# Innovative Payment Options

**Angel Dust and Other Tokens are used for payment to mint and buy NFTs**

The AD token is the fist token ever used as payment for minting NFTs on a launchpad. As we grow we will continue to roll out as many additional token partnerships as possible for payment on both our Launchpad and Marketplace.<br>

**Token Projects Releasing NFTs Should Never Mint in BNB or ETH. Why?**\
\
The NFTs launched by token communities typically mint their NFTs using ETH or BNB and it almost always negatively impacts the chart because it encourages selling and converting profits from your Token into the blockchain's coin to pay for minting out your NFTs. Additionally all NFTs released by projects will have those mint funds sent directly to developers with no guarantee that those funds will ever be used to help grow the project or the chart. Your community will feel more safe minting with your Token.\
\
This is why we encourage all token projects releasing NFTs to use our Launchpad and integrate their token as the primary payment method for the mint. If people want the NFTs it will force people to buy your token which increases volume, increases taxes received for development from new buys and increases the chart. We also suggest burning all or some of the supply you receive from the mint just like we will do from the fees we receive in your token from the payments.\
