$SNAP — the currency inside SnapDragon

A plain-language guide to the token that lives inside the game. $SNAP is the game's in-world currency — something you spend to play, not something you're promised money for holding.

A game first

SnapDragon is a warm, hand-drawn survival adventure you play with cards. You gather and build by day; at night something attacks, and the cards you packed decide the roll. $SNAP is the game's in-world currency. That's all it is — and that's the whole point.

Most crypto games are built the other way around: a token first, a game bolted on to give it something to do. SnapDragon inverts that. The game came first; the economics exist to serve players.

The game funds itself through card sales, not token sales. The creator's revenue comes from players buying cards, packs, and rentals — priced in SOL and dollars. Nobody's livelihood depends on the token's price, which is exactly why the game can't be pressured into the choices that wreck these projects.

The token serves players, not holders. $SNAP is something you spend to play — not something you're promised money for holding. No yield, no staking reward, no "earn" loop. It's game currency, the way gold is game currency.
Provably not a rug is a feature, not the product. The fun is the product. But because this space is full of extraction, we build the trust in public: supply fixed, authorities revoked, liquidity locked, treasury posted in the open.
You never need it. If you never touch $SNAP, you can still play the whole game. That's by design.

What $SNAP is for — an optional utility layer inside the game:

Farm cards — lock $SNAP (or SNAP–SOL liquidity) in a vault and it produces cards over time. Vaults produce cards, never tokens.
Shop at a discount — the in-game shop accepts $SNAP at a standard 15% discount versus SOL.
Rent a card to try it — trial the week's featured card for a single run.
Speed things up (later) — optionally spend $SNAP to finish a farming cycle early (roadmap).
Enter events (later) — tournaments where the prize pool is $SNAP players themselves put in.

Supply & allocation

The entire 1B supply is mapped, publicly, before liquidity is ever created — every address, its purpose, and its lock link.

Bucket	Share	Tokens	Lock / vesting
Liquidity (LP)	15%	150M	Seeded into the pool; position permanently locked or burned day one
Community / ecosystem	45%	450M	Program-owned escrow — events & player airdrops, ≤10%/quarter. Never paid as yield.
Treasury / ops	30%	300M	12-month linear unlock (Streamflow); no sales without 7 days' notice
Team (founder)	10%	100M	6-month cliff, then 24-month linear vest; publicly labeled "Team"

The anti-stealth promise. The 10% team bucket is the founder's entire position — no hidden wallets, no anonymous launch-day buys. It's a locked, community-contingent set-aside: realized slowly over years, and only if the game and its community are still here. At launch, the only tokens the market can touch are the 15% in the pool; every other bucket is behind a third-party-verifiable lock before the pool is even created.

How value flows

The real economy is priced in SOL and dollars; $SNAP is the optional rail alongside it.

Players buy cards · packs · rentals

Priced in SOL / USD → this is the creator's revenue, and it funds the game.

$SNAP — the optional utility layer

Farm cards · shop discount · rent-to-try · (later) accelerate. Always a choice, never required.

Activity burns $SNAP

Fees, discounts, and rentals remove tokens from a fixed supply — so more play means more scarcity.

Game prices are never wired to the token's market price. Every card, pack, and rental is priced in SOL or dollars. No mechanic is priced off the $SNAP market — so a thin or volatile token can't distort what things cost in the game. It's a deliberate guardrail. And because the creator's income comes from card sales, the token pool doesn't need to be big to keep the game healthy — it starts small and grows with the community.

The fee schedule

Every fee, stated plainly. Most money moves in SOL; $SNAP fees are mostly burned — a fixed-supply token gets healthier as activity destroys tokens.

