Imagine having a special key that unlocks doors to secret rooms on the Internet. Web3 is increasingly taking the approach that token ownership becomes the key to closed capabilities.

Have a token = have access.

🔴 Creating exclusivity
This gives project creators the ability to give token holders exclusive access to content, events, and merchandise.

🔴 Strengthening the community 
This encourages them to come together and develop strong bonds. 

🔴 Rewarding holders
May include exclusive merchandise, access to special festivals and events, or other unique benefits
