NFT project Jirasan is moving to reset its operations according to Founder and CEO Shan.

In a post published on Twitter/X, Shan acknowledged the project’s growing pains and outlined a clearer, more focused roadmap after what he described as an “overly ambitious” attempt to scale with limited resources.

The founder has committed to restructuring the team, reassessing leadership roles—including his own—and narrowing the project’s focus to deliver real revenue-backed growth.

What is Jirasan?

Jirasan is a collection of 10,000 NFTs that serve as membership passes to the PG Group and the broader Redacted ecosystem.

NFT holders receive various ecosystem benefits, most notably future airdrops of the native $RDAC token—which functions as the core utility and transactional asset of the Redacted platform.

Jirasan is part of a wider ecosystem aiming to build long-term web3 infrastructure and products.

What was the controversy about?

The controversy stemmed from growing dissatisfaction within the community over delays, unclear communications, and what some perceived as mismanagement and “slow-rugging.”

According to Shan, the team had only six full-time staff and relied heavily on short-term contractors, whilst simultaneously attempting to incubate and manage over 14 different products. This approach, the founder admitted, was “overly ambitious” and led to inefficiencies and underperformance across several fronts.

The founder also addressed rumours that the team had been dumping tokens or acting in bad faith. He denied these claims and stressed that the only funds used for $RDAC buybacks came from external revenue and not from the project treasury. He added that last week alone, 0.5% of the $RDAC supply had been bought and burned using these earnings.

What’s next for the project?

Founder and CEO Shan had announced several changes to restore confidence and improve execution, and a major overhaul is now underway.

  • A restructuring of management, development, and marketing teams
  • The establishment of dedicated web2 and web3 marketing divisions
  • A renewed, focused roadmap with the goal of reaching a $100M market cap by 2026
  • Reassessment of leadership roles

“We’ve stopped trying to do everything at once and are back to being sharp and intentional,” he wrote, adding that only high-accountability team members would remain moving forward.

OM Jumps 30% as Mantra CEO Announces Team Token Burn to Rebuild Trust After Crash https://earlybirdsinvest.com/om-jumps-30-as-mantra-ceo-announces-team-token-burn-to-rebuild-trust-after-crash/ https://earlybirdsinvest.com/om-jumps-30-as-mantra-ceo-announces-team-token-burn-to-rebuild-trust-after-crash/#respond Wed, 16 Apr 2025 08:44:41 +0000 https://earlybirdsinvest.com/om-jumps-30-as-mantra-ceo-announces-team-token-burn-to-rebuild-trust-after-crash/

After suffering a devastating 90% plunge a few days ago, Mantra (OM) is staging a partial rebound.

CEO John Patrick Mullin has pledged to burn his entire team’s token allocation, worth hundreds of millions of dollars, as a bold move to win back community trust following a massive liquidation event that rattled the ecosystem.

A Crash and a Comeback

On April 13, OM nosedived nearly 90% in under 24 hours, triggering panic and a wave of forced liquidations across crypto exchanges. Community speculation quickly turned toward the Mantra team, with accusations of insider dumping and manipulation.

However, Mullin responded swiftly and publicly, denying the allegations and clarifying that the team’s 300 million OM tokens remain locked until at least April 2027. In a move that’s both symbolic and strategic, he announced plans to permanently burn his entire allocation of 772,000 OM tokens, representing 0.25% of the team’s share.

“When we turn it around, the community and investors can decide if I’ve earned it back,” Mullin stated in a widely shared X post.

He also promised more transparency, a detailed post-mortem report, and a long-term token buyback program to restore confidence in the project’s fundamentals.

Whether these steps ignite a full recovery remains to be seen. But for now, the market has responded with a tentative vote of confidence.

Market Reaction: 31% Rebound Amid High Volatility

Following Mullin’s announcement, OM surged over 31% in the past 24 hours, currently trading around $0.7796, up from its post-crash low of under $0.5 on most exchanges.

The token also saw an intraday high of $0.91, suggesting strong buying interest despite lingering market uncertainty.
