Discussion thread: "Grant for UTILITY of GRAPE NFT"

[Avidlearner]

I am for mint with grape.
I just casually thought of this idea now. What if the membership NFT is separate from the pfp?
I already explained how I see the membership NFT working here

Grape Membership NFT

Drawing inspiration from Orca whirlpools: It would be nice if each NFT represents the amount of grape staked/locked when it was issued and can be burnt to receive the exact amount of grape locked back. Just that in the case of grape the redemption or claiming process will last over a vesting period. The NFT is transferable and all, but if burnt elsewhere other than the staking contract, the locked grape is irrecoverable forever. More grape can be staked, although in this case maybe the old NFT…

So membership NFT serve as whitelist for pfp → whitelist = free mint

And thereafter public get to mint for a small fee which will be donated back to the DAO treasury or used for any other purpose that benefits grape and the holders/community. (this is me stealing from serum surfers approach)
