THE ROADMAP

The plan, as it stands today.

Six steps, from concept to the most advanced features. Some are locked in, others are still open work — each one is clearly labeled.

On dates: no precise date is invented here for mint or reveal — they'll be announced on Discord and X once locked in. This page shows the order of steps, not a fictional calendar.

STEP 1

DONE

Foundation

The concept is born: the cycle, transformation, the virtuous circle. Logo design — the RGB spiral, strict pixel art, never recolored. Art pipeline set up: Aseprite 32×32, 37 frames per sphere, no smoothing at any stage.

STEP 2

IN PROGRESS

Community & Discord

Discord server and X account @VirtuousC_NFT live. "Virtuous Member" role via Linked Roles (verified X), captcha, MEE6. Progress through 7 XP levels: Circle Seed → Circle Spark → Circle Flux → Circle Shift → Circle Vessel → Circle Sage → Eternal Circle.

STEP 3

NEXT UP

Mint

Supply fixed at 777: 740 mintable + 37 treasury (Manifold Gift function). Three phases — GTD 411 · FCFS 279 · Public 50 (collab allocations deducted from phases 1 and 2). Price per phase: GTD $4 · FCFS $6 · Public $8, capped at 1 per wallet. Contract VirtuousCircle_NFT, symbol VIRTC, ERC-721, Ethereum mainnet, deployed via Manifold Studio — royalties enforced, full ownership by the creator.

STEP 4

UPCOMING

Reveal

The 777 spheres are unveiled all at once. Each animation loops through 37 frames and returns exactly to its starting sphere. Until then, the art stays locked on this site to preserve the surprise.

STEP 5

ACTIVATES AT MINT

Virtuous Vault (Treasury)

50% of mint revenue feeds a liquid community treasury. Its mission: buy back NFTs below launch price to support the secondary market — the virtuous circle, literally, not just a name.

STEP 6

IN DEVELOPMENT

Holder Profile — "My NFT"

A page to view your sphere straight from the site by connecting your wallet. The interface is ready; on-chain reading activates as soon as minting opens. See the profile page →
