In Brief:
- PAK has gifted his haters unique new type of NFTs.
- These NFTs are named as Hate, and are immutable.
- Pak is the only person who can sell, transfer or burn these tokens.
It all started in October when Pak called out his haters on Twitter and promised them a special Hate NFTs.
He asked them to reply with an early tweet of them hating him, and provide an address to collect the NFTs.
He also pointed out that this is only for genuine haters and not wannabe ones. And that only old tweets, which are posted before his own, will receive an NFT and not the new ones.
Later Pak released “The Blacklist” via google spreadsheet, which contained twitter accounts and their tweets in question. He also added a bribe address.
Then on November 19, Pak deployed a new ERC-721 contract. In this contract, he minted 30 new tokens each of them with identical metadata.
He described these NFT tokens as “immutable” and named them “Hate”. These hate NFTs are depicted by a heart in the center.
One of Pak’s approved haters Christopher Adams’ Ethereum account was first to mint the “Hate” NFT. Later every hater’s address from the list received these tokens.
Now, these haters had no clue on what to do about these NFTs. Some of them tried to make money out of and listed these tokens on Opensea. But, when one of them tried to transfer their token, the transaction failed.
Now ironically Pak haters had his tokens which they can neither sell nor sell or burn. They possessed this token but can’t use it.
After deep diving into the code of these tokens these haters discovered that there are custom functions through which PAK had made it impossible to transfer these tokens. Pak has created “Hate” NFTs such that only contract admin can mint, burn or transfer them to any other address.
After 24 hours PAK ended the conundrum by transferring the hate NFTs to their address, changed their metadata, and moved them back to their own wallet.
Pak recently launched an NFT project Lost poet, it was so much loved by collectors that it gained over $70 million in just 2 hours of its launch.
