We're in a transformative era for gaming, similar to the shift from pay-to-play to free-to-play models. Web3 technologies are increasingly integrated into free games, giving players full control over their in-game assets. In this new model, gamers own their digital items and are rewarded for their engagement and contributions to the game's growth. Revenue shouldn't only go to developers; the community’s role in enriching the game’s ecosystem means they deserve a share of the profits. Our mission is to boost player enjoyment through great gameplay, fair rewards, and robust economic systems.

$TERRANITE is the native token of the Stellar Subterranean ecosystem, meaning it will be the utility token of every game and product we ship. $TERRANITE holders will be able to claim rewards if they stake their tokens and play the game. Players will also be able to earn $TERRANITE when they play various event within the  Stellar Subterranean game.

The $TERRANITE token serves multiple purposes within the Stellar ecosystem. All transactions on the Stellar marketplace are finalized using $TERRANITE. Additionally, $TERRANITE will be required as an entry fee for players to participate in special game event modes that offer substantial rewards. Once the full economic system is operational and $TERRANITE is more widely distributed, holders of the token will gain the ability to influence specific game-development decisions. Furthermore, new use cases for $TERRANITE will be introduced gradually over time.
