# What are the available in-game tokens and their use cases?

BlocTale features three main types of tokens, each with their specific use cases, and a DAO governance token:

* ***BlocGold (GLD):***\
  GLD is an ERC20 token and serves as the primary in-game currency. Players use GLD to purchase items, services, and upgrades within the game. They can earn GLD by participating in activities such as defeating enemies, completing quests, and engaging in other game events.
* ***ERC1155 NFT Items:***\
  These tokens represent unique in-game items such as weapons, armor, and other collectibles. Each item has its distinct attributes, and players can use them to improve their characters' abilities and performance in the game. Players can acquire NFT items by defeating enemies, purchasing from NPC shops or other players, and through special sale events.
* ***ERC721 BlocTale Characters:***\
  Player characters are tokenized as ERC721 tokens, which include attributes like level, job level, profession, and honor. Players can trade, sell, or transfer these tokens, providing a dynamic and valuable market for characters within the game.
* ***BlocTale DAO (BLOC):***\
  BLOC is the governance token for the BlocTale Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO). Token holders can participate in the decision-making process for the game's future development, influencing various aspects of the game, such as new features, balancing, and in-game economy.

These tokens work together to create an engaging and rewarding in-game economy, offering players various opportunities to earn, trade, and invest in the game's ecosystem.
