Shoe-Minting

Shoe-Minting

Shoe-Minting Event (SME) is when users use 2 Sneakers they own as a blueprint to “breed”, producing a Shoebox in the process. For reference, the 2 Sneakers will be called Vintages (Parents). Both Vintages need to be in the user’s possession (not under lease) and have full durability to begin an SME.
Users can then select a Sneaker, by heading to the Mint tab, choosing the Sneaker to “breed” with, and pressing Mint to proceed. The user will instantly receive a Shoebox that can be opened immediately.
Users can perform a maximum of 7 SMEs per Sneaker. The higher SME count a Sneaker has, the more GST/GMT it will cost. Shoe-Minting costs for each Vintage is calculated separately and added together for the final Minting cost.
Shoe-Minting has a 48-hour cool down for both Vintages – Sneakers can still be used for movement.

Dynamic Minting Costs

Minting cost = GST (A) + [Base GMT (B) + Additional GMT ([A+B]*x)]
As of 15th June 2023, the additional GMT Cost is affected by the GST to GMT ratio "k", where k = GST / GMT
  1. 1.
    If k < 1, x = 0%;
  2. 2.
    If 1 < k < 2, x = 100%;
  3. 3.
    If 2 < k < 5, x = 200%;
  4. 4.
    If 5 < k < 10, x = 300%;
  5. 5.
    If 10 < k < 20, x = 500%;
  6. 6.
    If 20 < k < 50, x = 800%;
  7. 7.
    If 50 < k < 100, x = 1300%;
  8. 8.
    If k > 100, x = 2100%.
​
NOTE: Shoe-Minting cost will update daily on UTC 14:00. In extreme circumstances, we might adjust the Shoe-Minting cost multiple times a day.
The first two Shoe-Minting costs the same. Shoe-Minting has a chance to drop one extra Shoebox. The higher the Mint count, the higher the chance to drop multiple Shoeboxes.
The cost of Shoe-minting will be changed from time to time to balance the supply and demand of both GST and GMT.
Shoebox Quality is determined by the Vintage Sneaker's Quality:
