Brand the BalticsSolana Baltics · Season 1 · No. 001–005 · starts Vilnius, 16 Sept
Put your cube on the wall. Sponsor Season 1 of Solana Baltics events.
You pick the cubes, anywhere on the wall, as many as you like, and pay in USDC on Solana; the chain is the order book. Your cube then stands behind the stage at five nights, No. 001 to 005, and in the backdrop of five online events: one payment, ten appearances. Thirty-five cubes, ever, and every cube in the wall lifts the price of the next. The VIP sponsor takes the block of nine at the top and buys everyone their first drink. One season at a time. From 100 USDC.
Season 1. Three ways in.
Prices are for the season, in USDC: five nights and the backdrop of five online events, one payment. Pick your cubes on the wall, pay on Solana, send the artwork. The chain is the order book: first valid payment takes the position. USDC on Solana, nothing else.
Win a cube for free. Top the leaderboard.
Play Tetris with our sponsors. Best run per player, live from the game. When the clock hits zero, #1 gets one cube on the wall for the whole season, free — anything they like on it.
Sponsors on the wall
Receipts
What a night is
Three acts, the same shape every month, in Vilnius, Riga and Tallinn in turn. Sponsors get a slot, never the room. Everything paid is said out loud. A season is five nights, No. 001 to 005, and between them five online events where the same wall is the backdrop.
One talk
Forty minutes, one talk or demo. The VIP sponsor gets five minutes of it.
The matching round
"I have / I need" on paper, matches stamped. Partners and the VIP sponsor put a card on the table like everyone else.
The party
The first drink is on the VIP sponsor, and everyone hears whose it is. The cube wall is behind the stage all night and in every photo.
RSVP is free. The wall, the first drink and the matching round are all on the night.
RSVP on LumaTwo days after the night every sponsor gets a receipt: how many came, how many matches were stamped, how many problems got solved and at what tier, three photos with the wall, and what the money paid for. Sponsors never get the list.
The rules
Short, and we keep to them.
Every logo is approved by hand
No token shilling, no gambling, no adult content, nothing we wouldn't stand next to on stage. We decide, and we tell you within a day.
Payments are final, except two cases
If we reject your artwork you get 48 hours to send another; if none comes, your cube prints with your name only. We always refund a payment for a position that was already taken.
The wall happens at 2,500 USDC
If the season has not raised 2,500 USDC by the lock, the wall is not built and every payment is refunded in full, to the wallet it came from or one you name. Above it, everything stands.
First payment wins
The first transaction confirmed on chain takes a position. A second payment for a taken position is refunded the same day.
One VIP sponsor per season
The block of nine at the top for all five nights, the first drink in your name every night, a slot on stage. One per season, first payment takes it.
What we can and can't promise
We can't promise impressions. We can tell you how many came, how many matches were stamped, and that the wall is behind the stage and in every photo.
The top Tetris player gets a cube for free
The leaderboard runs on a clock. Whoever is #1 when it hits zero gets one cube on the wall for the whole season, free, with anything they like on it (the same approval as everyone else). The clock is the lock, the same one at the top of the page, so the winning cube prints with this wall. We confirm the winner before printing, so keep a screen recording of your big run.
Where the money goes
The first drink for everyone, the room, the cubes, the bounties. Every night's receipt says what came in and what it paid for.
Questions
How can I pay?
In USDC on Solana, the exact amount shown. Checkout gives you an address that is yours for that purchase: send the USDC there from any wallet or exchange, nothing else to add, or scan the code with Phantom, Solflare or Backpack, or pay from a browser wallet. Holding SOL? Swap to USDC first on Jupiter, it takes a minute. USDC on Solana only, no card and no bank transfer.
Where can a cube go?
Anywhere inside the 7 × 5 wall. Select as many as you like. If yours would float, we put blank cubes under it; they show up greyed on the plan and stay for sale.
What if the wall does not reach 2,500 USDC?
Then it is not built, and every payment is refunded in full by the lock, to the wallet it came from or one you name. Above 2,500 everything stands, and the bar next to the wall runs on to the full wall.
Two people pay for the same cube?
The chain decides: the first payment confirmed on Solana takes the cube. The second one stays on its own order address and is refunded, or moved to other cubes if you prefer.
Why does the price change?
Thirty-five cubes is the whole wall, ever; nine are the VIP block and one is ours. The first cube costs 100 USDC and each cube already in the wall raises the next one by 7 %, so cube 12 is about 210 and the last is about 507. A selection of several cubes costs the next several steps. When a cube comes out, the price drops back.
What does the VIP sponsor get?
One per season, 5,000 USDC, for all five nights and the five online events. The first drink for everyone in your name, said at the door and from the stage; five minutes in act 1; a card in the matching round; the block of nine at the top of the wall; the Luma page and the recap; the nine cubes afterwards if you want them; and the receipt.
What artwork do you need?
A square PNG, JPG, WebP or SVG, at least 1,000 × 1,000 px (2,000 is better), for the front face of your cube, plus an optional line of text printed under it. You add both in checkout and see them on your cubes before you pay. Light artwork on the dark cubes reads best. Bought a solid block, say 2 × 2? Then it is one picture across all four faces (a 2 × 2 wants at least 4,000 × 4,000 px); we split it per face for print. Cubes that don't form a rectangle each get the picture.
What is a season?
Five real-life nights, No. 001 to 005, in Vilnius, Riga and Tallinn in turn, plus five online events where the wall is the backdrop. Your cube is in all ten. Pay after a print lock and your cube joins from the next night; the online backdrop updates right away.
What happens to my cube after the season?
It comes out of the wall. You can take it home, book it again for the next season, or leave it with us. Cubes carry a number in the archive; the first ones are No. 001.
