### **General Intro**

* **Governance token** among AOD ecosystem
* Limited supply
* Supply management and community sentiment (backed by the income from Age of Dino)&#x20;

* Get Cosmetics NFT to decorate & upgrade your Land
* Turn your in-game dinosaurs into dinosaur NFTs (not Dinosty)

### Governance

Holders of $AOD possess governance rights across the entire AOD ecosystem, encompassing both broader ecosystem development and individual games. In Age of Dino, this governance takes place through the in-game VIP system, while other games may implement alternative methods such as DAO or councils.\
The reasoning behind this design is that in-game decision-making affects both the economic aspect and the gaming experience. As such, it is important to consider both $AOD holdings and "proof-of-play" elements, which are represented in the VIP system, together.
