### CBT2 Free Mint

During CBT2, players can collect the required materials through gameplay and use them to mint a Hero Badge.

A total of **200 Hero Badges** are allocated to this gameplay-based free mint.

Players do not need to pay the NFT sale price for this allocation. The required materials are consumed when the mint is completed.

The material requirements, minting period, wallet limits, and eligibility rules will be published as part of the CBT2 rules.

### Post-Season Sale

The remaining **200 Hero Badges** will be offered for sale after the season.

* **Sale Supply:** 200
* **Sale Price:** 120 USDT each

The official sale schedule, supported network, purchase limits, and sale process will be announced before the sale begins.

### Utility

Hero Badge holders receive three core benefits.

#### Unlock the Next Season’s Paid Hero

A Hero Badge unlocks access to the paid hero introduced in the following season.

Activation and seasonal access rules will be published before that season begins.

#### Increased Seasonal Reward Share

Hero Badge holders receive an increased share of the seasonal prize pool distribution.

The exact increase, eligibility requirements, snapshot timing, and applicable limits follow the rules of the relevant season.

#### TGE Airdrop Eligibility

Hero Badge holders are eligible for a future TGE airdrop.

The snapshot date, allocation method, claim requirements, and final airdrop amount will be announced as part of the official TGE rules.

Eligibility does not guarantee a fixed token amount or value.

### 24-Hour Price Support

When official Hero Badge trading opens, the Rune Hero team will establish a buy wall at the **120 USDT sale price**.

This price-support mechanism will remain active for the first **24 hours** after trading opens and is intended to keep the market price from falling below the official sale price during that period.

After the 24-hour protection period ends, the market price will be determined by supply and demand.

The supported marketplace, start time, and execution rules will be announced before trading opens.
