❓Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. Who can mint a Companion?
Anyone who holds either:
A supported Berachain NFT (e.g. Jungle Party, YEETS, SteadyTeddys, BULLAS), or
An Alterim SBT, which can be minted for free at sbt.alterim.ai
You do not need to own a traditional NFT — anyone can begin by minting an SBT.
2. Is it free to mint a Companion?
Yes. During the Public Beta, Companion minting is completely free. However, only a one-time interaction quota is granted per user. To continue interacting after that, you’ll need to recharge quota starting mid-June.
3. I missed the Closed Beta (CBT). What am I missing?
CBT was an invite-only early access phase that ended on June 6th, 2025. Users who minted during CBT receive:
Access to the Alterim Genesis NFT
1.5x or 2x point farming multipliers
Daily auto-recharging interaction quota
These benefits are not available to Public Beta users.
4. What is the Alterim Genesis NFT?
The Alterim Genesis NFT is a limited-edition collectible given to CBT users who minted a Companion. It represents early participation and may provide future benefits within the ecosystem, including exclusive access, governance perks, or future whitelist eligibility.
5. How do I interact with my Companion?
After minting your Companion, you can:
Chat in various AI game modes
Generate memes using the Meme Generator
Earn $ATRM Points through daily engagement
6. What are $ATRM Points?
$ATRM Points are off-chain points earned through Companion interactions. They will be:
Used to determine eligibility for future $ATRM airdrops
Convertible to $ATRM tokens during TGE (Token Generation Event) Details on conversion will be announced closer to TGE.
7. What is the quota recharge system?
Public Beta users receive a one-time free interaction quota. Once used, additional interactions will require manual quota recharge, coming mid-June. Recharge may require BERA or $ATRM.
CBT users continue to receive daily auto-recharging quotas.
8. Can I trade or transfer my Companion?
Yes. Companions are ERC-721 NFTs on Berachain, and can be traded on supported NFT marketplaces. Note: SBTs are non-transferable and only used as a base identity for minting.
