Upload

  1. Please ensure that you have reviewed and abided by our Technical Requirements. If you are assigning rarity to different traits, Art Blocks strongly recommends using an instance of the Random class found here to feed your project's randomness. Before uploading, please verify that your script meets this requirement.

  2. Ensure your wallet is funded with enough Sepolia ETH to pay the gas fees for the upload and unpausing process.
