Dear readers,

As most of you may have been informed, there has been a bug in the generating of the CashCats NFTs series. So what happened?

In the code that generated the cats we have identified a small bug that caused generation of duplicate cats. In hindsight, the error was just one line of code (which should have ensured the uniqueness).

However, the set has now been generated, we have to look at the solution. We want to make sure the cat you bought still has the same look. So we propose the following solution to make all the cats unique again.

The impact:

446 cats that exist 2x = (892 affected cats)

84 cats that exist 3x = (252 affected cats)

16 cats that exist 4x = (64 affected cats)

3 cats that exist 5x = (15 affected cats)

The Solution:

We will make all cats unique again by:

- Burn all affected cats that are undistributed as of 11-11-2021 (undistributed: 3741 cats). A total of 358 cats will be burned.

- All burned cats will be sent to cat heaven address: 0x000000000000000000000000000000000000dEaD

- After burning, all remaining duplicates (except for the one with the lowest ID) will receive a new unique background (random out of 5 available). A total of 375 cats will get the new backgrounds.

- All cats that exist in a duplicate set where some cats get new backgrounds, but themselves are unchanged - will get a bonus trait 'OG' The visuals will not be changed. Cats that do get new backgrounds will not get this bonus trait.

- The generation script has been appended with this fix. It is still verifiable using the original seed.

- All cats are now unique!

Offer Buy Back service for those affected:

If you have bought a CashCats NFT that has been affected by this bug, we will offer you a limited time buy back service. Those who have bought a cat and who now are not satisfied because of the changed background, or for any other reason, will be refunded in full. Affected cats include: Cats which now have a new special background, Cats that gained the additional attribute "OG".

- If you got your cat from the Cats4Cats tool, we will offer you a refund of 10,000 $CATS

- If you bought your cat from the running auctions, we will refund you the price you paid for it from the auctions.

If you are eligible for refund and would like to use this service, you can do so by joining our Telegram group and DM one of the admins there: https://t.me/OasisCash

This service will last till November 21st, after November 21st we will check which cats have been refunded and complete the transactions to those owners addresses.

That is an admirable handling of this situation. The announcement means a lot for OASIS and we can move on from this point. I read the changes made and feel this decision will satisfy all affected NFT holders.
