we hosted an amazing AMA with Black Lemon on the 7th of September
And here we will put some of the best questions:
Q1. Can you introduce yourself to our community?
we are Really glad and honored to introduce our project concept to your community, I am Omar Chakhachiro, Partner, PR and Talents Director at Black Lemon, having a solid experience in the fintech industry along with Events and Marketing experience with top leading agencies in the world, nevertheless, Ghassub Chedid, the founder and CEO of Black lemon,he holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Computer Graphics & Interactive Media, and a Minor in Graphic Design, both graduated with honors. After he got his university degrees, he never stopped learning; he self-taught himself and took dozens of courses in digital project management, digital/offline marketing, UI/UX, the overall concept of different technologies and coding languages, and lately Blockchain technologies and NFTs.
Q2. Can you briefly tell us what is Black Lemon ?
we brought BLACK LEMON to life only a few months ago to be an all-encompassing universe that is a thriving amalgam of art, finance, gaming and crypto.
BLACK LEMON, a first-of-its-kind NFT Production House not just in the MENA but in the world, and we seek to provide a one-of-a-kind “Experience to Earn” model and strive to become the top NFT producer with one main aim: produce, network, promote, and sell epic, unique niche NFT experiences and artworks.
We produce Limited-Edition NFT Experiences & Artworks while also offering digital art/tech creation services to influencers, celebrities, brands, etc. These include VR, 3D & 2D modeling, skinning, animation, interactive designs, digital drawings, photo-videography, & sound effects using top and latest technologies including Unity3D & Unreal Engine.
Q3. Let’s now talk about the milestones you have achieved so far and about your upcoming plans?
We are at the Final Stage of Whitelist Sale!
We are really overwhelmed with the responses and orders, as we sold 85% of our Unique and Scarce NFTs,
3 Categories are sold out, and very few remaining to be sold at our BLACK LEMON SEED NFT Market.
For example our BLACK ONYX SEED NFTs, there are only 3 of them left and already 27 asked for them.
Each is at 16,000 BUSD.
Q4. Every project has a story behind their name, Can you tell us more about the story behind this? Who are the team behind this project? can tell us their background?
We noticed that there are 2 huge gaps in the market that not many yet have explored.
1st is the Middle East region where not even a single celebrity has minted an NFT yet and they are way behind on the whole NFT hype.
The 2nd gap in the market is that most artists don’t know and can’t yet grasp the concept of blockchain technology, tokens, minting, fees, token transfers and all crypto related practices and there isn’t anyone there to guide them.
They are busy drawing, or creating, they unfortunately don’t even have time to market themselves correctly.
We have access to a wide range of artists, we have hosted the top NFT artists on our group and featured more than 60 on our platform.
This was easily achieved because there was no one else in the market offering what we do and everyone jumped in!
The Middle East is a big region with many countries adopting blockchain due to no government trust, corruption, fiat inflation.
Adoption is coming in masses soon and BLACK LEMON was born to lead it when it comes to ART, Gaming, NFT and more.
We are more than 20 people& our team leaders have more than 10 years of experience each in their respective fields, whether it’s art, technology, finance, building visual effects, PR, etc
The whitepaper has the team leaders’ photos and titles, you may research us. Our reputation in the market is clean; and we are known to be professionals at what we do.
Q5. DeFi is one of the hottest and most sought-after topics in the blockchain space right now. Can you share your opinion on DeFi with us? Do you think DeFi will disrupt the current financial system? What is Black Lemon’s approach to the DeFi sector?
DeFi cuts out these middlemen and gatekeepers. And because DeFi is built on the blockchain, it has a number of inherent advantages over CeFi.
Any smart contract on the Ethereum blockchain is public.
Also, all transactions on Ethereum are public; it’s much easier to audit a company’s data if you need to, making it harder for fraudsters to steal people’s money.
No one person can control the blockchain, so no one person can take you down, freeze your assets, or stop you from using their program, either. Even if a DeFi project wanted to stop you from using their product, there’s no way they can!
As for Black Lemon Concept and Token Launch Program, we are firstly launching our Token on a Decentralize Exchange ( DEX) Pankacake swap & Moonlift Protocol DEX by the adoption of Binance Smartchain, also allowing our SEED NFT Holder to Stake their NFT in order to earn our Token $BOM.
And here we will put best questions from our members and Black Lemon fans:
Q1) You recently shared on Twitter that @garyvee is launching an NFT restaurant concept in New York City, which is quite interesting, so I’m curious to know what role BLACK LEMON plays in this type of innovation, how are you helping to promote NFTs around the world?
Black Lemon are always Producing valuable editorial content, research & featured industry news from across the globe, including trending NFT artworks, collaborations, new on boarded NFT artists, & more, to become the hub for all NFT related content in the medium.
Q2) I read that, BLACK LEMON launched in Lebanon and will soon expand to Dubai in the UAE, and they are working to bring the region into the NFT industry. But will they focus on the NFT evolution of the specific region or do they want to become a global project?
Our reach is global, and our aim is to be global. But since we are the first NFT Production House in the MENA, we wanted to emphasize on this point so everyone knows and we are able to create awareness on the opportunities of the NFT industry.
we are very glad and honored to be published on top Crypto and NFT news Globally!
Q3) I read that your platform aims to be bilingual, providing the latest news on NFT and crypto, and educational and media content in both English and Arabic. But, how important is the Arab market for you and what wishes do you have to expand to other global markets such as Spanish?
We first launched our project in the English language to be able to connect with the already-developed English-speaking crypto and NFT enthusiasts, but we are already working on translating all our content to Arabic and other languages, and once our multilingual communication is available, then our strengths will be both the Middle East and the international community.
Black Lemon’s aim to spread this awareness for crypto and non-crypto users to get to know more about the market and industry
Q4) How many total BlackLemon SEED NFTs slots is being allocated for the whitelist sale and how many SEED NFTs do you have left available for grabs during the ongoing whitelist sale? how do I make payment during the pre-sale and when is the presales going to come to an end?
We had a total of 346 SEED NFT for sale, across 6 categories, starting price of 650 BUSD for Platinum White SEED reaching 25,000 BUSD for Divine Amethyst SEED.
We managed to sell 296 SEED NFT, left us with only 50 NFTS.
All our NFTs are 1 of 1 maintaining a high scarcity for all Holders.
Q5) Do you have any plans to attract #Non-crypto investors to your project . Because it is the success of a project to get more investors who are still not in the crypto world. What are the plans to increase awareness around your in non-crypto space to invest in your community…?
We are always looking out to non-crypto users to get on the train and invest in such projects, as we are having Video Tutorials, Black Lemon Academy and our educational posts are the main essence for non-crypto user to get onboard and learn the essentials to start investing.
Sucess comes from everyone in the community, it is not made to a specific person or project, thats what we aim for everyone to be aware and benefit from all aspects going around!

Our token ticker name is $BOM

10M initial BOM Circulation supply
No tokens were sold at all for early investors during private sale or whitelist-sale or anything.
The only way to get our token early is by pre ordering our SEED NFTs during the Whitelist Sale now.
You’ll have to stake it to mint our token $BOM.

Q7) While you build your project, do you take into account community feedbacks and demands?While you build your project, do you take into account community feedbacks and demands?
Good Question, Each SEED NFT has power governance in order for the community to vote on main decision and suggestion for the growth of the project!
