To be eligible, you must stake ALPACA in the governance vault for any 4 consecutive weeks during the Grazing Range period.

The NFT tier you receive will be based on the amount of your xALPACA balance during that entire period. (Since xALPACA balance naturally decreases over time, make sure to watch yours)

  • Gold Tier: held at least 50,000 xALPACA

About Highstreet

Highstreet is a decentralized Metaverse built on an MMORPG game where brands, both traditional and crypto, can use our Merchant Portal to seamlessly integrate and build their presence in Highstreet World. From day one, Highstreet strives for interoperability and already has participation from major thought leaders, including exchanges like Binance, chains like Avalanche, and funds like Republic and Animoca.

The game starts off like most popular MMOs with a tutorial island where new players, called Freshmints in Highstreet World, can learn all the necessary skills to survive in the Metaverse. As players crossover from the real world, they’ll quickly find themselves making acquaintances of a native race of giant yellow ducks. These FOMO Ducks are an explorer’s best friends. They act as shopkeepers and quest guides, especially through the first couple of regions near and on the continent of Solera.

Highstreet World employs a two token system, $HIGH is used to buy limited edition products on their marketplace, as well as both Commercial and Residential real estate in Highstreet World. $HIGH is also needed to participate in special events within the metaverse from concerts to PFP Club events. A second token, $STREET, also known as Street Cred in Highstreet World, will be deployed in-game shortly after the launch of their Open Alpha. $STREET will be used for day-to-day in-game purchases, from food and drink items (HP & MP) to in-game physical Gear. While $HIGH is capped at 100M supply and will have a deflationary mechanism, $STREET is inflationary with no cap and will scale as more and more players enter the Metaverse.
