# Core Uses of Tools

## Trading

Tools can be listed and traded in internal marketplaces or on global NFT platforms such as *OpenSea*.

***

## Rental

Tools can be rented through in-game smart contracts in exchange for *Acces* tokens, generating passive income for the owner.

***

## Delegation

Temporarily assign a tool to another player without transferring ownership—for example, to use it in a specific mission or group event.

***

## DAO Lending

Deposit tools into DAO vaults, allowing clan members to use them. Profits are automatically distributed through smart contracts.

***

## Gifting

Send a tool as a gift to another player without monetary compensation, through a secure and trusted exchange system that strengthens community bonds.

***

## Upgrade

Tools can be enhanced using *Blacxes* or rare materials to unlock hidden abilities or boost their effectiveness in missions.

***

## Fusion

Two or more tools can be fused to create a hybrid tool with higher rarity and new functionalities, potentially resulting in unique outcomes.
