The Hive World

A honeycomb that wraps the planet.

Drag to pan. Scroll to zoom. Each hexagon sits on a real continent. Zoom in tight and one click buys a single hive at $80. Zoom out and one click sweeps in a hundred neighbors, with the bulk discount baked into the price. Queens live in iconic cities (Miami, New York, London, Tokyo, Dubai, Sydney and 94 more), glowing white-gold.

If every hive sells out at tier price, the cap is $10M (Queens) + $9.9M (Legendaries) + $79.2M (Workers) = $99.1M. Queen prizes are paid in-kind from the Worker pool, so the prize is self-funding.

How a hive is born and where it goes

Minted once. Yours forever. Tradable anywhere.

Every Plutobee Hive is a one-of-a-kind compressed NFT on Solana. We mint it the moment you claim a hex, register it to your email-wallet, and you can hold it, gift it or sell it — the chain remembers, the registry shows provenance, and we never re-mint the same hex twice.

01

Click a hex

Pan the world. Pick a single hex at street level or sweep in a region zoomed out. Pay with card, Apple Pay, bank or crypto.

Phase: claim
02

Mint once on Solana

We mint a compressed NFT (cNFT) at fractions of a cent. The hex's registry entry now points to your wallet. No double-mints, no fakes. You can verify on-chain or via our registry.

Phase: mint · on-chain · irrevocable
03

Own and customize

Engrave a quote (180 chars), pin it to your profile, embed it on your site, view it in any wallet that supports Solana cNFTs. Your name appears on the public registry.

Phase: ownership
04

Gift to someone

Send a hive as a gift with a positive sting — a thank-you, a congrats, a buzz-buzz. Recipient claims with their email; we route the cNFT into their wallet. Perfect for teammates, customers, friends, or just because.

Phase: gift · recipient claims by email
05

Sell on the marketplace

List at any price, accept offers, swap hex-for-hex, or transfer directly to another wallet. Royalty: 5% of every resale flows back into the Queen treasury that funds future prizes.

Phase: resale · 5% royalty · treasury-funded
06

Forever provenance

Every transfer is recorded. Every previous owner is visible. Every engraved quote is permanent. Burn the wallet, burn the email, the hive's history is intact.

Under the hood

Real ownership. Almost no gas.

Three phases. Each phase only ships when the previous one earns the right.

Phase 01 · Now

Registry + email wallet

Plutobee operates the authoritative registry. Users sign up with email and we issue an embedded wallet (Privy or Magic). Card payments via Stripe, crypto via Coinbase Commerce or Crossmint. Every claim writes to an audited Postgres registry with public verification.

PostgresStripeCoinbasePrivyResend
Phase 02 · When demand justifies

Solana cNFT bridge

Each claimed hive can be exported to a Solana compressed NFT in one click. cNFTs cost about $0.0001 to mint, so the gas budget for 1M hives is roughly $100 total, paid by Plutobee, not the buyer. Custodial wallets transfer to Phantom or Solflare on demand.

SolanaMetaplex BubblegumcNFT$0.0001 mint
Phase 03 · Marketplace

Resale, royalty, repeat

P2P listings, accepted offers, atomic hex-for-hex trades. 5% royalty on every resale funds the Queen treasury. Cross-listed on Tensor and Magic Eden for liquidity.

The frank conversation

What you should ask before buying.

Is this a security?
A Hive is a collectible record. It has no equity, no dividend, no yield. The marketplace royalty pays into the Queen treasury, not pro-rata to holders. We publish a Howey-test memo from counsel before any public sale.
Where do the Queens live on the map?
Queens occupy ids 1 through 100, which sit along the top edge of the world map. Their hexes render white-gold so they are visible on every zoom level. You can buy them directly or get one as a bonus when somebody trades a Worker your way.
Can I sell my hive later?
Yes. Every hive is transferable from day one. List on the marketplace, accept an offer, or send to another wallet directly. Plutobee takes 5% on resales, which funds the Queen prize pool.
What if I do not know anything about crypto?
You do not need to. Default flow: pay with a card or Apple Pay, we issue you an embedded wallet, you see "My Hives" in your account. Power users opt into self-custody. Pick your comfort level.
What if Plutobee disappears?
Phase 1 is custodial, which is a real risk. Mitigation: nightly registry export to IPFS plus to every Queen holder's email. Phase 2 moves ownership on-chain so it survives us.
Will all one million sell?
Probably not in year one. Realistic target: 1K to 10K hives in the first 12 months, weighted toward Queens and Legendaries. The Queen prize is the engine that pulls traffic; one big winner per week tells the story.

Reserve a Queen.

Only 100 ever. White-glove onboarding, custom artwork review, dinner with the founders in Miami when you collect.
