Before we dive in, a quick update on Zaid's Onyx Cannon:
Last week, we took the time to personally reach out via DM to any Onyx holder who hadn't already activated their Onyx holder role and filled out their details to claim the limited print. The move was very successful, but we still have a few people who we were unable to DM because we couldn't locate their Twitter. The following people still need to take action to claim their print, please feel free to reach out to a team member if you're on the list!

- 0xcEc01e6af695B589F709EA9A0Fee45Afe6276580
- loadout.eth

- 0x3E1dE01b7FEdd44Eb928677cD7D793Cd2B801810

If anyone reading knows how to get in touch with the above Onyx holders, please give us a heads up so we can help them secure their print 🙏🏻 

Alright, now on to the recap!

**Comms**
♒ Reached out to Onyx Cannon holders to facilitate print claims. We successfully got 11 people to complete the process to claim!

In our update last Monday, we mentioned epic content. Some refinements took longer than expected, but we’re now 100% ready to launch our final 3 SORCE CODE teasers and our 1st pillar video this week! It’s time to start bringing SORCE CODE to center stage- if the entire community shows max love on our Twitter posts, it’ll make all the difference in showcasing our hard work to the rest of the Web3 community. We can’t wait for you all to see what we’ve been putting together!

Welcome to the latest edition of The Weekly SORCE @everyone!

If you’re new here, this is an update where we go over **what our team did during the week prior to provide as much transparency**y to the community as possible. If you missed our last update, check it out here: https://discord.com/channels/938593557760065547/938593558426943491/1082396536136290406 

Here’s what we did last week, please be sure to **read the Development section** as it includes a key update to the SORCE CODE launch date.

**Community**
♒ Hosted individual community member calls to gain feedback, make friends, and share some alpha
♒ Hosted a community-wide voice chat event to go over our upcoming SORCE CODE drop and answer questions.
♒ Added more community questions to our SORCE CODE FAQ, which has been used to write the upcoming SORCE CODE Medium article.

**Development**
♒ Our lead developer broke his arm while snowboarding and is unable to work for what will likely be two weeks. Development for SORCE CODE is 95% completed and will be wrapped up upon his return. Because of this accident, the SORCE CODE launch that was slated for April 5th is being pushed back an estimated two weeks to match his recovery time (this could be increased or decreased depending on how quickly he is able to return). We appreciate everyone's patience tremendously and will have a specific launch date announced for you in the coming weeks.
♒ Finalized helmet renders for all completed new DR1VER

@everyone 

⚡️ SORCE CODE Update ⚡️

Over the next couple weeks, we will be leaking our upcoming SORCE CODE drop collaborators on our Twitter page for the world to see. Here is a full update on where our team is at with the drop!

Previously we communicated the drop would occur at the end of January/beginning of February, but our timeline has shifted and we currently believe that the drop will be ready by the end of February; however, we will not announce a specific date until we are 100% ready. We’re here to provide transparency into our process and insight into why we’re having to shift the drop. Rest assured, all of the decisions we’ve made have been to provide the absolute best experience and highest quality drop possible so that we can continue to grow the Cultivate brand and deliver value to holders. Here’s what has been going on behind the scenes:

Designs - originally the SORCE CODE drop was going to have 3 collaborators featured, but we wanted to provide as much diversity to the collection as possible while creating more opportunity for community growth. As a result, we now have 12 collaborators confirmed and are looking at potentially having closer to 15 collaborators on the drop; we will be finalizing our list soon. Adding more collaborators means we’ve had to spend much more time perfecting designs for SORCE CODE and coordinating with collaborators, but we are confident that the final product will be much more epic than originally planned! These collaborators will be featured in the leaks that you will see leading into the SORCE CODE drop in the coming weeks.

Development - Creating dynamic NFT’s means you need to have tens of thousands of possible combinations pre-rendered before the drop. This takes a lot of time and typically prevents projects from being able to add 3D traits and evolve the collection through on-chain customization, as adding new traits over time creates an exponential amount of renders to create, which is not feasible for ongoing customization past the first SORCE CODE drop.. This complexity is a major reason why there aren’t a lot of 3D projects in Web3 with an animated, photorealistic video NFT like our DR1VER. Right now, we are working on a novel solution that solves this problem completely; this innovation has never been done before in Web3 and it will enable us to further elevate our collections in the future. We’re in uncharted territory, and this solution is taking more time than expected to test and verify that it works 100% as we believe it will. 

Site experience - We are building an innovative system that enables you to visualize what a trait will look like on your helmet before burning it onto the blockchain. We are adding this feature to ensure that DR1VER holders can be 100% happy with their design combination before spending money on gas to customize. This is taking a bit longer than we anticipated as well because, for example, a problem we are working towards solving now is creating an efficient collision detection system that notifies you if you’re attempting to add traits to your DR1VER that may collide or interfere with each other during customization. This will help ensure that your DR1VER looks as epic as possible.

