'''Mint''' — NFT minting. Almost any object in the "Globula" project can be turned into an [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-fungible_token NFT] for storage, transfer, or resale.

== Who Can Mint NFTs ==
To gain the ability to mint, fulfill two conditions:

1. Complete registration and connect a wallet. See the [[Registration in the Globula app|manual]].

2. Have an [[0-Connector]] as an NFT or as a regular object in your inventory.

== How to Turn an Item into an NFT ==
To turn an item into an NFT, go to the corresponding inventory section and long-press the selected item.

An information window will open, at the bottom of which there are two buttons: <code>Close</code> and <code>Mint</code>, as shown in the image.

Pressing <code>Mint</code> will bring up a confirmation window: "Do you want to move the item to the blockchain? Yes / No". If you select "Yes", your wallet will open, requesting confirmation and reminding you about the fee — approximately 0.02 TON.

After confirmation, transaction processing will begin. It may take up to 5 minutes.  
During this process, the specified fee will be deducted from your account, and the item will disappear from the game.

If the transaction is successful, the corresponding NFT will appear in your wallet, and in the inventory — the same item, but with a chain icon in the lower right corner. NFTs are always displayed at the bottom of the inventory.

If the transaction does not complete (for example, you forgot to confirm it), the item will return to your inventory within 5–10 minutes.

You can combine several items into one NFT if they are "stackable," meaning they can be grouped into a stack (e.g., [[Components|components]] or [[Blueprints|blueprints]]). This helps save on fees. However, this trick does not work with batteries, weapons, or tools.

'''Attention!''' NFTs, although displayed in the inventory, cannot be used within the app.  
To use an NFT, you need to convert it back into a regular item. This is covered in the next section.

== How to Convert an NFT Back into an Item ==

Converting an NFT into an item does not require a 0-Connector.

If there is an NFT in the wallet connected to the game, it is displayed at the bottom of the corresponding inventory section.

Tapping the item will open an information window with the buttons <code>Close</code> and <code>Transfer</code>.

Pressing <code>Transfer</code> will bring up a confirmation window: "Do you want to move the item to Globula? Yes / No". If you select "Yes", your wallet will open, requesting confirmation and reminding you about the fee — approximately 0.02 TON.

After confirmation, transaction processing will begin. It may take up to 5 minutes.  
During this process, the fee will be deducted from your account, and the NFT will disappear from your wallet. The item will appear in the inventory as a regular object.

For reliability, it is recommended to reload the app.
