Q&A Session

This is a summary, not verbatim.

• Q: Will holders get a discount on merchandise? 
  • A: Yes. Holders are going to be getting their merchandise at the cost of goods.

  • A: Holders will stake their NFT to a contract, making it unavailable to sell. While staking, you will receive some sort of reward for keeping it staked instead of selling.
