TL;DR:

• Move BGAN V2 metadata from Berk's private server to IPFS (decentralized storage)

• Eliminate single point of failure and improve long-term reliability

• I will handle migration + ongoing maintenance

• Cost: 1 ETH upfront + 0.05 ETH/month

---

Problem:

• Currently, BGAN V2 metadata is hosted on a private server managed by Berk

• Example:
  https://api.bastardganpunks.club/1234

• This introduces a single point of failure:

  • If the server goes down, metadata becomes inaccessible

  • If maintenance stops, the collection’s integrity is at risk

---

Proposed Solution:

• Migrate all metadata and assets to IPFS

• Use redundant pinning:

  • Pinata (paid)

  • My IPFS node

• Benefits:

  • Redundancy (no single failure point)

  • Decentralization (no reliance on one server)

  • Persistence (data remains accessible as long as pinned)

  • Flexibility (metadata still updatable via baseURI)

• Trust minimization:

  • Data is publicly accessible and independently pinnable

  • System can be taken over by any contributor if needed

---

Implementation Plan:

• Download + verify all metadata and assets

• Pin all data on Pinata + my IPFS node

• Update contract baseURI:
  https://snapshot.4everland.link/ipfs//

• TokenURI format:
  https://snapshot.4everland.link/ipfs//

• Refresh metadata on OpenSea (Blur auto-updates)

• Validate full collection

• Publish GitHub documentation

---

Ongoing Responsibilities:

• Manage metadata updates:

  • Update files → re-pin → new CID → update baseURI → refresh marketplaces

• Maintain infrastructure:

  • Keep IPFS node online and serving data

  • Maintain Pinata redundancy

• Ensure reliability:

  • Validate metadata integrity

  • Fix issues across IPFS / OpenSea / Blur

• Maintain documentation + handoff readiness

---

Cost:

• Initial migration, infrastructure setup, and verification: 1 ETH

• Ongoing maintenance and support: 0.05 ETH / month

---

Payment Structure:

• 50% upfront, 50% upon completion

• Completion defined as:

  • Metadata migrated to IPFS

  • baseURI updated

  • All tokens verified

  • Marketplaces refreshed

• Monthly maintenance begins after completion

---

Summary:

• Removes centralized dependency

• Improves resilience and longevity of the collection

• Establishes a maintainable, DAO-controlled metadata system
