# Golden Acorns

### How to receive?

Golden acorns are airdropped to owners of Expedition 8 and 9 - receive 1 Golden Acorn for each NFT owned.

### What does it do?

Golden Acorns can be used as a discount (in the form of a rebate) on future Expeditions (drops). This can only be used to rebate minted purchases (not secondary).

The initial value of the Golden Acorn is $15. For each new Expedition's snapshot - this value will increase by $15 AND the NFT will also evolve.

| $15 Golden Acorn                 | $30 Golden Acorn                 |