Staking - We are creating a very intricate charging mechanic for your unpowered SORCE VIAL that will play a big role in the future of SORCE CODE enhancements. The staking contract has been finalized, but we still have work to do in terms of tying this mechanic to the DR1VER customization experience in a way that provides maximum value to holders.

We appreciate your patience and support more than ever and are incredibly excited to deliver this drop to DR1VERs. We’re here to answer any questions that you may have in 👤︱general-chat and will continue to keep you up to date on our progress moving forward.

@everyone 

**We've made the decision to shut down The Council of SORCE.** 

With the channels dedicated to The Council being barren and in a state of zero-value-add, we recognize that keeping them open could do us more harm than good, especially in scenarios when someone new joins our Discord to discover what Cultivate is all about. Rest assured, **we deeply value intimate community involvement** and will now begin a period of exploration to find the best way to foster it in today's environment; your feedback and ideas here are key here. 

The Council remains an idea that we are all fond of; therefore, we are leaving the door open to potentially pursue a relaunch further down the line. We will know that the timing is right when there is an abundance of demand and our team has a higher capacity to ensure their vision for meaningful collaboration is achieved. 

As always, **we appreciate your support and camaraderie now more than ever,** let's keep building Cultivate, together. LFC!

Thank you to all who participated in our Discord conversations over the last few days regarding mint close date. After discussing with you all, we have made the decision as a team to ***extend the mint window indefinitely.***

Here's why:

We care about our collectors & investors, and we believe that cutting supply for a potential short term boost in the floor price is not what is going to move the needle in helping us achieve success in becoming a top project, brand, and community for the long run.

Our belief is that the biggest lever we can pull to create a successful project & community is to **continuously deliver the best assets, content, collabs, and tools in Web3**

**Our upcoming free drop for SORCE CODE and the DR1VER Enhancements** is a big part of our short-term vision in delivering more value and utility to the DR1VER Genesis Collection.

**We are betting on ourselves as a team and want to invest in our community **to take this project to the next level, and we appreciate those who stand by our side & believe in us, and want to continue building Cultivate, together.

Hey @everyone ,

New Education content "How to use your DR1VER AR Lens" is **LIVE**! Go check it out in #🧙｜education 

For those of you who were having issues setting up your **AR Lens** on Zoom, Twitch, Google Meet, etc. for this week's creator contest, this should bring a lot of clarity.

Feel free to ask any questions for support in #🎨︱creator-support 

Remember, the AR contest is going until Thursday! We are giving away 5 DR1VER helmets. 

**Be sure to share your submission on Twitter and Tag @CULT1VATE**

The A and B swaps sometimes. Be sure to select the proper choice!

Thank you @everyone  for Voting

It's quite clear that our community is wanting to push the boundaries and innovate with **on-chain traits**. We are excited to announce that we will be officially moving forward with this decision.

We have another decision to make internally in regards to extending the mint period. As you know the original choice was to **keep mint open for at least one month**. We would like to know what the community feels is best by adding another vote below. **The team will make a final decision by Thursday**.

We encourage you to share your thoughts in #👤︱general-chat  chat until then.

Hello @everyone ,

We have some exciting news to share today. Since the beginning, **CULT1VATE has been pushing for interoperability across the Metaverse**.

Today we are proud to share that you can now access the first stage of bringing **DR1VER** to **Augmented Reality**. Download your AR Lens on our website *(www.cult1vate.com)*.  Lens installation instructions are in the download file.

Using either **Snapchat** or the **Snap Cam** desktop application you can use the **AR DR1VER Helmet** when taking videos and pictures, or when on a work call in Zoom or Meet. As long as you have a camera the possibilities are endless!

This functionality was important to us since day one as it enables users who don't have the skills to use blender or other advanced software to tap into the same creative potential from the simplicity of your own phone!

We have also included new **3D file downloads, titled ‘PFP’ and ‘Native’, which we will elaborate on soon**.

**So without further ado, go tap into your DR1VERs creative potential!**

Hello @everyone ,

As discussed in our Discord Stage a few weeks ago, we will be having a **final vote scheduled this Thursday** for whether we keep the new trait mechanic **on chain or off chain**. 

It may be best to do some final discussion on the topic with other holders in #👤︱general-chat  before you make your decision.

*Some simple differences for each:*

**On-Chain:**
Not only will you be able to visualize your enhancement traits in our upcoming **Creator Tool**, but you will be given the opportunity to apply your enhancement traits to the **NFT metadata** itself.

