$KINS
Type On-chain token (Solana)
Gathered at Marketplace (sell Gold for $KINS), Solana DEX/CEX purchase
Skill None
Used for Game access, Marketplace listings, paid Spinner Wheel

$KINS is the native Solana token tied to Kintara's on-chain economy. A wallet holding at least 1,000 $KINS is required to log into the game, and $KINS is used across the marketplace and the paid Spinner Wheel.

Acquiring $KINS

$KINS is not earned directly through gathering or combat. Players obtain it in two main ways:

  • Buying externally — $KINS is tradeable on Solana DEXs (e.g. PumpSwap) and is listed on centralized exchanges including Blofin and MEXC. It launched with no presale and no airdrop.
  • Selling in-game gold — players can list Gold for sale on the Marketplace, priced in $KINS. The buyer pays from a connected Solana wallet, and the seller receives $KINS in return. This is the only way to earn $KINS purely through gameplay.

Gold and $KINS can be exchanged in both directions through Marketplace listings — gold for $KINS, or $KINS for gold.

Uses in Kintara

$KINS has a few in-game roles:

Use Requirement Notes
Game access Hold at least 1,000 $KINS A minimum 1,000 $KINS balance is required to log into the game at all.
Marketplace listings Any amount Buy and sell Gold and items priced in $KINS.
Paid Spinner Wheel spins ~$5 worth per spin Optional paid spins on the Mainland plaza; 50% of the $KINS spent is burned.
Wishing Well burn Optional Burn $KINS alongside a charity donation for 2.5× raffle entries.
Note: $KINS holdings no longer affect Gold earning. The Traveling Merchant lottery — which previously scaled ticket entries with $KINS held — has ended following the merchant's death. Gold is now earned through mob and boss kills; see Gold.

Token Sinks

$KINS has three separate mechanics that remove it from circulating supply or a player's wallet:

Mechanic Split Notes
Marketplace $KINS sale 95% seller · 2.5% treasury · 2.5% burned The seller still receives 95%. The old 5% treasury fee is now split — half to treasury, half permanently burned. Gold marketplace sales are unaffected and remain fee-free (100% to seller).
Paid spinner wheel spin (Mainland) 50% burned, 50% to treasury Cost is roughly $5 worth of $KINS at the live price per spin.
Wishing Well $KINS burn 100% burned Optional — burn $KINS alongside a charity donation for 2.5× raffle entries. Fully burned, nothing to treasury.

Marketplace $KINS sales, paid spins, and Wishing Well donations all now contribute to the permanent $KINS burn, slowly shrinking supply over time.

Tokenomics

Figures below are pulled from public exchange/aggregator data, not an official Kintara dev statement — treat as approximate.

  • Max supply: 1,000,000,000 $KINS (1 billion)
  • Circulating supply: roughly 990–997 million as of mid-2026, trending down slowly due to spinner burns
  • Publicly cited burn total: approximately 5,085,570 $KINS burned (~0.5% of supply)

Risks

As with any small-cap game token, players should be aware:

  • The Kintara development team is not publicly identified, and there is no public smart contract audit.
  • $KINS price has been highly volatile since launch.
  • Treasury governance and fund usage are not publicly detailed.
