A virtual on-chain pet died moments after its birth when speculators on Crypto Twitter spammed it with care, only to discover that its smart contract was riddled with bugs.
The botched launch of the project, WAGMIGOTCHI, shows how its creator, Dom Hofmann, the creator of runaway NFT hits Loot and Blitmap, is so popular that people will ape into his experiments to avoid missing out on the next big thing—even if doesn’t quite work yet.
WAGMIGOTCHI is a single on-chain virtual pet that is kept alive by anyone who sends gas to its smart contract. Call the functions, clean(), feed(), play()or sleep() and you can spend gas to boost the pet’s stats and keep it alive. “If needs are unmet it can die,” wrote Hofmann when he introduced the project on Twitter last night.
