The Ultramodern Speed Syndicate
Your NFT earns its upgrades by being traded.
Every TUSS NFT keeps its own record of how many times it has genuinely changed hands. Cross a threshold and the artwork itself advances — and whoever is holding it at that moment claims the reward. There is nothing to stake, nothing to lock, and nothing to sign up for. The token does the work.

First upgrade
Rollerblades
On its twelfth counted sale the artwork is redrawn on wheels — same character, same design language, same hand. Your original is not destroyed: the token ID, its full history and its provenance stay intact, and the original art stays permanently archived alongside the new.

Second upgrade
Moped
Seven sales later the ride changes again. Same treatment: the artwork advances, the token stays the token, and every previous version stays on the record as part of what it has been through.

Third upgrade — undisclosed
Withheld until earned
What sits at twenty-five has not been announced, and will not be until a token reaches it. What we will say: it is the final rung, it is not another vehicle on the same pattern, and it is designed with you — three to five attributes chosen together and applied to your token alone.

Progress belongs to the token, not to your wallet.
Buy an NFT that has already sold eleven times and you are one sale from rollerblades — you inherit everything it has earned. Sell a token and you hand that history to the next owner along with the art. Eligibility lands on whoever holds it at the moment the threshold is crossed, which means the twelfth sale rewards the buyer.
Counts toward an upgrade
- A sale on the TUSS marketplace
- A settled TUSS auction with a winning bid
- Any such sale at $4.99 or more
- One sale per token per day
Does not count
- Sending a token between your own wallets
- Gifts and transfers with no payment
- Sales below $4.99
- Sales on outside marketplaces
- A second sale of the same token the same day
Why the restrictions exist
Without them, anyone could pass a token between two of their own wallets for the cost of gas and manufacture all three upgrades in an afternoon. That would make the artwork meaningless — every NFT maxed out, nothing earned. The thresholds only mean something if reaching them takes real trading.
Claiming: three steps, one transaction.
- 1
Your token page tells you
When a token you hold crosses a threshold, a claim button appears on its page. Nothing expires — an unclaimed upgrade waits for you.
- 2
You accept
One signature from the wallet holding the token. The 75 pViTok arrives in that same transaction, paid to you at that moment.
- 3
The artwork advances
Your NFT's image and traits update shortly afterward, everywhere it is displayed. For the third upgrade we reach out to design the custom attributes with you.
Claim before you sell
The reward goes to whoever accepts, at the moment they accept. If you sell an eligible token before claiming, the upgrade and the pViTok go with it to the new owner. An unclaimed upgrade transfers with the token.
The fine print
The $4.99 minimum and the one-per-day limit are set on-chain and can be adjusted by the collection owner, but not removed — the contract enforces a hard floor on both, so the protections cannot be tuned out of existence.
Upgrades never change who owns a token, never move it, and never require you to send it anywhere. Claiming is the only action, and only the wallet holding the token can take it.
