# Minting ### Minting Minting is an event in which a new **garage** (a box containing NFT) is produced by parenting two NFTs owned by the user (minting consumes tokens). By opening the garage, the user gains NFT (called children). ### Maximum number of Minting There is a limit to the number of times an NFT can be minted with a parent NFT. ### Minting Cost Minting costs tokens; the more tokens are required to parent an NFT with more minting, the more tokens are required. The detailed minting cost calculation logic is currently under development (it may be changed at any time to balance token supply and demand). ### Rarity The rarity of the garage obtained from minting is affected by the rarity of the parent NFT. The rarity of NFT obtained from a garage is also affected by the rarity of the garage. ### Type The type of NFT obtained from the garage is affected by the type of the parent NFT. ### Parameters and Sockets The parameters and Sockets of the NFT obtained from the garage are randomly determined according to the rarity of the NFT. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
