$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, the paid Spinner Wheel, and — as of a recent update — a full Holder Benefits tier system.
Holder Benefits
$KINS holder benefits are officially live. The more $KINS you hold, the more you unlock across Kintara — progression boosts, extra storage, daily rewards, and exclusive areas. Holder tiers scale with your $KINS balance, and every tier includes the benefits of every tier below it. Your tier is reflected in-game — your name changes color to match.
Holder Tiers & XP Boosts
| Tier | Threshold | XP Boost |
|---|---|---|
| White | 1K $KINS | Base tier |
| Blue | 10K $KINS | +1% XP |
| Green | 100K $KINS | +2% XP |
| Gold | 1M $KINS | +3% XP |
| Purple | 5M $KINS | +4% XP |
Additional Holder Perks
Beyond the tier bonuses above, hitting specific $KINS thresholds unlocks further perks, independent of the color tiers:
| Threshold | Perk |
|---|---|
| 25K $KINS | Double XP from daily quests |
| 50K $KINS | Extra inventory row + saved outfit |
| 75K $KINS | Extra bank slot + extra daily Spinner Wheel spin |
| 100K $KINS | Increased Marketplace listings |

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. Also the White tier threshold for Holder Benefits. |
| Marketplace listings | Any amount | Buy and sell Gold and items priced in $KINS. Listing capacity increases at 100K $KINS held. |
| Paid Spinner Wheel spins | ~$5 worth per spin | Optional paid spins on the Mainland plaza; 50% of the $KINS spent is burned. An extra daily spin unlocks at 75K $KINS held. |
| Wishing Well burn | Optional | Burn $KINS alongside a charity donation for 2.5× raffle entries. |
| Holder Benefits tiers | 1K–5M $KINS held | Passive XP boosts and account perks that scale with balance — see above. |
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.
