The purpose is to help people tokenize their creativity in a new way, and have a little fun as well. Over the long term, we’re also highly interested in game interopability, and hope to partner with other games to make Souls an avatar standard.
We are big fans of 0x, and also had an interest in experimenting with new token mechanics for ZRX, so we offer a discount for minting souls if the user holds ZRX in their wallet.
The way it works is pretty simple. The user goes to our site, and can browse the various souls we have to offer–they take picture of themselves, and “entomb” this picture into a “soul” as an ERC721 for a small fee (.005 Eth, .0025 if the user holds ZRX in their wallet).
note–our code might not be fully deployed on our website at time of submission, but it *should work if you clone the github and run locally
