NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) are digital items that exist on things called "Blockchains". Non Fungible means that they are unique and cannot be traded for something "equal" as there is nothing equal. Something fungible is for example regular money: a 10 note can be changed with two notes of 5. NFTs have the unique property that they can be owned by anyone's wallet and anyone in the world is able to verify that they are the owner of that NFT. Modern Pirates Club is a collection of 8888 NFTs on the Solana Blockchain. Each NFT acting as a membership card to the Modern Pirates Club. Owning a Modern Pirates Club NFT allows you to participate in our private group, vote in our DAO and receive benefits from our community wallet (that receives income from the Hostels and the Surf T-shirt brand).

NFT Minting is the process by which the digital art or becomes a part of the Solana blockchain. Minting is the act of initially assigning an NFT to an owner. Until an NFT is minted, it is not tradable on secondary marketplaces like OpenSea. When you "mint" a Modern Pirates Club NFT you are making the NFT yours and getting access to the MPC club. However, most of out NFTs won't be going out on public sale. To be able to qualify to mint you must get whitelisted in our discord group. For more information join our discord.

Modern Pirates Club is much more than a collection of rare and epic NFT art. We want to create a world wide known brand amongst the 3.0 web community and travellers by combining the power of NFTs with an exciting real life project. Nothing seems as exciting and cool as starting a surf brand and a chain of traveler hostels, all lead by an NFT community. By owning a Modern Pirates Club NFT you will be part of this club. Some of the benefits include: The growing and recurring profits from the surf t-shirt brand and hostels. Discounts and special treatment in our hostels. Taking part in the decision making process of what we do with club funds (invest, distribute, donate or throw parties) Access to our private group. The opportunity to live an epic life with many other like minded people and world wide adventures / challenges.

Some time in summer 2022. We aren't releasing this info quite yet. However as we want this to be a private club, it is important to note that most of the collection will be sold only to whitelisted members. Join our discord to get whitelisted, keep updated and be the first to find out when the collection goes on sale.

I am afraid we cannot tell you yet. Join our discord to keep updated.

That's right. This is NOT a merch store. It is a proper Eco t-shirt brand making awesome designs for surfers and skaters and generating profits for our mothership. Club members will have access to unique designs and special discounts. Eco t-shirts? Yes thats right. We will use only t-shirts with sustainable cotton or recycled materials. MPC cares for this beautiful world we live in. Even though the focus isn't around the NFTs, there will still be some t-shirt designs available for you to show off your NFTs. Personalised with whichever pirate you want. Read more about the Surf T-shirt Brand in our white-paper.

Yes thats right! The culmination of our project is to start not just one hostel, but a whole Modern Pirates Club hostel chain with hostels all around the world. We plan to have 1 hostel within 1 year and a half of selling out this collection, 3 hostels in 5 years and 10 hostels in 10 years. We are a club with long term plans. For the moment we have scouts looking for the perfect location to start the first hostel. Once the collection sells out we will start working on creating it. Profits from the Hostel will be added to the club's community wallet. But the hostel will be done from our side (without using any club funds). Read more in our white-paper.

The community wallet for the club is called The Mothership. Here is where all the funds of the club will be stored. The Mothership will have several income streams to keep funding it. As the club grows so will the income streams that go towards it. This will result in a snowball effect that will make it possible to invest in more projects that will result in even more profits. The mothership will be funded with 5% of the minting value + 1% of the resale value (royalties) + Hostel profits + Surf T-shirt Brand profits + more funds from our second collection coming in Q4 of 2022. Read more about the income streams in our whitepaper. Through the DAO we can all propose and then vote what to do with the funds that are gathered in The Mothership. Either re-invest them, donate them to a good cause, throw pirate parties around the world, or simply give them out as dividends. Important: We won't use the mothership's funds to start the hostel nor the surf brand. Those are made by us and will only provide benefits for club members. Find out more in our whitepaper.

The Modern Pirate Gals is our second NFT collection that will complement our pirate party and expand our club. The roadmap for the Modern Pirate Gals is still being developed. We will launch this collection sometime in Q4 of 2022 or Q1 of 2023. The gals collection will go on sale with many rewards and benefits independent to the original MPC collection. They will bring many more funds to the mothership and benefits for all. The main ones being a club house in the metaverse (probably sandbox) and a second hostel! Strength comes in numbers, the more pirates the merrier! Read more about the Modern Pirate Gals collection in our white-paper.
