#### Holo everyone! #### We're happy to announce that we have released the [Alpha Vials' sale](https://holozing.com/shop) today!
![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/holozing/23uFKdbPZox7jaNih5HnHvxXFmkHvjopaZXSUCCDTiCWUH9XqLYLG6VQTnGn2ufakBNca.png)
Here's what you need to know about them!
#### Scarcity The Alpha Edition Vials will be time-limited but not amount-limited. This is done to prevent a few large buyers from cornering the market and adding a premium price for re-sale value. Everyone has enough time to purchase a Alpha Edition Vial for the Alpha duration of our game. The scarcity of Vials will thus be in the hands of the community!
#### Alpha Design Starter items in the Alpha Vial will have a limited design that will only exist in these vials. While there will be similar items in the game for players to craft or purchase from Beta Vials, the looks won't be the same.
#### Better odds While the 4 starter creatures won't be fully limited to our Alpha Vials, you are guaranteed to get one when opening them. Their stat rarity odds will be slightly higher in the Alpha Vials compared to Beta vials where they will also have much smaller odds of being pulled from as we'll introduce Beta Starter Creatures by then. The same thing applies to item rarity found in Alpha Vials. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/holozing/23tvXvD6SG2hv4JzHMASKvTwR4T34KBgUec4gzu3CAh9a6At3E2wKAVV8AUGo6jT2vDXc.png)
#### Open or Hodlo As a collector of the Alpha Vials, you can choose if you want to open the vial up in a future release or _hold_ to trade later. As they will be time-limited some of you may value to open them up at a later date or save some for friends and family for special occasions! Zing Collection rewards will vary over time for unopened Vials.
#### Provably Fair When opening up the Vial, you can rest assured that the odds are in your hands. Provably fair technology makes it possible for you to verify that no one messed with your odds while ensuring no insiders were able to cherry-pick when to open Vials up for increased rarity results.
#### Achievement Discount Those of you who have collected the Holozing Advent Calendar achievement in 2023 will enjoy a discounted first Alpha Vial based on the amount of days you claimed zing rewards. If you claimed on only 1 day you'll receive a 1% discount up to a 31% discount for those who claimed daily! This discount will only apply to one pack and will also be valid for a healer mint!
#### Price The Holozing Alpha packs will be priced at $20. We have spent a lot of time ensuring the contents of the vials and the access it will give healers will be worth the price point while at the same time making it costly for potential abusers to risk being bad healers!
#### Contents ##### Starter Creatures The Alpha Vial will guarantee one of the 4 Holozing starter creatures, these will not be capturable in-game but may drop at significant lower odds in Beta Vials to prevent a very limited future supply. [They can evolve as showcased in this blogpost.](https://peakd.com/hive-131131/@holozing/alpha-starter-creature-evolutions) The starter creatures have increased rarity odds when being pulled from the Alpha Vial compared to future Vials as well as increased odds of Radiant variations as [explained in this blogpost.](https://peakd.com/hive-131131/@holozing/radiant-and-holomax) They will also come inside an Alpha designed Capture Card of different rarities. https://images.hive.blog/0x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/holozing/23tvAVXvyPbvpmi9YCFxj8n3YuYwjnf8ozra7QGe81y8Ad9YcVQAMtu9uhMoLxSr6Vidx.png

Since we have previews to past blog posts in all the items above except for Alpha Designed Capture Cards, we wanted to give you a sneak peek of how they will look while keeping the rest a secret until the opening of Vials is released. This is our Water Type Alpha Designed Capture Card with no creature captured yet:
https://youtube.com/shorts/flzIfg1bbDg?si=gtizElMcFKiKpSCj
The buttons on the cards will represent the 4 main stats for each creature, HP, ATTACK, DEFENSE and AGILITY. They will showcase the exact value of the creature upon capture while also determining the rarity in its respective color. The level button will highlight the average rarity of all 4 stats combined as well as show the current level of the creature.
#### Zing Collection Rewards For Alpha Vial and achievement holders, they will be able to earn our in-game token Zing based on collection rewards. While the soulbound achievement holders have already been claiming 1k staked zing per day, we will be assigning a weight to Alpha Vials and increasing the zing distribution to 100k zing per day with majority going to Alpha Vial holders. This feature isn't live yet to give collectors a fair chance of reading the announcement and getting their Alpha Vials, we expect this to go live in a few days and will announce it by then. Over time we will adjust the Zing distribution based on Alpha Vial purchases and Hive Power delegations, we will be holding a zing-staked poll to get feedback from the community on these adjustments. While it may sound like a lot of Zing going towards Vial holders, with the upcoming opening we will further adjust the weight of collection rewards to favor those opening their Vials and it being based on amount and rarity of creatures and items they hold. This will then be further diluted when the game enters Beta as collectors will be able to craft items and capture creatures all with their own weight on the Zing distributed to Collection rewards while having rewarded early supporters of Vials and achievements along the way.
#### Referral rewards With the removal of "setting a referrer" option the only way to get more referrers now is by inviting new players over using your referral link. Players purchasing Vials will give referrers a lifetime 5% in the token they've been purchased in (Hive/HBD). Future methods of acquiring Vials through other crypto and fiat will give referrers the option to pick if they want the 5% in Hive/HBD or Zing.
#### Things to know The official symbol for our Alpha Vials on hive-engine is ZINGALPHA. Be aware that we haven't enabled a market for them yet but players can trade them peer2peer. We'll enable the market along with Zing collection reward adjustment in a few days. Referral rewards should be granted to referrers instantly. #### Shop page: https://holozing.com/shop ##### Inventory page: https://holozing.com/inventory Upon purchase of Vials, they should show up in the inventory page after a few seconds.

After a year and two days since [our announcement](https://peakd.com/hive-131131/@holozing/announcing-holozing-a-roleplaying-adventure-game) of @holozing this is officially the second method to help crowdfund development and the team behind the project. While Hive Power delegations have been great for a bootstrap, we're hoping this will enable us to up the pace of development, hire more devs and users to assist us in different ways and to bring a polished beta game to you as soon as possible. Thank you all for your support throughout this volatile year and your continued activity and amazing contributions to our community. We look forward to the future of the Zing ecosystem in excitement and are grateful to have you along for the ride!
