# Brain - MINTING

Brain-MINTING is when you use 2 Brains to breed a new Brain. For reference, the 2 Brains will be called Parents. Both Parents need to be in your possession (not under rent or sell)to begin a mint.

First of all, choose 1 Brain and click the Mint tab, then choose the other Brain to "breed" with, and click Mint to proceed. After that ,you will instantly receive a blind box that can be opened immediately which contains your new Brain.

An Brain can mint up to 7 times.The higher mint count a Brain has, the more TOKEN it will cost to mint.The cost of Brain-Minting for each Parent is calculated separately and added together as the final Minting cost.

After the mint is finished,each parent will have a 48-hour cooldown.
