The 8Hours Foundation NTI, which will be the first chance for the public to obtain EHrT tokens, will start on July 1st.
In this article, I will give you an overview of everything you need to know to take part in the NTI.
PlayTable – the first product from the 8Hours Foundation
Step 1: Perform KYC
Go to the whitelist page to perform KYC. This is required for all participants to take part in the NTI.
- Make sure you have our Vechain wallet address available. When you hold a Node you have to enter the details here to get additional benefits based on your Node type and tier.
- 8Hours takes regulation very seriously, this is why proof of address is required.
Note: Participants from the United States are not allowed to take part in the 8Hours NTI.
Step 2: Invite to the Monkey Match Game
After you have done your KYC you will get an email confirming if you qualify to take part in the NTI. In the email, you will also receive an invite for the monkey match game.
The monkey match game is a fun game that allows you to gain additional benefits during the 8Hours NTI.
You can try it out ahead of the NTI by going to https://playmonkeymatch.com.
How many tiles you can open in the game depends on your Vechain Node status:
- Mjolnir X gets 4 extra clicks, 12 clicks in total.
- Thunder X gets 3 extra clicks, 11 clicks in total.
- Strength X gets 2 extra clicks, 10 clicks in total.
- VeThor X gets 1 extra click, 9 clicks in total.

Some of the benefits you can win in the game:
- Additional VET allocation to be able to buy more EHrT.
- Free EHrT tokens
- A discount on or a completely free PlayTable.
Step 3: Take part in the NTI
The NTI is divided into 4 rounds. Each round has a maximum allocation of 47 million VET that can be converted to EHrT.
How many EHrT you will get for your VET, depends on the Round you take part in + if you are a Node owner or not.
