Congratulations on making it onto the Torque Drift 2 whitelist! A standard keychain NFT will be airdropped in your wallet on July 14 (PDT). Note that It may take up to 24 hours for it to show up in your wallet due to processing time. Now, let’s seize that premium keychain NFT and enjoy a bunch of in-game perks in the future!
The premium keychain NFT unlocks further benefits including a complimentary bobblehead NFT to be airdropped at a later stage; unique in-game player titles; paint jobs and decals; access to member-only sales, and an exclusive VIP discord channel.
Priced at 2500 REVV with a total quantity of 5,000 pcs, the premium keychains will have the 1st private sale starting from 14 July 4pm (PDT) with a release of 1,500 pcs, and two more private sales after that at later dates, with a release of 1,500 pcs and 2,000 pcs respectively.
This utility NFT can hold additional ornaments in-game and will be shown on players’ profile customisation options. Keychains can also be spotted in a player’s garage, on their race suit belt during matchmaking, and in their car’s ignition while driving.
So, how do I “Mint” a Premium Keychain?
The creation of new NFTs is referred to as “minting”, and the steps involved with minting your premium keychain are not too different from buying something on eBay.
First of all, you need to have enough funds to mint/purchase in your digital wallet.
1 x premium keychain costs2500 Polygon REVV, which is roughlyUSD$43(approx. as of 12 July 2022). Now, you might be wondering what is “REVV”.
REVV is a utility token used to mint Torque Drift 2 NFTs and is part of the REVV Motorsport ecosystem. REVV exists on multiple different blockchains, including Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, and Polygon. As Torque Drift 2uses the Polygon (Matic) Blockchain, we’ll make sure in this tutorial you purchase the correct one.
You can think of REVV like a type of in-game currency like diamonds, gems, or Bullion in Torque Drift 1. However, you can’t purchase REVV directly with traditional currencies (like USD or JPY). Instead, we can use the Blockchain network to do a swap with the Polygon MATIC token, which is another type of cryptocurrency, similar to bitcoin.
Unlike many games with in-game currencies, REVV is a currency that also has monetary value outside of the game world. One of the biggest pros of REVV is its cross-title acceptance. Outside of Torque Drift 2, you can also use it in other motorsport titles such as REVV Racing, MotoGP Ignition, and more games to come.
So in summary, the process is USD>MATIC>REVV. Using an online converterwe know that 2500 REVV is approximately US$43 (as of 12 July 2022), now we can get to work.
