Announcing the first Mines of Dalarnia Land Sale!

5 min readDec 23, 2021

We are pleased to report that we have finalized the details and dates for the very first Mining Plot Sale. The portal will interact with Binance Smart Chain blockchain. The only officially supported wallet for the land sale is Metamask. Please prepare by familiarizing yourself with Metamask.

Important details at a glance:

The land sale portal will open and begin accepting deposits on December 27th, 2021 at 12 PM CET
The land sale portal will be accessible via our website https://www.minesofdalarnia.com/ or directly at https://landsale.minesofdalarnia.com/
Users must deposit 100 DAR (BEP20) tokens to register their address and reach the minimum entry requirement to receive tickets in the land sale lottery
Additional tickets to the lottery can be earned by several methods, which are listed in the next section
The snapshot period begins on January 10th, 2022 and ends on January 16th, 2022
At the conclusion of the snapshot period, addresses are selected in a lottery format. An address’ chances of being selected are determined by the number of tickets it earned during the snapshot period
After the lottery is complete, the selected addresses will purchase (1) mining plot in exchange for the 100 DAR they used to register. Additional deposited assets will then be withdrawable by the user. Addresses who were not selected will also be able to reclaim their 100 DAR registration fee

Note: While staking additional assets increases the chances of being selected in the lottery, each address can only purchase a maximum of one mining plot

How to earn tickets

The 100 DAR registration deposit earns you a baseline number of tickets per day. So in theory, you could win the lottery simply by registering
Staking additional DAR (BEP20) tokens directly in the land sale portal
Staking DAR-WBNB LP tokens from PancakeSwap in the land sale portal
Staking CHR tokens through the Chromia website staking portal. For some additional details on this, read the appropriate section below
For this event, Mining Ape NFTs will not have an effect on tickets generated. However, Mining Apes will be incorporated into several future promotions!

How lottery ticket amounts are calculated

Depositing 100 DAR tokens will automatically generate 100 tickets per day for the user.

Beyond this, staking additional DAR and/or CHR generates additional tickets per day. For each 1 DAR and/or 5 CHR deposited, players will get one additional ticket per day.

LP tokens will be value adjusted and weighted at the same rate as tokens.

CHR Staking through Chromia’s website

Chroma (CHR) is the native token of the upcoming Chromia blockchain
CHR tokens exist in both ERC20 and BEP20 format and can be acquired on several major exchanges (Binance, KuCoin, FTX, etc), or purchased on PancakeSwap
You must stake using the same address you used to register for the land sale for staked CHR tokens to earn lottery tickets
Users who stake CHR through the portal will also earn 25% APR paid in CHR
Tokens are subject to a 14 day waiting period for withdrawal. Users still receive credit for staking during the 14 day waiting period, but not after it has elapsed

Tell me more about the Mining Plots!

This land sale is selling ownership of Mining Plots on the first planet in the Mines of Dalarnia game world, Terra Prime.

Every planet in the Mines of Dalarnia game world is sectioned into a grid. Each section represents a mining plot, which is represented by an NFT. Players must explore mining plots in order to acquire resources and progress in the game. When they wish to mine a plot they do not own, they must pay mining fees to the owner of the land.

As an owner of a mining plot, you earn revenue when other players pay to mine your land. In addition, you can sell the ownership of your land (and by extension, the NFT representing it) on the open market.

Good luck in the land sale!
