What are NFTs?
A unique digital asset recorded on a blockchain. In GON, the NFT represents ownership of a specific fashion piece before it's claimed as a physical garment.
What is a blockchain?
A shared digital ledger that records ownership transparently. No single company controls it.
What is a wallet?
An app that holds your NFTs and crypto. Think of it as the account that proves what you own.
What does it mean to burn an NFT?
Burning permanently retires the NFT and triggers fulfillment of the physical garment tied to it. Once burned, it can't be resold.
What is Avalanche?
Avalanche is the blockchain network GON uses to record ownership. It's fast and low-cost, so minting and burning stay simple and affordable.
Do I need crypto to buy GON?
You'll need a wallet to hold the NFT before burning it. Details on the simplest way to do this are shared closer to the drop.
Can I resell my GON NFT?
Yes. If you don't want to claim the physical piece, you can resell the NFT on the open market. The next holder can burn it to claim the garment instead.
What is Alte?
Alte is a Nigerian alternative youth culture movement spanning music, style, and identity. GON draws from that energy while building its own interpretation.
Who is GON?
GON is a solo-founded Nigerian fashion brand for students, made by a student, merging real clothing with digital ownership.
Where is GON based?
GON is based in Nigeria, testing here first before expanding to a global audience.
