a personal touch? You can extend the !gm and !gn commands with your custom message. Just type your message after the command.

Why does it matter?

This feature does more than just add a fun twist to your daily greetings:

• Dynamic Discord: It keeps our Discord lively and interactive, with members regularly sharing their SolPunks.
  
• Social Media Engagement: It boosts our visibility on social media as holders share their SolPunks, attracting new fans and potential collectors.
  
• Easy Purchasing: For non-holders, it provides an easy gateway to explore and buy SolPunks directly from the marketplace.

Future Plans: Rewards and More!

We’re always looking for ways to enhance your experience, and we’re excited to share some future plans:

• Rewards for Sharing: In the future, we might introduce rewards for using the share to Twitter button.
  
• Special Themes: We’re planning to introduce seasonal and event-themed backgrounds for the !gm and !gn commands, making your SolPunk greetings even more festive and fun.
  
• Leaderboard Integration: We’re considering integrating these commands with our leaderboards system. Frequent users could earn points or climb a new “Social Raiders” leaderboard 👀, adding another layer of competition and engagement. What do you think about this? Let us know on our discord.

Looking Ahead: SolPunks Bot for All!

We’re excited to announce that these features, along with many others like the Leaderboards and NFT of the Day, will soon be available as a service to all Solana NFT collections.

Designed to turn holders into passionate collectors and foster a vibrant community, these bot features are a testament to our commitment to innovation, even during the bear market.

The Future is Bright for SolPunks

We’ve got big plans ahead, with even more exciting features in the pipeline. The future of SolPunks is looking brighter than ever, and we can’t wait to share what’s next with you all. Stay tuned, because you’re in for some amazing surprises!
