Asset Flow in the Arcaden Ecosystem
Understanding the flow of assets within Arcaden is crucial. Here's a breakdown:
$SALD: The primary entry point, accessible through various exchanges.
Credits and Shards: Obtainable via $SALD, credits lead to earning shards.
Collectibles and NFTs: Shards can be converted into collectibles, which in turn can be minted into NFTs.
Earning mSALD: Owning NFTs enables users to earn mSALD, a key currency in the reward system.
mSALD: The New Reward Currency
mSALD is the latest addition to the Arcaden universe. This off-chain currency is central to the rewards, allowing conversions into Credits or $SALD. Initially, mSALD can only be converted into Credits, with future plans to include $SALD conversion.
