KTTY World

New Tamers Mint Framework

Why We Introduced a New Mint Framework And What It Means for You

Hey Tamers, We have an important update to share one that reflects our evolving philosophy around access, sustainability, and community ownership in KTTY World.

This decision stems from recent shifts in the market, new infrastructure we’ve developed, and valuable feedback from our players and supporters. Over the past few weeks, we’ve evaluated the changing Web3 landscape while building key pillars like KTTY Labs and Ninefolds.

As a result, we introduced a revised minting framework focused on fairness, ecosystem alignment, and long-term sustainability. This blog will explain the rationale behind the changes, what you can expect, and how we’re honoring early supporters.

Why the Change?

When we originally structured the mint, it followed a standard Web3 model: upfront NFT sales would provide essential funding for gameplay features, art, and ongoing development. However, two meaningful developments led us to rethink this approach:

1. Market Behavior and User Barriers As blockchain conditions fluctuated, it became clear that the cost to participate had become inconsistent and increasingly inaccessible to new players. This created friction at entry and didn’t align with our goal of fostering an inclusive Tamer community.

2. Ecosystem Expansion With KTTY Labs (our Web3 dev platform) and Ninefolds (our NFT marketplace), we’ve unlocked alternative sources of ecosystem value. These systems now generate activity and capital flows independently of minting, reducing our reliance on NFT sales as a singular funding method. We also observed a larger shift in the Ronin ecosystem toward sustainability, community-driven mechanics, and reward backed ownership. It was time to realign.

What’s New?

We introduced a community-approved minting model with two goals:

Lower the barrier to entry for new Tamers
Preserve and enhance the benefits already earned by early supporters

This adjustment was submitted to a public vote, and the result was overwhelmingly supportive. It reflects how KTTY World functions: we are governed by insight, shaped by experience, and led by community choice.

What Does This Mean for Current Holders?

To thank those who supported us from the beginning, we’re introducing the following reward structures which will be put to a community vote when the mint is finished.

In-Game Reward Bonus: $PAW Token Distribution

We’re also offering early supporters additional utility through $PAW, our in-game currency. While different participants used different currencies to mint, we’ve decided to reward all verified early adopters.

Here’s how:

• Claimable through the in-game dashboard

• Secure, seamless claiming even for those who used multiple or temporary wallets

• Includes a “Gift a Friend” feature to reassign tokens to your primary profile

These tokens can be used for a variety of upcoming features including breeding, progression, customization, and more.

Remaining NFTs: What Happens Next?

Once the updated mint finishes, the airdrop allocation of NFTs will remain unclaimed.

We’re evaluating two potential distribution models which will be decided by you the community:

Option 1: Community Selection Airdrop

• A limited batch will be made available for community members to select from

• We’ll airdrop them directly, post-selection

• This would occur shortly after the mint ends

Option 2: Snapshot-Based Claim Window

• We’ll whitelist eligible wallets

• One month later, a dedicated mint window will open for these wallets to claim their remaining NFTs

• Offers flexibility and ensures that remaining NFTs land in the hands of real supporters

Why Early Matters

Some may ask whether this change dilutes the value of early participation. On the contrary, it reinforces it.

By joining early, you unlock:

• Direct access to $PAW utility tokens

• Exclusive airdrops unavailable through the new mint

• Opportunities for 1-of-1 or highly rare assets

• Priority access to KTTY World’s upcoming bonding and game progression systems

• Strengthening of token utility and rarity through burn mechanics

This is a long-term journey and early backers are essential to how we grow and reward the community.

In Closing

This new mint structure isn’t just a pricing decision it’s a philosophical one.

We’re showing that sustainable ecosystems don’t need to rely on one-time sales to thrive. With active revenue models from KTTY Labs, Ninefolds, and in-game mechanics, we’re building an economy where value comes from use, not speculation.

Minting Schedule Update

As part of our commitment to transparency and community led development, the KTTY World mint will be temporarily paused on Wednesday at 10:00 AM UTC. This pause will allow us to implement the updates approved through the recent community vote.

The mint will reopen exactly 24 hours later on Thursday at 10:00 AM UTC from the time of closure. These updates are designed to align our mint structure with community priorities and ensure a fair and balanced ecosystem moving forward.

If you were part of the first wave of minting and used $KTTY, you'll receive approximately $20 worth of in-game $PAW. Even though we didn’t promise $PAW for RON only minters, we’re showing love to our early community by also rewarding them with around $10 worth of $PAW. Your support helps build KTTY World and we’re just getting started.

We know some early supporters minted using burner wallets or Ledgers, so we’ve built a simple solution. On the in game dashboard, you’ll be able to connect any eligible wallet to claim your $PAW. If that wallet isn’t your main gaming wallet, no problem use the “Gift a Friend” feature to transfer your $PAW to your main in-game profile. This ensures every early supporter gets what they’ve earned, no matter how they minted.
