If Web3 functionality of the official website is unreachable or disabled, a Citizen can be created interacting with the Citizen contract and all the component contracts on Etherscan.
Using Etherscan and contracts to upload
This process requires the user to write information to several contracts with ethereum transactions using the wallet containing the correct Neo Tokyo component NFTs.
Requirements
Creating a Citizen requires:
- Enough ETH for multiple transaction fees (0.02+ to ensure that you can complete the process)
- These component NFTs must be in the ethereum wallet you are connecting to Etherscan:
- An Identity or a Bought Identity
- Item Cache
- Land Deed NFT
- (Optional) a Vault can be used to increase the $BYTE yield of the resulting Citizen.
- The token ID for each component
Note: You can reduce costs by uploading a Citizen when gas fees are low.
