### The Whale Club Membership NFT
The Whale Club aims to focus on who are deeply committed to the Casper Network, Whale Club, and their ecosystem. The membership NFT will be available for free minting to any CSPR/WHALE holder meeting the following criteria:
1. More than or equal 1.000.000 CSPR
2. More than or equal 1.000.000 WHALE
The NFT won't be tradable or transferable, and your membership won't be a constant. We'll take a snapshot of your balance each week, and if you no longer meet the required holding amount, your membership will be temporarily deactivated.
The NFT is a key to access our club with many benefits:
1. **Unique NFT Membership Rewards:** Show off your membership with awesome, whale-themed NFTs that only club members can get. These cool digital assets are our way of saying thank you and letting you know how special you are in the community. Plus, you can earn WHALE token or getting more CSPR when you hold the NFTs and stake with our Casper validator node or participate activities in the club
2. **Early Access & Bonuses:** Get in early on private sales and bonus opportunities for Casper-related projects or tokens. This advantage lets you explore and maybe invest in new ventures before they go public.
3. **Exclusive Updates:** Be the first to know what's going on in the Casper project with access to news and updates that only you can see. You'll always be ahead of the game with the latest info on Casper's progress, insights, and innovations.
4. **Special Community Events & AMAs:** Join exclusive community events and AMA sessions with Casper developers and team members. This direct interaction gives you insights, learning opportunities, and the chance to chat with the people behind Casper's innovation.
Customize your NFT
Upon minting, every whale will receive a foundational WHALE NFT. This basic NFT will consist of slots to personalize with items like headgear, gloves, boots, and more. Users can purchase these equipment pieces from the marketplace using CSPR/WHALE tokens. This feature adds uniqueness to your NFT and allows you to showcase your value to the entire community.
