Economy explains the main currencies, shops, marketplace systems, and trade loops in Kintara. Kintara uses Gold as the main in-game soft currency, while $KINS is the on-chain token used for marketplace and token-based systems. Club membership is paid separately in SOL.

Currency Overview

Currency Type Main use Notes
Gold In-game soft currency Shops, property, casino, pets, furniture, cosmetics, and mounts Earned through merchant trades, casino winnings, wagers, dice games, and admin grants.
$KINS On-chain token Marketplace token listings, paid spinner, and merchant entry limits Holding more $KINS raises the number of Personal Merchant lottery entries — up to 10 per visit.
SOL Native Solana currency Kintara Club membership Membership is paid in SOL, not Gold or $KINS.

Gold Sources

Source What it gives Notes
Traveling Merchant Gold Trades material bundles for Gold via Global or Personal Merchant systems.
Merchant restock campaign Gold availability Community resource campaign that restocks merchant Gold.
Casino Gold Gold can be won or lost through casino games.
Wagers and dice games Gold Player-facing risk/reward economy systems.

Casino

The Casino on the Mainland is Kintara's dedicated gambling area. Inside the building, players can play roulette and blackjack for Gold. The outdoor Spinner Wheel on the plaza offers a free spin every 12 hours plus an optional paid spin. See Casino for table rules, payouts, and spinner rewards.

Merchant Bundle

Global Merchant Bundle

The Global Merchant is a shared pool capped at 1,500 Gold per visit, funded by every player's material donations. The merchant arrives twice per day at random times. Unlike the Personal Merchant, the Global bundle also requires Metal.

Material Amount per 1 Gold
Wood 2,600
Stone 1,500
Coal 800
Cooked Fish Meat 40
Metal 30
Gold 1 reward

Global Merchant donations earn contribution points, which determine how much Gold you can claim when the pool opens. See Merchant Exchange Calculator and Merchant Gold Calculator for full details.

Personal Merchant Bundle

Personal Gold now works as a Lottery Entry System. Players submit a material bundle to receive lottery ticket entries based on their $KINS holdings. Players have a 12-hour window to enter after each merchant visit.

Once the entry period ends, winners are selected at random. Players return to the Merchant to check results and claim Gold.

  • Winning Entries: Gold is claimable from winning entries.
  • Non-Winning Entries: Materials are returned to the player.
  • Resource Tax: A 5% tax is applied on all entered materials and burned — does not go to treasury.
Material Amount per Ticket
Wood 2,600
Stone 1,500
Coal 800
Cooked Fish Meat 40
Gold 1 reward per winning entry

Merchant Daily Cap

Global Merchant Cap

The Global Merchant pool is capped at 1,500 Gold per visit (3,000 Gold total across both daily visits). Players who contribute more materials earn higher contribution points, which determine how much Gold they can claim from the shared pool when the merchant returns. Maximum claim is 5 Gold per player per visit.

Personal Merchant Entry Limits

Entry limits are based on $KINS holdings. The maximum is 10 entries per visit for players holding 10,000 or more $KINS. With two daily visits, players can enter up to 20 times per day at the highest tier.

$KINS Held Entries per visit (1 entry = 1 Gold if won) Max per day (2 visits)
Less than 1,000 0 0
1,000 to 4,999 2 4
