DOCUMENTATION
The mint.
ten thousand memes is a Solana NFT collection built on Metaplex Core. Every NFT is functionally identical — a key into the ten thousand tokens ecosystem. The art exists; the utility is the point.
01
Overview
The collection is 10,000 NFTs, minted in two phases on Solana mainnet.
There is no per-wallet cap and no random distribution. The first phase is reserved for the waitlist allowlist at a discount; the second phase is open to anyone.

Phases
Presale
Open to allowlisted wallets only at 0.1 SOL. Allowlist is the set of wallets registered through the waitlist app. Phase runs for a fixed window; check the live countdown on the home page.
Server-side allowlist enforcement uses a third-party signer guard: every presale mint transaction is co-signed by our allowlist signer. A request from a non-allowlisted wallet fails before it reaches the chain. No merkle proofs, no client-side bypass.
Public
Anyone can mint at 0.2 SOL until the collection sells out or the public window closes — whichever comes first.
Soulbound during mint
The collection is configured with a permanent-freeze plugin until the mint completes. This prevents pre-launch flipping. Once mint-out hits, an admin tx unfreezes the whole collection in a single onchain action — assets become fully transferable on Magic Eden and Tensor.
03
Allowlist
The allowlist is the source-of-truth for the presale guard. Wallets register through the waitlist app — registration closes when the presale starts.
The mint app queries the waitlist's Supabase tables directly — there is no duplicate database. If your wallet appears in the waitlist registration table, you can mint at presale price.
Register at the mint home — wallet connection is the only requirement.
04
Fees & royalty
Mint proceeds go directly to the project treasury — no escrow, no vesting. Magic Eden and Tensor enforce the 5.0% creator royalty by default; this funds ongoing protocol work and phase-two development.
05
Tech stack
Built on industry-standard primitives so wallets, marketplaces, and indexers work out of the box on day one.

FAQ
Is the art the same for every NFT?
Visually each NFT shows one of a thousand artworks (the same image is shared across multiple NFTs), but functionally every NFT in the collection is identical and grants the same access to phase two.
What does the NFT do later?
Phase two pairs each NFT with a meme token launch slot. Details are subject to change and live in a separate spec — track the project X account for canonical updates.
Can I mint more than one?
Yes. There is no per-wallet cap. The mint widget supports batching up to 100 per click; you sign once and the app submits in parallel.
Where do my NFTs show up?
Phantom and Solflare display Core assets natively after mint. Magic Eden and Tensor index the collection once enough mints are in. core.metaplex.com/explorer is the canonical view per-asset.
Why is the collection frozen at mint?
To prevent flipping during the mint window. The freeze is collection-level (permanent-freeze plugin) and is lifted in a single admin transaction once the mint completes.
Can the team change prices mid-mint?
The guards (price, dates, allowlist signer) live onchain and can be updated by the admin keypair. We won't change prices mid-phase without announcing first.
