Limited Supply & Whitelist Details
Our whitelist helps us understand demand for the upcoming SolarNFT sale, but it is not necessary to join in order to purchase an NFT. With only 200 SolarNFTs available, demand is already high, and the sale will be on a first-come, first-served basis. Joining the whitelist simply gives us insights into potential buyers, but it does not guarantee access or early purchasing. Be sure to act quickly when the sale opens to secure your SolarNFT!
Step-by-Step Guide: How to Participate in the SolarWise SolarNFT Sale
Step 1: Sign Up for the SolarNFT Whitelist
If you haven’t already, visit www.solarwise.vet and sign up for the whitelist. While it doesn’t provide exclusive access, joining the whitelist ensures you’ll receive all important updates and relevant information about the sale directly to your inbox. Stay in the loop so you never miss any key announcements or opportunities!
Step 2: Create or Connect Your Wallet
You’ll need a VeChain-compatible wallet to participate. If you don’t have one yet, follow these steps:
Go to the VeWorld Wallet website.
Create a new wallet and securely store your seed phrase.
Due to some issues from the marketplace side, FIAT purchasing is not available at this time. Please proceed using VeChain (VET) for your SolarNFT purchase. We appreciate your understanding and are excited to have you as part of the SolarWise community!
Step 3: Add $VET Tokens to Your Wallet
You’ll need $VET tokens to purchase a SolarNFT. The price of each SolarNFT is the VET equivalent of 387.2 USD, fixed to its USD value. Since cryptocurrency prices can fluctuate, it’s important to keep in mind that the value of your $VET might change before the sale. To help you track the current conversion rate, you can use the USD to VET conversion calculator from Coinbase.
Here’s how to get your $VET:
Buy $VET on major exchanges like Binance. You can purchase $VET directly with FIAT (like USD, EUR, etc.) using various payment methods, including credit/debit cards, bank transfers, or other options available on the exchange.
Keep in mind that most trading platforms, such as Binance, require you to complete an identity verification process for security reasons. This might involve submitting documents such as your ID or passport, so make sure to complete this step ahead of time.
Once you’ve purchased your $VET, transfer the tokens from the exchange to your VeWorld wallet by copying your wallet address and pasting it into the withdrawal section on Binance.
Double-check your wallet address before confirming the transfer to ensure everything goes smoothly!
Step 4: Visit the Marketplace on Sale Day
On October 23rd at 13:00 CEST/ 07:00 EST, go to the SolarWise Marketplace powered by VeChain. The link to the marketplace will be shared on our website with easy-to-access buttons directing you to the "Marketplace". Here’s what to do:
Visit the SolarWise website at the start of the sale and click the "Marketplace" button to go directly to the sale.
Browse the available SolarNFTs, each representing ownership of a real solar panel.
Connect Wallet.
Step 5: Select Your SolarNFT & Confirm the Transaction
Once your wallet is connected, you can:
Choose the SolarNFT you want to purchase.
Sign the transaction in your VeWorld/ Sync2 wallet to confirm your purchase.
Your SolarNFT will then be bought and stored in your VeWorld wallet!
Step 6: Connect to the SolarWise dApp
To start tracking your solar panel's performance and energy output, connect your wallet to the SolarWise dApp:
Visit the dApp after the sale.
Connect your VeWorld wallet to monitor energy production. (coming soon)
Stake $VET for discounts on future energy sales and access your $B3TR rewards. (coming soon)
Step 7: Track Your $VET Energy Rewards and $B3TR Payouts
Electricity rewards: These will start accumulating once we begin selling electricity. To receive your rewards, complete the KYC process on the SolarWise platform.
$B3TR payouts: These will begin immediately after the sale and will be distributed weekly, based on your staking tier and the weekly allocation made on the VeBetterDAO. Each week, the VeBetterDAO allocates $B3TR to projects listed on the platform, including SolarWise. You can track the weekly allocation of $B3TR for projects on VeBetterDAO by checking the allocation rounds here.
For the first two weeks, 25% of the weekly allocation will be split evenly among the 200 NFTs while we prepare the staking contracts. After that, the 25% allocation will be split based on the staking tier of each NFT.
SolarWise stands out in that when you purchase a SolarNFT, you’re acquiring a real-world asset—a solar panel—that not only generates $VET rewards from electricity sales but also provides $B3TR benefits. This bonus comes on top of your electricity rewards due to the sustainability factor of owning a solar panel, not from daily user actions like with other dApps.
Our $B3TR model is different: while other projects on the VeBetterDAO often focus on $B3TR as a primary objective, at SolarWise, your main focus is $VET rewards from your ownership of a tangible, real-world asset. The $B3TR bonuses you receive are an additional benefit that comes with supporting a sustainable project. This makes SolarWise a more passive way to earn in the VeBetterDAO ecosystem, offering a unique balance of real-world asset ownership and sustainable rewards.
Why 25% per week? Unlike other projects that give away 70% or more of their $B3TR allocation, SolarWise operates with significant real-world costs. As a registered company in Switzerland, with all the regulatory processes and operational overhead that entails, we balance these costs through our VeBetterDAO payouts rather than marking up our SolarNFTs heavily. In comparison, other projects may distribute more $B3TR because they don’t require a regulatory framework or the prefinancing of large-scale projects like solar farms. The platform we’re providing is far more complex, safe and expensive, so a 10% markup on SolarNFTs cannot cover the costs, which is why we manage this through sustainable rewards distribution.
Disclaimer: Please ensure that you review our Solar Farm webpage, the asset information sheet, and our Terms & Conditions carefully. These documents provide all the necessary details about the solar panel and related assets, ensuring that you are fully informed before making a purchase.
