MINT is a crypto token on the HIVE blockchain representing fractional ownership in a diversified, professionally managed fund of collectible sports cards. Token holders share upside from appreciation of the underlying portfolio and can receive periodic revenue distributions (from sales, loans, license deals, or monetization) or benefit from buybacks.
As the sports-card industry continues to evolve and professionalize — attracting institutional collectors, grading companies, and global investors alike — it was only a matter of time before these tangible, passion-driven assets met the efficiency and transparency of blockchain.
This project introduces a new era of Real-World Asset (RWA) tokenization, where graded, authenticated sports cards are transformed into fractional digital ownership through the MINT token. In essence, each token represents a share in a professionally managed portfolio of high-end, Hall-of-Fame-caliber collectibles — allowing investors and collectors to participate in the value growth of the underlying cards without the need for individual acquisition or management.
By blending the security of traditional collectibles with the accessibility and liquidity of crypto, MINT creates a modern “index fund” of legendary sports history — one that empowers both seasoned collectors and forward-thinking investors to benefit from this rapidly expanding market.

Tokenomics
Initial Mint — 1,000,000 Tokens
75% of the initial mint of tokens will be sold on the hive-engine market. You may purchase directly from hive-engine or tribaldex after launch here: https://tribaldex.com/trade/MINT.
If you don’t have Hive/Swap.Hive or a Hive Wallet yet I’ve put together some instructions:
https://hivedrip.com/purchase/
You may also send approved PSA/BGS graded TCG/SportsCards to the MINT vault in exchange for tokens at current tranche pricing.
10% of tokens are reserved for the owners of the project which will be distributed evenly over 36 months.
5% of tokens are reserved for marketing/advertising/IT expenses.
10% of the tokens are reserved for LP’s and/or Staking rewards or other types of future rewards deemed essential. We plan for staking rewards to be paid out over 36 months with a larger APY delivered the first year. The staking rewards will start sometime within a month from launch.
Tranche Pricing
Initial Treasury Value — $60k
The initial treasury, valued around $60,000, has been contributed by the two founding team members. It consists of a curated mix of graded football, basketball, and baseball cards — primarily featuring Hall of Fame players and future inductees.
Treasury Selections
Each card within the MINT portfolio is chosen through a meticulous, data-driven process designed to balance rarity, prestige, and investment potential. Our team evaluates population reports (favoring lower-pop examples), player status and legacy (with an emphasis on Hall of Famers and future inductees), and the historical significance of both the card and the set it originates from. Autograph quality, rookie cards, eye appeal, and overall market liquidity are also key components in the selection model. Together, these factors create a diversified index of iconic assets — curated to offer both long-term stability and the highest potential for appreciation in value over time.
Dynamic Tranche Pricing
In an effort to mitigate token price fluctuations due to changes in HIVE prices, we’re dynamically pricing our tranches based on current HIVE price in U.S. dollars. What this means is that we will periodically reprice the tranches to align with the value in USD.
Launch
Once the token launches, funds will be collected and used to purchase more cards that will be vaulted along with any OTC card exchanges we get. We will also be holding back some Hive in order to buy back tokens when pricing is below our NAV (net asset value).
Staking Rewards
The plan is to start payout of staking rewards within a month of launch date. Rewards will be daily. There will be a tranche discount starting on launch day with the largest discount during the pre-sale period with each additional tranche increasing in price. Future tranches and staking rewards will be decided during 5th tranche of sale and top holders will be able to help with decision making. The initial staking rewards will be approximately 10% APY.
Liquidity Pool — We will be opening a liquidity pool soon after launch. Rewards TBD.
