How a small web3 project disrupted the $70 million trading card industry?
Cardano Web 3 project competing with a 70 year old centralized concept established by Panini Group in the 60s
A bold project is coming to Cardano to disrupt the traditional trading card industry.
Sounds too clickbaity? Yes it does, but this or similar would be the big vision of TheMandrillz web3 project. (see chart below why it is possible!)
Instead of licensed player cards, The Mandrillz World Cup will use their monkey jpgs aka Drillz NFTs to bring a fun concept to the Cardano blockchain.

What's better than collecting football cards and trading with friends? Collecting football cards made of monkeys stored on the blockchain forever and trading with friends & other Degen online. 🙌
UPDATE: The community seems to agree as we have managed something historic on the Cardano Blockchain. After only 7 days we minted unbelievable 75k World Cup NFTs
The Mandrillz World Cup might not have those expensive licences of real superstar football players but the Drillz wearing jerseys of the teams which qualified for the World Cup 2022 in Qatar have its very own charm + you actually own a unique card stored on the Cardano blockchain forever.
The World Cup Drillz project is about fun for those who love football, collecting and trading and the community agrees. Read a few of our Collectors reviews about the Drillz Wold Cup Portal/Album

This year and for the 1st time ever the World Cup takes place just before Christmas when it is cold and uncomfy outside so what's better than hanging out on twitter & Discord, collecting & trading some monkey NFTs?
The Drillz World Cup is all about fun & hanging out with friends from the NFT community. If fun isn't enough incentive for you to own the very 1st ever collectors album there might even be more value for some of those Degens out there. Check Ebay for those old school completed collectors World Cup albums. Decide for yourself if you want to be one of these few to actually complete the full world cup album or not! It will be stored now and it will be perpetuated on the Cardano blockchain forever!
Soooo…

Where are all my trading cards stored?
Your cards will be forever stored on the Cardano blockchain.
To view your personal cards The Mandrillz team has created a slick World Cup portal. Here you can see all teams, how many you have collected already and how many are still missing for each team. There will also be Duplicates you can easily share with other Drillz in our Discord, Jpg.store and other marketplaces as well as Trading Tent, our exclusive partner for this World Cup event.
What is a Trading Tent?
Trading Tent is an established escrow service that offers to easily & affordable trade one or more NFTs with another person.
The Mandrillz are the 1st project to get their own landing page to be able to communicate Mandrillz branding and vibes. Pricing will be as low as 1 ada per trade.
What is the dream team?
Besides being able to collect trading cards with our Mandrillz artwork we partnered up with some of the best NFT projects on Cardano. Collect all 11 of our partner players to earn a special role in our Discord.
What will the cards look like?
For every position in football we created one player to collect. From Goalie to Striker - Try to get them all for some nice rewards & perks.
What are Legends/Superstars?
To make it even more fun to collect and complete full teams for each of the 32 countries we offer a very special NFT. Completing a team of 11 players will unlock the legend/superstar of that team for you to claim. Hit the claim button and transfer the minimum amount of ada to mint it.
What is Panini Group?
Panini is a very old company specialised in trading cards. They even have their own blockchain now called Sawtooth and have a decent volume of around $60k+ ! Can a small web 3 project on Cardano beat their 24 hour volume? It isn't impossible with such a huge community Cardano has. There have been plenty of projects in the past which easily surpassed the daily volume of $100k. If this happens at the World Cup Mandrillz be sure that we will let all big tech media outlets such as Techcrunch, Mashable, TheVerge etc. know about it.

Yes you can - this system is built for anyone to use. Any NFL Chilled Kongs or maybe NBA goats, how about a Yummiverse collectible? Just hit us up and we make it happen for you!
