PART 1:  NFT drops can only be minted on either the ETH network or the BSC network.

THEY CANNOT BE MINTED ON BOTH NETWORKS AT THE SAME TIME.

This is a general misunderstanding some beginners have about buying NFTs on the Mogul NFT Marketplace… or any other marketplace for that matter.

ETH Searches will only display NFT collections that are on the ETH (Ethereum) network. 

BSC Searches will only  display NFT collections that are on the BSC (Binance Smart Chain) network.

Guide to Acquiring NFTs on Mogul Marketplace

Each available NFT on the Mogul Marketplace on the Ethererum “ETH” network will appear with the ETH symbol located inside the description.

BSC Searches will only  display NFT collections that are on the BSC (Binance Smart Chain) network.

Mogul Marketplace - BSC

Each available NFT on the Mogul Marketplace on Binance Smart Chain “BSC” network will appear with the BSC symbol located inside the  description.

Mogul Marketplace - BSC 1
Mogul Marketplace - Featured NFTs

Mogul’s newest universal NFT collection display will show both ETH and BSC together.   However all the NFTs will still either be part of one network or the other.

PART 2:  Mogul NFT Marketplace only displays the STARS on the network you are currently attached to.

‍IF YOU ONLY BOUGHT STARS ON ONE NETWORK THEY CAN’T AUTOMATICALLY  BE ON BOTH NETWORKS AT THE SAME TIME.

So if you own your STARS on the ETH network….

Mogul NFT Marketplace

 … it doesn’t automatically mean you own STARS on the BSC network and vice versa

Mogul NFT Marketplace - STARS on the BSC network

So even though there are 3,408.4 STARS on the ETH network, they can’t be used to  buy the NFT below for 450 STARS because it is on the BSC network.

buy the NFT below for 450 STARS

Solution: You can buy more STARS on the BSC network, send STARS from another crypto wallet,  or you can do this.

Swap the STARS from ETH network to BSC.  Here’s how to do it.

For this process we are going to use a Metamask wallet to go through the entire process of purchasing a NFT.

PART 3:  How to swap STARS tokens between the ETH and BSC networks.

Step A

Select the Network on the Mogul NFT Marketplace that you wish to transfer STARS from.  

(This is the network that has the STARS you are transferring)

Guide to Acquiring NFTs on Mogul Marketplace

If you switch over from one network to another, your crypto wallet, such as MetaMask in this example,  will prompt you to confirm switching over to another network.

Step B

In this example we are using the AnySwap to make the swap.

Click on the link to open AnySwap

AnySwap Bridge: https://anyswap.exchange/#/bridge

Connect your wallet to AnySwap

Make sure you are on the “Bridge” tab.

Change the From to ETH (or whatever the default cryptocurrency is) to STARS.

After you connect your wallet to AnySwap will be able to see the amount of STARS you have..

Once the swap is complete.  Go back to Mogul Marketplace and select the other network that you were swapping STARS to. This will prompt Metamask or whichever wallet you are using to switch to the same network

You should see the STARS you swapped on your other network now.

Select the NFT you wish to buy with STARS. Click on Purchase NFT

The NFT purchase is now completed.  As long as your wallet is linked to the Mogul NFT Marketplace, you can now Transfer or Sell your NFT.

Mogul Productions - Reveal Content

Also the unlockable content within this particular NFT is now unlocked.

Mogul Productions - Signature Content

Every NFT purchase is unique. In this particular case regarding Unlockable Content, the Metamask wallet is asking to “Sign” that the wallet’s account is the rightful owner. .

The Mogul NFT Marketplace should update the amount of NFTs owned on the connected wallet. 

Mogul NFT Marketplace

TROUBLE SHOOTING

The NFT purchase transaction should go through.  Unless you get this message.

Mogul NFT Marketplace Transaction

Every transaction swap on blockchain requires gas. Depending on the Network you are transacting in you will need either  ETH or BNB.  On the Ethereum gas is paid with ETH and on the Binance chain it’s paid with BNB. 

If you don’t have ETH or BNB depending on the Network, you will have to…

Buy it by selecting and clicking on “Buy”.  Then continue to either Transak to pay by credit card or Apple Pay.  (Both options will automatically copy your wallet address over) ….

 …Or pay by direct deposit.

From there it will take you to the Transak website to select the amount f

Use Transak with a credit card or Apply Pay will require going through a KYC (Know Your Client) Process. Once completed and the transaction is approved, your ETH or BSC tokens will appear in your wallet.

or receive it from another wallet into your wallet.  Click on the copy button where your address is and give it to the sender wallet to receive the proper cryptocurrency into your MetaMask wallet, in this example.

