# Getting a SeaCrypt NFT

### <mark style="color:purple;">New Mint</mark>

SeaCrypt fish NFTs can be **minted** on our [website](https://www.seacrypt.co).&#x20;

Steps for minting:

1. Connect to web3 wallet (<mark style="color:blue;">Ethereum network</mark>). \
   There are two options: <mark style="color:blue;">**Metamask**</mark> and <mark style="color:blue;">**WalletConnect**</mark>
2. Insert your <mark style="color:blue;">**birthmark**</mark> phrases. F\
   or more details refer to \<birthmark segment>\
   ![](/files/tr9xfrJDHFO8W1kNtMHy)
3. Click the <mark style="color:blue;">**mint**</mark> button. (<mark style="color:blue;">**Mint price**</mark> is stated here)\
   There will be a message popup to sign the transaction (no cost is incurred at this step)
4. Confirm your <mark style="color:blue;">**transaction and gas fee**</mark> and the minting process will start
5. The minting process can take up to <mark style="color:blue;">**a couple of minutes**</mark>.\
   This is because SeaCrypt NFT generation has some backend and middleware processes that generate the 3D animated model using <mark style="color:blue;">**proprietary algorithm.**</mark>\
   It is different from other NFT projects that mint random NFTs from a pool of pre-generated assets.

### <mark style="color:purple;">Secondary Market</mark>

You can purchase minted SeaCrypt fishes on <mark style="color:blue;">**secondary market**</mark> from [OpenSea](https://opensea.io/collection/seacrypt-fish).

### <mark style="color:purple;">Breeding</mark>

In the near future, when the <mark style="color:blue;">**breeding feature**</mark> is launched you can breed a new SeaCrypt fish from two parent fishes. More details will be announced.
