- As an “access pass” to withdraw the BTC yield in ckBTC from user NFT vault to the wallet that holds the NFT
- Stakable to get LOM token as the native token of the platform
- As the “origin NFT” to mint new mining contract. All users will need another NFT owned by other user as the “origin NFT” to mint new mining contract except it’s a Genesis NFT.
The first batch of mining contracts can be minted by handful of users in the allow list who already completed the tasks when Loka Platform launched in the testnet as early contributors.
These mining contract NFTs are called “Genesis” because they don’t need any “origin NFT” and the holders are called “The Loka OGs”.
NFT Vault is a loosely term similar to “bank account” in Loka platform from user’s perspective, but associated to each mining contract represented by Loka NFT.
- The place where the bitcoin mining yield yield is transferred in ckBTC every 24h until contract expires. Users can withdraw ckBTC anytime.
- The place where users “deposit” the energy token (LET) as a form of payment to electricity until contract expires. Every day, the vault will burn the LET based on the energy consumption of the mining contract
