What are RENGA Black Boxes?
The RENGA Black Boxes appeared on the first day of Summer. These boxes will ultimately be the portal for your RENGA character to enter this universe. As we progress, your character will be your key to everything RENGA.
What is the total supply of RENGA Characters?
The maximum possible supply of RENGA Characters is 10,000, but this number will be relative to the number of RENGA Black Boxes that are opened (burned).
How can I mint my RENGA Character?
Every RENGA Black Box holder will be given the opportunity to open their box (burn) and reveal a character (mint) from the RENGA universe via a burn-to-mint mechanism. Aside from the cost of gas, there will be no additional fees to open your box, and the option to open your box and reveal your character will be available until there are no remaining boxes.