Fee	What it is	Currency	Where it goes
NFT mint fee	Cost to mint a card NFT to your wallet	SOL	Network gas + a small ~$0.10 protocol fee → treasury
Vault claim fee	Small fee to claim a finished card from a vault	$SNAP	100% burned
Card rental	Try the week's featured card for one run	~$1 SOL or ~$0.90 $SNAP	SOL → 100% treasury; $SNAP → 100% burned (~30% platform margin on SOL)
Shop — SOL path	Buy a card/pack outright (Common $15, Rare $45)	SOL	100% treasury
Shop — $SNAP path	Same purchase, 15% discount vs SOL	$SNAP	50% burned / 50% treasury
$1 First Pack	A new wallet's first pack — 12 playable cards	~$1	Welcome cost, not profit — priced to cover mint
$25 Core Starter Bundle	Always-available, tradable 12-card starter deck	$25	100% treasury
Acceleration (roadmap)	Optionally finish a farming cycle early (~1.6× reference; always dearer than patience)	$SNAP	50% burned / 50% treasury
Crafting / repair / re-roll	In-game crafting & upkeep	$SNAP	75% burned / 25% treasury
Bounty-injection (roadmap)	Inject a Bounty Monster for tougher fights & better card loot	SOL or $SNAP-burn	Sink + treasury
Trophy / monster royalty (roadmap)	Secondary-sale royalty on tradable trophies	SOL	5% creator royalty (Metaplex)

The pattern: SOL fees are the creator's cash and fund the game; $SNAP fees are mostly burned, and burns scale with how much the game is played. And the fees enforce a ladder — farming is always the cheapest way to get a card, then the shop, then (later) acceleration. Spending money never beats patience; it only buys speed.

Liquidity & the market

The pool starts small and symbolic, and grows with the community. The creator seeds the launch pool with a small amount and then permanently locks that position. From there, liquidity deepens over time as the community and card-buyers participate. We're explicit about this: the token lists small and low-key, on purpose.

Venue: Raydium CPMM on Solana, $SNAP/SOL — standard, verifiable, routable through Jupiter.
The founder's liquidity is locked forever — it earns swap fees but the principal is never withdrawable. That's the anti-rug promise, on-chain from day one.
Fair-launch protections at open: an allowlist window, per-wallet caps, and anti-sniper measures.

This is explicitly not a place to speculate. We don't publish price targets, we don't talk about "the token going up," and we'd rather you spend $SNAP in the game than trade it. Buying stays "coming soon" until the pool is live and the locks are posted — then the link points to the canonical, verified pool.

🔑 You'll need a Solana wallet to hold or buy $SNAP. It's also how you own your cards and use the vaults. New to Solana? Here's how to get a wallet →

The receipts

Trust isn't a slogan here — it's a set of on-chain facts anyone can check, all published on a public transparency page.

Supply fixed at 1B and can never grow — mint authority revoked at genesis.
Supply can never be frozen or altered — freeze authority revoked, metadata immutable.
Liquidity permanently locked — the LP position locked or burned day one, lock tx posted publicly.
No stealth team wallet — the founder's entire 10% is a single labeled, vested, locked position.
Every non-circulating bucket behind a public, third-party-verifiable lock, with links published.
A full supply map — 100% of supply — published before the pool is created.
A monthly plain-language treasury report; treasury never sells without 7 days' notice.
Runway is never held in $SNAP — retained revenue converts to stable value, so ops never depend on token price.

The standard: locked, revoked, and posted in the open.

Roadmap for the token

Some utility features are intentionally not live at launch — they wait until card-sale revenue funds an independent security review and legal counsel signs off, and every one rewards players with cards, trophies, or items, never tokens. Two lines we hold firmly: no new tokens will ever be emitted (supply stays fixed at 1B), and no feature will ever be framed as "earning" or yield.

What $SNAP is NOT

We'd rather be clear than clever, so here it is straight:

Not an investment. We don't offer it as a way to make money, and nothing about it is designed to appreciate for your benefit.
No yield, APY, staking reward, or passive income. Farming produces cards, not tokens. Locking $SNAP earns you no tokens — ever.
No promised returns. No price targets, no "get in early," no buyback promises. If you see language like that attached to SnapDragon, it isn't from us and it isn't true.
Not required to play. Start with a $1 first pack or a $25 starter, buy cards in SOL, and play the whole game without ever holding the token.
Furniture, not the pitch. It's the in-world currency — like gold in any game. Show it, spend it, ignore it. The game is the point.

What it is: an optional in-game currency you spend on cards, packs, power-ups, discounts, and entry — inside a game that's fun first and funded by card sales. Beat the level. Claim its card. Some cards can only be won — never bought.