Mogul NFT Marketplace - Account

Is there only one MetaMask address?

Yes, you use the same address for different ERC20 tokens on the Ethereum network, as long as your wallet is compatible with the ERC20 token you can use it with that wallet on the same address.

How Supernovas preserve the value of STARS token holders

Mogul is always thinking of new ways to reward STARS token holders and preserve its purchasing power. 

STARS tokens are used to buy NFTs on the Mogul Marketplace, redeem exclusive rewards, gain early access to new NFTs, and shape the Mogul community and metaverse.

Buying Mogul NFTs with STARS also rewards buyers with discounts and lower gas rates. 

Every time STARS are used for in-app activities, Mogul destroys a portion of the STARS used to complete the action.  

That includes:

Purchasing limited-edition NFTs that are only made available to STARS holders

Purchasing rewards with STARS

Submitting scripts for Mogul’s review

Here at Mogul, we call it a Supernova when a portion of STARS are permanently taken out of circulation, or burned.  

Supernovas help maintain the value and quantity of the STARS currency in circulation, as well as protect and reward our community of token holders.  It’s a credit cancellation process. Supernovas are scheduled to occur on the third Friday of every month and more may be added as circumstances allow.

Fun fact:  A supernova is a powerful and luminous explosion of a star. It’s a transition stage of a star’s life cycle where the astronomical event occurs at the last stage of the star’s life. At Mogul, a supernova means we’re removing STARS tokens from circulation permanently 🔥

For more information on Supernovas…

Using Dutch Auctions to Sell Your NFTs

Auctions are a popular and proven method for film, music and entertainment artists to successfully sell out their NFT collection drops at the best price possible.  

The trend is changing on how exactly to do this. NFT marketplaces are using the Dutch auction technique more often.  This technique is different from the traditional selling method used by auction houses.

With a regular auction, the opening price bids start low and progress higher when buyers willing to pay a higher price for the same item make the bids.  The final price is determined when the highest bid is made. At which point, the item is sold to the highest bidder.

With Dutch auctions, everything is reversed. 

Distribution of a NFT collection needs to be fair and random. Prices start very high and then slowly drop at predetermined time intervals, such as 10 or 20 minutes.  

As the tap on price tag starts dripping, collectors snatch up NFTs.   There is usually a predetermined floor price.  Rarity is based on provided price levels and mints in the collection. The lower the price, the higher the risk is of missing out. 

Artists want to sell out at the end of a Dutch auction.

Dutch auctions are available to everyone.

Cereal Club recently sold out its whitelist collection of 10,000 NFTs just 24 hours using the Dutch auction strategy. The success came as the original Dutch auction price of 1 Ethereum was slashed by 50%.

Even with a hefty mint price, the RPG game Pixelmon raised $70 Million in primary sales using a Dutch auction strategy.

Even traditional auction houses have caught up with the NFT fever.  The Christie’s and Sotheby’s houses recorded the top sales so far, including the Beeple’s digital art, which sold for a massive $69 million at Christie’s in March 2021.

What if we could help you build that fanbase?

Fans create buzz. Fans want to be a part of the creative process.

If artists and filmmakers engage their community in inclusive ways, they may have a better road taking their idea from inception, to reality.  

Mogul wants to help artists shine.

How to Bridge Your STARS Tokens to Binance Smart Chain (BSC)

STARS tokens are going to be available on Binance Smart Chain (BSC) as of July 15, 2021. By default, STARS are ERC-20 compliant, meaning they live on the Ethereum blockchain.

That means in order to hold and trade STARS on BSC, you need to trade in your Ether-friendly STARS for ones that are BEP-20 compliant.

Remember, you also need to be able to do the reverse and bridge BEP-20 STARS back over to ERC-20 because using STARS for voting or staking on the Mogul platform can only be done with the ERC-20 version.

Here’s exactly how to bridge your STARS tokens in six easy steps.

Step 1: Go to AnySwap.Exchange

Anyswap.exchange does exactly what the name says. It allows you to swap almost any digital currency for one of a different format. Click here to get to the website and get to the exact page for swapping the STARS currency pairing.

Here’s exactly what the page looks like:

Step 2: Decide Which Way You Want to Complete the Swap

If you have BEP-20 STARS and want to convert them into ERC-20 STARS, you need to choose the option to Redeem your tokens by toggling the menu to the top right of the screen. If you’re trading ERC-20 STARS for BEP-20 STARS, choose the deposit option. See the screenshot below:

Step 3: Choose the Right Blockchain Network within Your MetaMask Wallet

No matter what you’re doing, your MetaMask wallet always has to be set to the right blockchain network. If you select your wallet by clicking the fox icon that represents your MetaMask Google plugin and get a “Wrong Network” message, it means you need to either switch to Binance or Ethereum, depending on whether you are redeeming or depositing tokens in the step above.

