What is Avastars?
Avastars present themselves as avatars for the metaverse. An Avastar is basically a digital character that has certain traits, ranging from eye colors to crazy helmets and haircuts. All data is stored on the blockchain, making them immutable as long as the Ethereum blockchain exists.
Avastars come in different rarities. The most common ones have a low ranking and sell for 0.07 ETH. However, characters with multiple epic and legendary traits get a higher score and sell for 1.4 ETH. The dapp allows users to scroll through the Avastars, and just mint the ones they like.
There will only be five generations, and each of them comes with five series. Avastars just sold out Generation 1 and series 3. All these generation 1 characters are so-called Primes, which will serve as the basis to create Replicants.
