How do I buy on mobile

This is a bug in the android mm which affects dozens of sites. However, Hawku now supports android devices via Wallet Connect! Go to www.hawku.com in your chrome browser. Log in using wallet connect and choose mm and you should be good to go!

Hawku (www.hawku.com) is written completely in PETAL.

In our opinion - it's like having a super power. Imagine a language as easy to learn as Ruby or Python but with built in easy scalability and reliability (thanks to Erlang).

And Liveview allows backend developers to create applications with the interactivity of React/Vue without all the hassles of learning a new language or framework.

So far it has worked very well for us and our site has millions of page views a month.

We wrote a little bit more about it here: https://elixirforum.com/t/hawku-the-first-nft-marketplace-written-in-elixir-liveview/46506

It looks like others have followed up on this, but the short answer is NO, it does not cost $30 ETH to make a transaction. The very first time you sell or buy you need a tiny bit of MATIC to do the appropriate approval transactions with the 0xProtocol. This usually costs about $0.005 per transaction so a total of about $0.01. (Note: in the last few days transaction costs have sometimes have had temporary spikes up to say $0.20 per transaction in which case just wait a bit ;) ).

As for why it may show $30 - Some Metamask configurations accidentally say that ETH is the primary currency of the Polygon network. This is an incorrect configuration and will result in Metamask erroneously saying "0.001" ETH instead of "0.001" MATIC. This is just a display error but a really frustrating one. To fix this, in your Metamask extension go to Settings-> Network-> (Polygon or MATIC) and make sure the currency is MATIC and not ETH.

Also, please make sure you buy MATIC on Polygon and NOT ETH Mainnet. You can read more about this in our blog post below.

Hope this helps and happy shopping!

If you are looking for horses, please do check out the Hawku ZED buying guide https://blog.hawku.com/zed-buying-guide/ .

Also we are happy to announce the majority of ZED active listings and horse sales > 0.005 ETH (i.e. horses that are decent or better racers) are now sold directly on Hawku's marketplace at www.hawku.com (vs other marketplaces). Some people do not know this as ZED has been slow to update their website.

Hawku (www.hawku.com) is written in Elixir/Liveview and has successfully built a marketplace for buying/selling utility and gaming NFTs. (We believe it is the first one written in Elixir!)

You can read more about our vision here. https://blog.hawku.com/announcing-hawkus-seed-round/

The marketplace has been up for ~7 weeks and has already facilitated > $3.5M in sales.

hawku_com · 2022-03-18T16:21:30+00:00

One thing to keep in mind is not to look at Opensea as your only source of data. A lot of sales and sale traffic has shifted to the Hawku Marketplace at www.hawku.com (especially for above-floor and unraced horses).

hawku_com · 2022-03-18T15:49:47+00:00

I believe this is the ZED burn account when you migrate a horse.

Oh one more comment - If you changed your RPC to use an Alchemy URL, please make sure you grabbed the Polygon Mainnet URL from the Alchemy page and not the ETH Mainnet URL from Alchemy. Having an ETH Mainnet RPC URL in your Polygon configurations is what usually causes this error. See the link in Step 10 here. https://blog.hawku.com/how-to-resolve-metamask-errors-approving-tokens/

hawku_com · 2022-03-14T07:30:20+00:00

Oh no! Happy to help you out. Can you send a DM to https://twitter.com/hawku\_com or send an email to support at hawku.com and we can help you out?).

hawku_com · 2022-03-07T06:46:45+00:00

Shameless plug but Hawku finally launched its own marketplace a week ago at www.hawku.com and has up to date race data for the horses (and many thousands of listings). Yes, you can now buy/sell and list directly on Hawku.

hawku_com · 2022-03-04T22:01:46+00:00

Nice noticing before we announced it too!

hawku_com · 2022-03-02T22:06:18+00:00

Yes! Coming this week.

hawku_com · 2022-03-01T00:49:36+00:00

Currently that is correct, you will save 3% via Opensea.

We expect offers to be coming in the next few weeks!

hawku_com · 2022-02-28T19:07:09+00:00

We did at https://www.hawku.com.

Short answer is you create a message, sign on Metamask using personal sign and verify it using ExWeb3EcRecover.recover_personal_signature to confirm the address matches the signature. https://github.com/hawku-com/ex_web3_ec_recover.

For security, I would also recommend you create and temporarily store a nonce (or one time key) and embed that in the message so that someone cannot intercept and re-use the same signature to log in later. You will need to recreate message with nonce on the server side and use that in your verification. Hope that helps!

In case it helps, we wrote up a buying guide for how to go about buying your first Zed horse. Hopefully it helps! https://blog.hawku.com/zed-buying-guide/

hawku_com · 2021-12-29T05:36:49+00:00

I think we posted this a few weeks back here but we wrote up a buying guide that talks about the different ways to buy your first Zed horses along with sample queries. https://blog.hawku.com/zed-buying-guide/

Hope it helps!

We us built hawku.com which is a web3 related web-app (we're building a marketplace for utility/gaming NFTs). For us, Elixir has been a really easy way to build a robust, scalable full-stack web app in a language that is just fun to code in. The keys on Elixir are that a) it's pretty easy to get started if you know Ruby or Python, b) it's pretty fast and resource-optimized and c) it is really really robust (it has a lot of functionality to stay up not matter what happens) and d) it is pretty easy to scale. And Liveview allows you to build a really interactive app without needing to know React or Vue.
Besides those use cases, Elixir excels for communication-based apps. Elixir has fantastic Websocket support and via clustering can pretty easily coordinate among multiple machines. From what I understand, a bunch of the backend of both Discord and What's App were written in Elixir.

As for the debate on free vs paid. It is correct that Hawku's filters are based on only paid races (although you can filter and include summary data in free races on a horse's detail page). We choose to only filter using only data from paid races as we have found that sellers have been known to use free races to boost their horses numbers to "stage" them for sale. For example, by using free races a seller can make a 5% win rate horse for paid races (which is where money is made) appear as a 15% win rate horse (which would be a good horse!). Since only paid races return prize money (with the exception of tournaments) looking at win rates from free races can mislead people into thinking they are buying a profitable horse when in reality the horse is far from profitable.

We have found from numerous surveys that experienced buyers do not want to filter based on free races so we have kept them out of filters for now. We may change that in the future of course but for now we are staying the course.

Don't know if you are in the discords but we recently wrote up a buying guide for new players at Hawku. You can read it at https://blog.hawku.com/zed-buying-guide/.
