## Hardcore mode

1. Go to <https://run.ecdao.org/> or open your terminal with flow-cli.
2. Choose mainnet.
3. Insert the transaction and input the quantity you want to inscribe. (Adjust quantity if the transaction does not go through)
4. Run the transaction.

```swift
import FlowToken from 0x1654653399040a61
import NonFungibleToken from 0x1d7e57aa55817448
import Flowmap from 0x483f0fe77f0d59fb

transaction(qty: UFix64) {
  prepare(signer: AuthAccount) {
      if(signer.borrow<&Flowmap.Collection>(from: Flowmap.CollectionStoragePath) == nil) {
          signer.save<@NonFungibleToken.Collection>(<- Flowmap.createEmptyCollection(), to: Flowmap.CollectionStoragePath)
          signer.unlink(Flowmap.CollectionPublicPath)
          signer.link<&{Flowmap.CollectionPublic}>(Flowmap.CollectionPublicPath, target: Flowmap.CollectionStoragePath)
      }

      let vaultRef = signer.borrow<&FlowToken.Vault>(from: /storage/flowTokenVault)?? panic("Could not borrow reference to the owner's Vault!")

      let inscriptionFee <- vaultRef.withdraw(amount: Flowmap.inscriptionFee * qty) as! @FlowToken.Vault

      Flowmap.batchInscribe(inscriptionFee: <-inscriptionFee, quantity: qty, receiver: signer.address)

  }
}
```