If you don’t know how to connect MetaMask to BSC, check out this guide offered by Binance. See the screenshot below for further guidance:

Step 4: Initiate the Bridge Transaction

Enter the number of STARS tokens you want to trade and hit Cross-chain Deposit/Redeem. You need to swap at least 1,260 tokens in order for your transaction to go through.

Step 5: Confirm Your Transaction via MetaMask

AnySwap will accept your transaction, but that doesn’t mean you’re done. Once you initiate the cross-chain exchange, you’ll need to confirm it through MetaMask.

Make sure you have a minimum of 0.02 ETH in order to complete the transaction because you do need to pay a fee to the network.

Step 6: Check to See That Your Bridge Transaction Is Complete

Now that you’ve looked at your MetaMask wallet and confirmed your transaction, you can click on the STARS token to the far right to see when you’ve successfully bridged your tokens. Make sure you check that before you leave the page so that you don’t get caught having to do the transaction again.

You can now be fully confident in bridging your tokens from BSC to Ethereum and vice versa. Join us as we launch on BSC on July 15, 2021 and give you, the STARS token holder with the lower fees and faster speeds that BSC provides and that movie fans like you deserve.

Mogul Partners with ApeSwap

Mogul partners with ApeSwap; giving STARS token holders increased use cases on the  Binance Smart Chain

Mogul Productions, a decentralized film financing and movie-based NFT platform bringing together movie fans, creators, and financiers, is partnering with ApeSwap, the fastest-growing decentralized exchange (DEX) and community within the Binance Smart Chain (BSC) ecosystem.

ApeSwap is a decentralized, community-owned exchange platform that, due to being deployed on the Binance Smart Chain, is more cost-effective than using Uniswap; especially for frequent users. 

ApeSwap gives tokens more utility through participation in their farms, pools, and Initial Ape Offerings (IAOs); all of which center around their BANANA and GNANA tokens. Users can stake their existing tokens to earn BANANA and vice versa. 

The site currently boasts nearly $300 million in total value locked and 155,000+ followers on its social media channels. The BANANA token is a top 350 cryptocurrency by market capitalization and the project’s expanding group of partners currently includes 90+ different strategic alliances.

STARS holders will be able to use ApeSwap as of July 15, 2021; giving Mogul access to ApeSwap’s growing userbase of 400,000 monthly active users

Apart from ApeSwap integrating STARS into their platform, Mogul and ApeSwap are joining forces in a host of marketing efforts centered around introducing STARS to the BSC ecosystem. These co-marketing efforts will give Mogul exposure to ApeSwap’s engaged userbase, including their 30,000 BANANA holders and non-fungible ape holders.

As part of the partnership, ApeSwap is featuring Mogul on ApeTV, a global podcast series reaching listeners from more than 30 countries that is now streaming on Spotify.

The partnership will also include:

  • Multiple Twitter and Telegram giveaways from both projects for users to earn STARS and BANANA
  • An ecosystem development campaign, where Mogul Access Pass holders will be gifted $10,000 worth of free BANANA, and non-fungible ape holders will be gifted STARS BEP20 tokens
  • A GNANA staking pool to earn STARS
  • Official STARS listing on ApeSwap
  • A STARS/BNB LP farm to earn BANANA 

Anonymous ApeSwap founder Obie Dobo  says the amazing growth that Mogul has experienced in such a short time makes the partnership a match made in DeFi heaven:

“We identified Mogul as a top Ethereum project in the NFT space based on the fact that they’ve grown their audience to over 50,000 users and done more than $10 million in NFT sales. We’re incredibly excited to launch STARS products on ApeSwap”.

“Given that both Mogul and ApeSwap are two of the fastest-growing projects in the cryptoverse and more and more users are looking to BSC-friendly platforms to get their hands on crypto, the partnership is a great milestone for us, says Lisa Sun, Founder and President of Mogul Productions. “Community growth is important to us at Mogul, and we’re excited by the engaged ApeSwap community – we’re sure to find some movie fans there!”

About Mogul Productions (Mogul)

Mogul Productions is a decentralized film financing project connecting creators, film financiers, and movie fans together, giving everyone the opportunity to participate in producing and distributing big-budget movies.

Using blockchain technology, NFTs, and tokenomics, Mogul incentivizes participation and engagement. The STARS token allows users to complete in-app payments and vote on key decision-making surrounding green lighting and producing feature films.
