# Kona Kitties

### Overview

Kona Kitties are unique NFTs within the Kona ecosystem. Lock KONA to mint a Kitty and equip tokenized gear to boost your power for use within the ecosystem.

***

### Core Mechanics

#### Minting a Kitty

Three paths to get a Kona Kitty:

**Genesis Sale**

* 200 supply
* ??? ETH per Kitty
* Includes KONA permenant locked
* 3.0x tier multiplier
* Max 3 per wallet

**Public Mint**

* Unlimited supply
* Starting price: ??? ETH (increases over time)
* You provide your own KONA to lock
* You choose lock duration
* 1.0x tier multiplier

**Staking Path**

* Stake KONA to earn mint eligibility over time
* 150 KONA staked = 1 free mint per 30 days
* Less KONA = longer wait (50 KONA = 90 days)
* Still requires KONA to lock in the Kitty
* 1.0x tier multiplier

#### Lock Durations

Longer locks receive higher power multipliers:

| Duration  | Multiplier |
| --------- | ---------- |
| 2 weeks   | 0.05x      |
| 1 month   | 0.1x       |
| 3 months  | 0.3x       |
| 6 months  | 0.6x       |
| 1 year    | 1.0x       |
| 2 years   | 2.0x       |
| 4 years   | 4.0x       |
| Permanent | 10.0x      |

Lock multipliers decay linearly as time passes. Permanent locks never decay.

You can extend your lock or convert to permanent anytime. You cannot reduce lock duration.

### Power Formula

```
Power = Locked KONA × Lock Multiplier × Tier Multiplier × Gear Modifier
```

**Example:**

* 100 KONA locked
* Permanent lock (10.0x)
* Genesis tier (3.0x)
* Max gear (25.0x)
* Power = 100 × 10 × 3 × 25 = 75,000

***

### Gear System

Equip gear to boost your Kitty's power.

#### Gear Slots

Each Kitty has 6 gear slots:

* Head
* Torso
* Feet
* Legs
* Hands
* Back

#### Gear Scoring

* Each gear piece: 1 to 10,000 score
* Maximum total: 60,000 (all slots maxed)
* Gear modifier: 1.0x at 0 score, up to 25.0x at 60,000 score

| Gear Score | Modifier |
| ---------- | -------- |
| 0          | 1.0x     |
| 10,000     | 5.0x     |
| 30,000     | 13.0x    |
| 60,000     | 25.0x    |

#### Acquiring Gear

Gear is purchased using Kona Points earned from:

* Farming on Kona Lend
* Trading on Kona Swap
* Protocol participation

Gear is ERC-1155 and tradeable on secondary markets.

### Tiers

| Tier    | Multiplier | How to Get                  |

### Kitties vs PEARL

Both use Kona Points. Both support KONA. Different purposes.

|              | Kitties        | PEARL        |
| ------------ | -------------- | ------------ |
| Purpose      | Yield Boost    | Governance   |
| Earns        | Boosts Yield   | Bribes, Fees |
| KONA         | Locked         | Burned       |
| Points usage | Gear purchases | Minting      |
| Boostable    | Yes (gear)     | No           |

Choose Kitties to earn passive protocol revenue. Choose PEARL to control emission allocation.
