ISN’T.

Rescue your Abstract NFTs. Preserve the art, bring your holders with you, and give your collection a future beyond a single chain.

Scan now. Built for founders and communities.

RIPABSTRACT

A MOMENT OF SILENCE. THEN BACK TO WORK.

MOURNING.
STILL BUILDING.

We're busy mourning the Abstract chain for now, but still, we're building. You'll be able to rescue your collection very soon.

A NEW CHAPTER STARTS HERE

Abstract is closing.

A chain can end. Your collection’s story doesn’t have to. Plan your rescue while the art, metadata, and holder records are still accessible.

Get ready

TWO WAYS IN.
ONE WAY FORWARD.

You built it, or you believe in it. The planned rescue flow gives founders and holders a clear path to preservation.

FOUNDER RESCUE

Founders

Give the collection you created its next chapter.

  1. 01

    Scan

    Provide the Abstract contract or OpenSea link. Verify founder status and review the collection and holder snapshot.

  2. 02

    Prepare

    Choose a destination. Review preserved art, metadata, royalties, and distribution settings.

  3. 03

    Pay and deploy

    Review the 0.1 ETH base package, required storage price, and estimated gas. Pay and deploy from your own wallet.

  4. 04

    Bring holders along

    Airdrop 1:1, or open a remap window before distribution.

COMMUNITY RESCUE

Community Rescue

Keep an abandoned collection alive, together.

  1. 01

    Scan

    Start as a holder. Review the collection’s assets and snapshot of the community.

  2. 02

    Make it transparent

    The new contract and collection name or description clearly identify the Community Rescue.

  3. 03

    Pay and deploy

    Choose the new chain, review the estimate, and deploy as the rescue organizer.

  4. 04

    Reunite the community

    Distribute 1:1 to snapshot holders, with an optional remap window.

Founder status: original deployer, contract owner(), or OpenSea collection owner. All other rescues carry the Community Rescue badge. Status verification arrives with the scan flow.

CHOOSE YOUR
NEXT HOME.

Three planned destinations. You choose the chain that fits your community, with costs visible before you commit.

Robinhood Chain

A new home for your collection’s next chapter.

CHAIN ID / 4663

Base

Keep your collection on Ethereum mainnet.

CHAIN ID / 1

SAVED ONCE.
SAVED FOREVER.

The goal is bigger than leaving Abstract. Your rescued collection will be natively bridgeable, using LayerZero V2 and the RatBastards bridge design, so a chain shutdown never has to be the end of its story again.

The design locks native NFTs on their new home chain and creates representations on supported destinations. Returning home burns the representation and releases the original, keeping one canonical NFT in circulation.

Planned capability. Bridge routes need to be configured and available. Move before a chain shuts down. No bridge can guarantee permanent availability.

ONE COLLECTION.
MORE THAN ONE FUTURE.

Preserved identityPortable ownershipLayerZero V2

MORE THAN
A COPY.

A complete rescue package, designed to preserve what makes your collection yours.

01

The art, preserved

Media and metadata prepared for your required storage choice: Basic IPFS storage or Fully onchain art, priced separately from the base package. The collection’s identity comes with it.

02

Your community, together

A block-based holder snapshot and a 1:1 airdrop with original token IDs preserved.

03

History that stays visible

Collection branding, links, and original OpenSea stats recorded alongside the Abstract contract provenance.

04

A future beyond one chain

An ERC-721 collection with royalties and planned LayerZero bridge capability, built on RatBastards’ design.

THE RESCUE BASE PACKAGE

YOUR COLLECTION.
CLEAR COSTS.

No payment today. Join the waitlist and prepare your community for launch.

Start a rescue

0.1 ETH

Base package + required storage tier + estimated gas

  • Collection scan and holder snapshot
  • Media and metadata preparation
  • Bridgeable contract deployment setup
  • OpenSea-ready collection metadata
  • 1:1 airdrop, with optional remap window

Checkout total: 0.1 ETH + storage + gas. Deployment and airdrop gas are paid from your own wallet, along with onchain storage gas if you choose the upgrade. The planned flow will show an itemized estimate after the scan, before you pay. Actual gas costs may change.

CHOOSE YOUR STORAGE.

Storage is required. Either tier is added on top of the 0.1 ETH base package.

Default

Basic IPFS storage

Pinning of media and metadata on IPFS.

Priced by collection size.

