With CATALYSTs, users also gain the ability to mint their published ASSETs, allowing for the monetization of their collections. Moreover, each token corresponds to one copy of an NFT, and users can mint multiple copies based on the number of CATALYSTs in their wallet, with token required per copy of the ASSET.
The CATALYSTs system introduces five distinct types, each influencing the outcome of the minting process:
- Legendary
- Epic
- Rare
- Uncommon
- Common
The type of CATALYSTs used determines the rarity of the resulting ASSET. For equipment-based NFTs, CATALYSTs also provide a fixed amount of points that users can distribute among different attributes, thereby enhancing gameplay.
Notably, CATALYSTs play a pivotal role in determining the rarity and performance enhancement of minted equipment. They also hold Attribute points that users can allocate to Power, Defence, and Speed, with the Tier of each token determining the number of Attribute points awarded. Thus, this innovative feature adds a dynamic and strategic layer to the minting process, offering users a more engaging and customizable experience within The Sandbox platform.
How to Get Your Own CATALYST Tokens
The Sandbox will introduce CATALYSTs through a strategic distribution to ecosystem contributors, enhancing the engagement of its community. The distribution is as follows:

- Winter Event Rewards: In addition to SAND rewards, LAND owners who fulfill the Winter Event requirements will also receive CATALYSTs. This initiative aims to recognize and reward active participants in The Sandbox community, providing an extra layer of value to contributors during the festive season.
The introduction of CATALYSTs through this distribution underscores The Sandbox’s commitment to fostering community involvement and enhancing the overall user experience within its virtual ecosystem.
