PERKS & REWARDS

Players, HODLers, and collectors can earn loot, NFTs, and ETH via their PonyJacks through raffles and the Arena. For example, the first beta event, the Tournament of Origins for the first 50 Ponyjacks born/minted (automatically eligible and entered), have a chance to duel their way to the top and earn over 1 ETH in prizes. Over 5 ETH in prizes is planned over the first few months, depending on mint price and demand. And remember that only goes to a few hundred holders/stables.

Plus, NOW ANNOUNCING, the very first unique 1 of 1 powerful "Artifact" - The Origins Armor, won by the champion of the Tourney of Origins, giving any horse you 'equip' it to + 3 Life in future events (for the season). Or, it could probably net you some extra Eth it you wanted to cash it in too.

Holders, collectors, and players have chances to earn Horseshoes simply by owning Ponyjacks, and by earning glory in the Arena. These Horseshoes can later be redeemed for prizes. It is rumored some of the unrevealed 60 Ponyjacks are reserved for those who prove themselves worthy and are worth their weight in horseshoes.

Diamond Horseshoes - Earned by unlocking NEW Ponyjack breeds through mints and auction. Good incentive to grab those Mystery Boxes early and hard.

Star Horseshoes - Earned by achieving victory in the Arena. Keeps track of glory and prestige for your stable compared to the rest of the world.
Lucky Horseshoes - Weekly/Monthly Raffles dished out to holders of a lucky Jacktype. All holders split the pot of horseshoes, so grab a unique or leg and try to win the whole bag, or grab a few commons and diversify!

(On the Roadmap)
When Entry based Arena events are here, there will be a King Jacktype for each of the 8 battle locations: Mountain, Jungle, Volcano, Cloud Arena, Waterfall, Haunted Forest, Olympus, Colosseum... Whichever Jacktype is the current reigning champion of the last tournament at that given location will be known as the King of the Kingdom, receiving a % cut of entry fee of any arena events that take place at that location. (Like owning a track/stadium). Further, it could be the case that all Ponyjacks of the same Jacktype will recieve a cut of that cut. So if a Stonejack (common 21x) was to win a tournament at the Mountain location, he would be known as the King of the Mountain Kingdom until unseated, getting a cut of entry fees from battles on that location. The other 20 Stonejacks (or as many as were actively minted) would also get a cut. Each of the 8 locations can have an active King at the same time. This incetivizes winning tourneys and also getting the same Jacktypes as those who are likely to win.

Breeding is a framework being carefully developed, so I won't say too much about it. However, if we proceed with the feature it will take into the breeding equation parents' traits. Gen 0 Ponyjacks have significantly higher traits than any Ponyjacks that would come after, if any, (breeding may be the only way to make new Ponyjacks). Mainly, Gen 0 Ponyjacks have a much higher base Life Trait of 10, than any subsequent Ponyjacks, so would be invaluable breeding assets for that reason alone, plus any other solid stat boosts they have especially for uniques, legendaries, and super rares.
