# Minting Privilege Staking

TerraMater introduces a staking mechanism for Natura Token, determining a stakeholder’s eligibility for participating in upcoming NFT collections. The amount of Natura staked directly influences a stakeholder's level of access to these new projects. Functioning similarly to a pre-emption system, this strategy rewards those holding a higher amount of Natura Token by granting them priority access to future collections along with additional benefits.

Additionally, within TerraMater, Natura serves as a legitimate form of payment for purchasing NFTs available on the platform.

This feature is currently under development and not yet operational. For details on its launch and other related information, consult the roadmap.
