NFTs - Getting started with Blokpax

Post last revised February 15, 2022

UPDATE: There is a Blokpax Lighting Drop happening Feb 22, which is a great chance to start your experience.  Link to more info is at the end of the post in the "Recap" section.

I recently made a blog post about NFTs ( check it out ), and had Blokpax as one of my examples.  I decided to pull together a post to help anyone interested in getting into NFTs that likes the idea behind Blokpax.  Instead of trying to develop all the instructions myself, I am going to leverage existing guides as much as possible.  If you ran across this page but are not familiar with Blokpax, I would suggest you go here first ( https://blokpax.com/faq ) then come back.

Sample Infinite Moment (IM)

High level these are the steps you will need to take:
  • Sign up for Blokpax
  • Create a wallet
  • Setup OpenSea
  • Join Discord
  • Enjoy the magic
I would recommend following these steps on whatever device you plan to use most - so if your going to use your computer, set it up there.  If you will be on your phone, set it up there.

Sign up for Blokpax

As of right now, there is a promotion going on where new users will get 5 free starter packs for an upcoming drop that should happen on February 22, 2022.  Here is my referral link if you would like to use it:


If someone else referred you, then feel free to use their link so I don't take their referral.

Create a wallet

If you don’t know what a crypto wallet is, read up on it here:


If you just want to use MetaMask ( which seems to be the wallet recommended by Blokpax ) go here:


If you want to look at other wallet options this page shows a list of OpenSea compatible wallets, but keep in mind it might not provide the same experience


NOTE: Make sure you link your Blokpax account with your wallet.  If you use the MetaMask directions above, the steps are listed on that page.

Setup OpenSea

Once you have your crypto wallet ready, you need to set up your OpenSea account - this is where you can buy/sell/trade the NFTs.  Go to the link below and follow the steps under the “3) OpenSea” section:


Join Discord

The Blokpax Discord is a great place to find information, ask questions and trade with others.


If you need to understand why Discord is important, check this page out:


Recap

If you follow the steps above, you should have enough to get you started in the right direction.  If you plan to make trades or purchases, you will need to continue to read up.  Here are some suggested sources of information:

Lightning Drop 1 Info - Details on the upcoming (Feb 22) razz drop.

https://opensea.io/collection/infinitemoments - Check out Infinite Moments (IM) cards which is one of the main aspects of Blokpax.

https://blokpax.substack.com/  - This page has multiple useful guides.

Discord - On the Blokpax discord there are multiple channels with useful information under the "New 2 Blokpax?" heading, I would recommend you go through each one!  If you still have questions, there is a #questions-and-answers channel.

Other useful information

I will update this section moving forward, but for now the steps above should get you ready for the next free drop.
