Pandora’s Experimental ERC-404 Standard Grabs Attention


The Pandora project went live on February 2. It launched a new, experimental token standard named ERC-404.

The new standard combines the popular ERC-20 (token standard) and ERC-720 (NFT standard). It is open-sourced for creators and developers.

Per GitHub, ERC-404 is an experimental, mixed ERC20 / ERC721 implementation with native liquidity and fractionalization. “While these two standards are not designed to be mixed, this implementation strives to do so in as robust a manner as possible while minimizing tradeoffs,” the team said.

As a collection, Pandora comprises 10,000 so-called Replicants enabled by ERC-404. Replicants are generative avatars. Each is attached to a PANDORA token.

There are 5,318 Replicants on the OpenSea marketplace. The lowest price is currently 11 ETH, and the highest is 100 ETH.

As for the token, the team said that PANDORA is the first token built on the ERC-404 standard. The price of PANDORA is currently $24,626, up 135.% over the past 24 hours.

Pandora stresses that the standard is “entirely experimental and unaudited,” though they completed some testing. It later stated that an independent audit is underway.

All that said, many people still have questions about the project’s specifics, while some question the very existence of ERC-404.

Meanwhile, other collections have also started experimenting with the new standard.

The team also announced a partnership with Vector Reserve.

Quantum Cats Sell Out, Some Available for Adoption

The team distributed Quantum Cats collection pieces to wallets, it said on February 6. It added that some cats may be available for “adoption” on the Magic Eden marketplace.

Furthermore, they refunded 19.3 BTC that were overpaid during the mint. These are the funds that were sent beyond users’ whitelist allocations or beyond 3,000 cats in the public phase.

Quantum Cats whitelist mint went live on February 5. At that point, 2,687 cats were minted.

On February 6, the team announced that the Quantum Cats had sold out, stating that the remaining 313 cats sold out within just 2 seconds of the public mint.
