Within the CyberConnect ecosystem, a ccProfile NFT represents an onchain identity and underpins the social graph, interest graph, and all kinds of ownership of assets, social data, and content. Whether it’s an NFT, an ENS name, a Twitter handle, or a DID, we map all of them to one holistic identity - the ccProfile NFT. Developers can integrate the ccProfile NFT into their dApp/protocol to benefit from the existing network of social identities being continuously enriched by all CyberConnect integration products and protocols including Link3.

In practice, a ccProfile NFT is a prerequisite for users to post content, issue endorsements or establish connections. ccProfiles are fundamental to all onchain social interactions.

In light of this importance and our belief that the next iteration of online social should be open, user-centric and at scale, we have worked hard to get the infra ready for mass adoption and now we are opening up the ccProfile minting to everyone.

Here we bring the recent updates on ccProfile minting policy:

ccProfile is Supported on BNB Chain

We’ve opened up ccProfile minting on BNB Chain. Moving forward, users can mint ccProfile on BNB Chain. The cost related to minting will be paid in $BNB. ccProfile minting on Ethereum main net will be paused during the Connected 2023 Hackathon from Feb 7th to March 13th.

Find more information on CyberConnect and the Connected 2023 Hackathon website.

Free Minting During the Connected 2023 Hackathon (for handles with 12 or more characters)

• During the Connected 2023 Hackathon from Feb 7th to March 13th, ccProfile will be invite-free. So everyone can mint a profile on https://cyberconnect.me/mint.

• CyberConnect will cover all minting fees and gas for ccProfile with a handle of 12 characters or more during the Connected 2023 Hackathon. This means that it costs nothing now to claim your profile and get into decentralized social! To prevent bots, we require users to authorize & connect their Twitter accounts to be eligible.