**Off-Chain:**
You can add enhancement traits to your **DR1VER** solely through a creative tool, outputting a render, video, etc, but would not be able to add these traits to the **NFT metadata** itself.

Be ready for some other major updates this week regarding:

1️⃣: AR Files
2️⃣: 7 Contest Winners (Ends this Wednesday)
3️⃣: New videos in #🧙｜education 
4️⃣: Council members, expect a mass call sometime this Sat/Sun. More details shared soon.

The creativity you all have shared has been incredible! Keep up the work! **LFC!**

Hello @DR1VERS  and @SORCE KEEPERS

*Winners of contests #1-3 will get either a Void, Light, Silent Ocean, Flare, Eternal, or Passion.*

*Lastly the winner of contest #4 will receive a Dynasty!*

Hey @everyone 

With **3D files & AR filter delivery around the corner**, we want to give a little taste of what true digital asset utility will look like.

We also want to thank everyone that has submitted into joining The Council of SORCE. ♒ 

Our team couldn’t be more excited seeing the amount of people that are interested in joining to help grow our community. 🏘️ 

We will be opening communications within each ring of the council starting today. Those that showed interest will have access to their council of choice. 

This being the next step, the goal is for everyone to get to know each other and begin organizing. This week, a calendar schedule will be shared. Each Council ring will have multiple discord chats available, starting next week. 🔊 

The application submissions are still being approved, if you wish to apply feel free to anytime by using the links provided in each Council Forum. Let a team member know if you submitted a recent application so we can give you permission to post. ✅ 

The underlying goal is for each Council to be 100% community run with Cultivate providing resources and inspiration to encourage a strong community initiative. LFC! <a:redsiren:916494841813299240>

@everyone 

Thank you for your patience! The mint website is back up! ✊

Let's keep seeing what traits you unlock! ♒

Hello @everyone 

We are happy to see almost 2500 DR1VERS have been minted already in less than 2 days! 🔥

A lot of you have been super lucky with your traits! 🤞

Currently the website is down for optimization updates. No worries though as it should be back up in around 5 hours. ⏳

Lucky for you, the mint window is open for at least a month so you still have plenty of time to mint later! 

Until then, keep up the energy, we love seeing your support! Stay Sorcey! ♒

<a:redsiren:916494841813299240>  Looks like minting is running smoothly for now. <a:redsiren:916494841813299240> 

We will keep you updated if any issue arise. For now, it looks like OpenSea is having a few bugs displaying the DR1VER collection on our profile as well banner image and total items minted. We are in talks with OpenSea Devs to have this fixed on their end.

@everyone

<a:redsiren:916494841813299240>  MINT IS LIVE <a:redsiren:916494841813299240> 

As @everyone converts their GENESIS SORCE VIAL into their new DR1VER GENESIS helmets, they will also receive a new SORCE VIAL [Unpowered]. FYI Do not stress about GAS FEES right now. You have at least one month to mint.

Our team is excited about introducing this mechanic into our ecosystem, and hope this will bring a new experience in how you interact with your digital assets in the Cultivate Universe.

Please see the infographics provided for more information on our SORCE VIAL's charging mechanism, which will be a key feature. In the near future we will be diving deeper into this exciting mechanic.

As we approach the DR1VER mint on Oct. 21st, we are excited to share in the excitement within our community!

Something we are really excited about is the formation of The Council, a space where people who are
passionate about Cultivate and its success, can come together and support the community and each other.

Our focus is to provide resources and attention into developing, what we feel will be a big part of Cultivates success moving forward, post DR1VER mint.

The next steps required to get further involved in **The Council of SORCE** is to submit your information through the links provided here. We also created a category section named “The Council of SORCE” where you can find access and information for all six rings of the council.

As of now these will be the first **six rings** of The Council. Please click on the links below to apply for a role in the category you're most interested in contributing towards. Take the next step in becoming a key member of the Cultivate Community by filling out the brief questionnaires. LFC!!!

Cultivate is a metaverse native lifestyle brand, creating digital wearables and 3D assets for the metaverse of both today & tomorrow. Cultivate started because we desired to see a digital world that was indistinguishable from reality, and allowed us to bring our wildest creative visions to life. Their drops are developed by top 3D designers, developers and production specialists and are formatted for use across the 2D and 3D metaverse. Whether you are a creator, gamer or degen, we believe you should be able to use your digital wearables & NFT's wherever you see fit. Cultivate want to create a world where you can derive utility and functionality from your NFTs wherever you go. Their wearables reflect our vision of a coming world full of “Metaverse Creators” - those who design content and experiences around the NFT assets in their collections. This is why all Cultivate assets are yours to use in your content, your videos, your games, and your identity throughout metaverse environments. Whether you engage with augmented reality, immersive 3D social spaces, play-to-earn gaming worlds... nothing is off limits.
