Sugartown Kicks Off CORES NFT Mint on May 13

Web3 gaming platform Sugartown is set to launch its CORES NFT mint today, May 13.

These progressive NFTs are designed to evolve over time, unlocking new in-game experiences, rewards, and exclusive content within the Sugartown ecosystem.

With a total of 6,500 CORES up for grabs, the mint will occur in four phases across two days, with different opportunities for ORA holders, whitelisted users, and the general public to participate.

What are CORES NFTs?

CORES are a new type of “progressive NFT” introduced by Sugartown. Unlike traditional static NFTs, CORES evolve over time, offering owners access to exclusive games, in-game rewards, and future perks. The core concept of CORES is to provide holders with incremental benefits, unlocking content such as:

• Access to Sugartown’s exclusive games
• Abstract XP farming
• Potential rewards in $WIN tokens
• Future perks linked to upcoming Sugartown features

These NFTs will be available in a limited supply of 9,999 (2,000 sold in a closed presale, 1,500 reserved for free Ora mints and 6,500 available across the GTD Ora paid mint, whitelist, and public raffle) each priced at 0.069 ETH (around $169).

The minting process will take place in stages to give different groups a chance to participate.

How to participate in the mint?

The minting of CORES NFTs will occur over four distinct phases, spread across two days:

• Phase 1 – Free Mint for ORA Holders (May 13, 8:00 – 14:00 ET)
  ORA holders can claim one CORES NFT for every three ORAs they own during this six-hour window. A snapshot of ORA holdings will be taken before the mint begins, so ensure your ORAs are in your wallet by the specified time.
• Phase 2 – Paid Mint for ORA Holders (May 13, 14:00 –20:00 ET)
  After the free mint phase, ORA holders can purchase up to two CORES NFTs for every three additional ORAs. This phase is open for 18 hours.
• Phase 3 – Whitelist First-Come, First-Served (May 14, 12:00 –13:00 ET)
  Whitelisted users can mint CORES on a first-come, first-served basis for one hour. The limit is two NFTs per wallet.
• Phase 4 – Public Raffle (May 14, 14:00 –00:00 ET)
  This phase is open to the public, where participants can enter a raffle to mint CORES NFTs. There are no limits to the number of entries per user, though a maximum of 20 entries per transaction is allowed. Non-winning entries will be refunded automatically.

To participate, users will need Abstract ETH in their wallets, as the minting process will occur on Abstract Chain, an Ethereum Layer 2 network.

ORA holders must also link their wallet to an Abstract Gaming Wallet (AGW) to access the full benefits of holding a CORES NFT.