A paid addition to the base package. The planned scan will show your storage price before payment.

Upgrade

Fully onchain art

The art itself is stored onchain on your destination chain, so it lives as long as the chain does and travels with the bridgeable contract.

Price depends on collection size, media type and destination chain.

The exact estimate will be shown after the scan, before you pay, using the number of NFTs, media type (image, GIF, video), real file sizes, and your destination: Robinhood Chain, Base, or Ethereum.

Video onchain can be very expensive, especially on Ethereum. The planned flow will offer an optional per-file size cap or compression step, with a size and cost preview.

NEW CHAIN.
RIGHT WALLET.

Used an AGW or embedded wallet on Abstract? Your next NFT needs an address you can access on its new chain.

The organizer chooses a remap window. While it is open, holders sign with their Abstract wallet to prove ownership and register a new destination address.

Address registeredAirdrop to your new address

No remap registeredAirdrop to your original address

Remapping is planned for M4. It requires access to the original wallet and cannot recover a wallet you have already lost.

KNOW BEFORE
YOU GO.

Clear answers for your community’s next move.

What happens to my original NFTs?

Your original NFTs stay on Abstract. The planned rescue creates a new collection on your chosen chain, preserving original token IDs and distributing one rescued NFT for each token in the holder snapshot. It does not delete or transfer the originals.

Who can start a rescue?

Founders can rescue their collections. A holder can also start a Community Rescue when a founder has abandoned a project. Join the waitlist as a Founder or Holder to register your interest.

How is founder status verified?

In the upcoming rescue flow, the connected wallet must be the original contract deployer, the address returned by owner(), or the OpenSea collection owner. Otherwise the rescue is identified as a Community Rescue in the contract and collection name or description.

What is a remap window?

It is a period chosen by the rescue organizer during which holders prove control of their Abstract wallet by signing a message and register a destination address. After it closes, distribution uses the registered address, or the original address if no remap was registered.

What if I use an AGW or embedded wallet?

You may need a different address on the destination chain. The planned remap window lets you register one while you still have access to your Abstract wallet. It requires proof of control, so register before losing access. Wallet recovery is not part of this service.

Which destination chain should we choose?

The planned choices are Robinhood Chain, Base, and Ethereum. Choose with your community, considering wallet support, marketplace access, and current deployment and distribution costs. A gas estimate will be shown before you pay.

Who controls the new contract and royalties?

The verified founder, or the holder organizing a Community Rescue, will own the new contract and receive its ERC-2981 royalties. Royalty settings will be visible before deployment. Marketplace royalty enforcement can vary.

Is the rescue contract audited?

The save-nfts rescue contract has not been built or audited yet. This release supports collection scanning and previews. The planned bridge builds on RatBastards’ LayerZero V2 design, but that is not an audit of this service. Contract code, tests, and security information will be available before launch.

How much does a rescue cost?

The planned checkout total is 0.1 ETH base package + required storage tier price + estimated gas. Basic IPFS storage is priced by collection size. Fully onchain art depends on NFT count, media type, real file sizes, and destination chain. Deployment, airdrop, and any onchain storage gas are paid from your own wallet. An itemized estimate will be shown after the scan, before you pay. Joining the waitlist is free.

IPFS or fully onchain, which should I choose?

Basic IPFS storage is the default: it pins your media and metadata on IPFS, priced by collection size. Choose Fully onchain art if you want the art itself stored on the destination chain, living as long as that chain does and traveling with the bridgeable contract. Both storage tiers are paid additions to the 0.1 ETH base package. The planned scan will show an exact estimate before you pay.

Why can onchain video be expensive?

Onchain storage gas is driven by the actual bytes stored. Video files can be large, making fully onchain video very expensive, especially on Ethereum. The planned flow will offer an optional per-file size cap or compression step, with a size and cost preview before payment.

Does bridgeable mean my NFTs can never be lost?

Bridgeability is designed to prevent dependence on a single chain. A future move requires supported routes, working infrastructure, transaction fees, and action before a chain becomes unavailable. It does not guarantee permanent availability or remove smart contract and bridge risks.

FROM A COMMUNITY THAT BUILT FOR THE FUTURE

An initiative by RatBastards.

RatBastards NFTs were born from the will to create NFTs that never disappear. Their art is fully onchain, and the collection is multichain: NFTs can bridge between supported chains and keep moving with their community.

save-nfts brings that same thinking to collections that deserve another chapter.
