# Wild Packs (coming soon)

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Coming soon.** The WILD tab is already in the app, and this page will grow as launch approaches.
{% endhint %}

Wild is where packs live. Everywhere else on Tigermint you pull a card. In the Wild, you pull a **pack**: a sealed, tradable NFT with a card inside. Then you choose:

* **Rip it** to reveal the card inside, or
* **Sell it back** at the current pack price, unopened.

An unripped pack always has a buy-back price, so pulling one is never a dead end. You hold something liquid until the moment you decide to rip.

## Cards backed by real value

Every Wild collection launches with its own token, and every card that comes out of a pack holds a fixed amount of it, locked inside the card itself. The rarer the card, the bigger the stash:

* A **Common** holds a slice of what you paid for the pack.
* A **Rare** holds roughly a full pack's worth.
* An **Epic** holds multiples of a pack.
* A **Legendary** holds the value of many, many packs.

A ripped Legendary is the largest token reserve in the collection, and it gives you three options at any time:

* **Hold it** and stay exposed to the collection's growth.
* **Trade it** on any TON marketplace. Unlike a normal NFT, everyone can see exactly what's locked inside it, so it carries a visible floor price.
* **Redeem it**: burn the card and take the tokens. Every card has a built-in exit, whenever you want it.

## Why early cards grow

Pack prices ride a bonding curve: the earlier you pull, the cheaper the pack, and every pull pushes the price up.

Card backing is fixed in tokens, but the token's price rises with that curve. So every card already ripped gains value as the collection grows. The Legendary ripped on day one holds the same tokens, and those tokens are worth multiples more after the collection takes off.

It works honestly in both directions. The curve is the market: if packs are in demand, the price climbs; if they're not, sell-backs are always available at the going rate.

## Graduation: liquidity locked forever

When a collection raises enough, it graduates: its liquidity moves to a DEX pool and the keys are burned. From that moment the depth behind every card is permanent. It cannot be pulled, rugged, or migrated away. Packs keep minting, cards keep redeeming, and the collection's token becomes a freely traded currency with your cards as its rarest denominations.

## The vocabulary

| Word           | Means                                                                   |
| -------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Pull**       | Acquiring blind, everywhere on Tigermint. In the Wild, you pull a pack. |
| **Pack**       | A sealed, tradable NFT holding one card. Wild-only.                     |
| **Rip**        | Opening a pack to reveal the card inside. Wild-only.                    |
| **Sell back**  | Returning an unripped pack to the market at the current pack price.     |
| **Backing**    | The tokens locked inside a card. Rarer card, bigger backing.            |
| **Redeem**     | Burning a card to claim its backing in tokens.                          |
| **Graduation** | The moment a collection's liquidity moves to a DEX and locks forever.   |

## For creators

Wild creators upload a card set per rarity tier, tune the odds and backing within protocol-enforced fairness bounds (the math guarantees every collection can pay out what its cards promise), and earn on every trade in both directions: pulls, sell-backs, and redemptions, for the life of the collection. A Wild collection doesn't end at sell-out; it becomes an ongoing economy. Creation details, fees, and the full field walkthrough will land here when Wild opens.
