Timeline today:

1. The earliest collectible auctions will start settling around noon ET (an hour and a half from now) unless they are extended. New bids in the final 15 minutes extend another 15 minutes. Reload your wallets and prepare your thumbs.

2. No need to claim, we'll settle completed auctions. On settlement, the cast is minted to your Farcaster wallet as an ERC721. It's fully transferrable. 

3. Working on rendering the same nice image artifact we have in the app across wallets and secondary marketplaces. For today you'll see a placeholder image and cast metadata like the text, author, and timestamp. We'll "reveal" soon.

4. We've set an optional 0.5% creator fee on OpenSea that goes to the same wallet as protocol fees from the auction. Auction and secondary fees will both go to creator and developer rewards.

For those interested, here's the NFT contract on BaseScan and source on Github:
