Incoming_Transmission: Hello Explorers. After a brief hiatus, our newsletter will be returning to offer regular updates on the many branches of the Lvcidia ecosystem. We have continued to build, day in and day out, regardless of the state of the market. And those efforts have reaped tremendous rewards. The team has grown, branches have evolved, and spirits run high.
Our recent efforts can be seen with the release of ERA 2. It began June 1st with the launch of our new website, and will continue on through the rest of the year. Those who have continued to support us can look forward to curated digital art releases (Experiences), new Finery items, an innovative expansion of staking, and more. We’re excited to show you everything we have in store, as Lvcidia advances toward becoming the platform we always dreamed it could be.
THE N2 FINERY COLLECTION
The launch of Finery last year was a strong step forward in cementing Lvcidia as a global brand. Building off the foundation of our N1 collection, N2 showcases our limitless ambition. Under the leadership of Frank—our new creative director—Finery has been given a distinct logo and brand direction. N2 will be released as SIX monthly collections, with each month’s drop built around a unique color palette concept. We’ve also vastly expanded our offerings, adding new items such as caps, tote bags, sweatpants and more. The supply of each item will be lower than it was in N1, so don’t expect anything to last long. All items are first come, first served, no restocks. To learn more about this exciting new collection, check out our article here.
N2 // DROP #1 is available now. Existing Lvcidia collectors will receive a discount upon connecting their Web3 wallet to finery.lvcidia.xyz:
Fvck_Crystal Holders: 15% OFF
Fvck_Avatar Holders: 10% OFF

LVCIDIA X LEDGER QUEST
To thrive in this space, it’s important to make partnerships with teams we believe in. We’re thrilled to be collaborating with Ledger in their QUEST initiative, aiming to spread knowledge of the best Web3 safety practices. As noted on the Ledger Quest Website:
“A Quest is a quiz, or series of quizzes, that help you grow the knowledge and skills you need to safely navigate Web3. Each time you complete a quiz, you’ll receive a Proof-of-Knowledge NFT. Quests can be tailored to the needs of Web3 communities and brands, providing a high-quality onboarding experience, essential security knowledge and rewards for the members.”
While only having launched recently, Ledger has already collaborated with major projects and brands such as ApeCoin, Cool Cats, Deadfellaz, and Samsung. Lvcidia’s token-gated community quest launches on their site today, exclusive to Crystal and Avatar holders.
Completing the quiz with a perfect score will grant you a PoK NFT with beautiful new art by Fvckrender. It will also enter you into a raffle to receive a free hat from our new N2 Finery Collection. Regardless of your experience level in Web3, you’re sure to unlock new knowledge as you complete your quest.

WEBSITE REDESIGN
Thanks to the efforts of our brilliant web designers Deven and PL, Lvcidia.xyz recently underwent a major overhaul. The new design beautifully unifies the many branches of the Lvcidia ecosystem, making it easy to find the information you need. Our Journal page will feature articles about our new releases, an archive of newsletters, as well as explorations of exciting artists and innovations in the space. You’ll also want to keep an eye on the new Experiences tab, which will be the home of our monthly curated art releases beginning on June 30th.
TEAM EXPANSION
Bringing the dream of Lvcidia to reality requires the help and passion of many talented individuals. Recently our family has grown considerably, with an impressive lineup of new hires.
SACHA is our new Lead Unreal Engine Dev, further developing the Lvcidia immersive platform. ANDREW has been brought on as Project Manager, assisting in daily operations to ensure we meet timelines and deliver the best experience possible. QUENTIN—a smart contract developer—has begun work on the Deeds involved in Staking Era 2. Finally, we have added the 3D artist ISAIAS to our roster.
With the passion and support of these new team members, we will continue developing Lvcidia into an unforgettable awakening experience.
Be on the lookout this week for our first experience with featured artist Mad Dog Jones. Trust us when we say: you don’t want to miss this one.
Ryan is an LA-based writer and filmmaker. He began as a Lvcidia community member in early 2021, drawn to the cinematic beauty of Fvckrender’s virtual creations. His engagement with the community led to him becoming a moderator for the Discord, and in 2022 he was brought on officially to create Lvcidia’s newsletter. He now assists in writing articles for the Lvcidia journal, conducting interviews, and moderating the occasional live Q&A.
