# Initial Mining (5%)

## **Initial Mining (Completed & Paid Out!)**

#### **Discord Mining System**

For the first **month**, $BONE can ONLY be mined using the `/mine` command in our Discord server by anyone, earning 2**0 Points per day**.\
\
Using `/mine` earns you 5 points per mine with a 6 hour cooldown earning 20 per day!

#### **Paid Mining Perks (Inital Mint ONLY!)**

Users can **boost** their mining rewards by paying CRO for higher earn rates:

* **10CRO** → x1.1 rate → 22 **points/day**
* **20 CRO** → x1.25 rate → 25 **points/day**
* **40 CRO** → x1.6 rate → 32 **points/day**

#### **Exclusive Mining Bonuses (Inital Mint ONLY!)**

* **CroHounds NFT Holders** earn an **extra +5%** on any mining rate.
* **Whitelist Your Community**: For **50 CRO**, you can **whitelist your community**, allowing all members to earn an extra **+5%** mining bonus & get a sponsor message added to mining messages.

#### **Mining Rewards / Calculations (Important)**

There will be 50k $BONE set aside for initial mining rewards which will be rewarded to all users who took part in the initial mining.\
\
Calculation:\
`(50,000 $BONE / TOTAL POINTS) x YOUR POINTS`

TBK : 1000 Points mined.\
Mayhem: 750 Points mined.\
Samy: 250 Points mined.\
\
Total Points (TP) = 2k\
\
TBK:\
`(50,000 $BONE / 2000 TP) x 1000 = 25,000 $BONE Mined`\
Mayhem:\
`(50,000 $BONE / 2000 TP) x 750 = 18,750 $BONE Mined`\
Samy:\
`(50,000 $BONE / 2000 TP) x 250 = 6,250 $BONE Mined`

#### **Vesting Schedule to Prevent Dumping**

To **maintain price stability**, mined tokens will be **vested over 4 months**, meaning:

* **12,500 $BONE** will be airdropped per month for **4 months**
* This gradual release prevents large sell-offs and ensures sustainable growth.
