# Bleeps

### What are Bleeps ?

Bleeps use the same pioneer concept introduced in [Mandalas.eth](https://mandalas.eth.limo/), where the metadata is fully generated from the contract, zero externalities, no backend, no ipfs, nor any client code required. While mandalas generated bitmaps, Bleeps generate sounds!

### How to get a Bleep ?

Bleeps are initially mintable through a sale at 0.1 ETH each. 75% of the proceeds go to the Bleeps DAO. There is a hard-coded max supply of 1024 sounds but only 576 sounds are currently available made of 9 instrument each composed of 64 notes (frequencies). 128 of them are currently reserved by the Bleeps' creator ([wighawag](https://github.com/wighawag)) and might be distributed differently. The rest of the Bleeps (448) do not yet exist but can potentially be created later at the discretion of the DAO.

### What are the benefits of owning a Bleep ?

Owning a Bleep transforms a mere user into a Bleeper. Bleepers are given vote in the Bleeps DAO and earn a passive revenue from Melodies created from Bleeps they own. They also get to vote on proposal about the DAO treasury which they manage. One Bleep, One Vote.
