## A.O.T.E. First-of-Its-Kind Evolving NFT’s

The crypto space is changing and evolving rapidly. This project is designed to change and evolve with it.

Each NFT is a character in the A.O.T.E. comic/manga book series. There are 10 different characters in total.

Each NFT character has a level indicator on the front of the image that specifies what level your NFT is on. All NFT’s start at level 0.

Every few months, a new level NFT of your character will be available to you as a holder for free. However, to level up your NFT character, your current level NFT must be BURNED.

Each new level NFT will be created by a different professional artist in our community, giving our NFT’s the ability to change their visual style every few months while still keeping the original NFT character.

As you evolve your NFT to higher levels, you’ll receive more utility and new perks. There are 11 levels in total, from Level 0 to Level 10. The Level 0 NFT’s were created by artist and founder Cory Evans.

Whitelist for all 10 NFT drops will be exclusively available to artists and content creators
