Steel Chips - Resource (Off Chain)

Steel Chips are a natural resource that can be found on Planets that host the play-to-earn arenas. When a player’s in battle, their purchased Ship will mine Steel Chips. Steel Chips are used to buy Ship Blueprints. To mint a new Ship, players must own a Blueprint and spend the relevant amount of COSM. Each Blueprint can be swapped (along with COSM) for one Ship. The type and rarity of a ship a user will receive from a Blueprint will not be revealed until the mint has occurred.

This process allows the number of Ships to grow with the number of players while limiting the rate of new Ships entering the Cosmic Champs ecosystem. This helps prevent an oversupply of Ships and maintains the value of existing Ships for NFT owners.
