Collectors are upgradable NFTs and are the only way to accumulate earned ONI tokens. They have a limited storage capacity which is reset upon claim. There is a maximum of 50 Collectors slots per player.

Collectors can be managed from the [Website](https://app.tacocrypto.io/collectors) or the [Taco Universe App.](https://onelink.to/tacouniverse)

{% hint style="info" %}
**Collectors accumulate ONI, the strategic token of the Taco Universe***.*

ONI is required for:

* Complete Acryptia Season Rewards
* Automators to execute works
* Access Taco Universe Battle Pass
* Brigade Quest & Arena
  {% endhint %}

### ONI Production

ONI is generated through the ONI Genesis Pool every day:

* 80% of the daily generated ONI is distributed to the Genesis Pool holders based on their share

{% hint style="success" %}
Players need to stake TACO/SHING to generated ONI from the Genesis Pool. Every day, 1% of the staked tokens are burned. Players can also unstake TACO and SHING after 72 hours since their last stake.
{% endhint %}

Staking is fixed with a 1 TACO : 10,000 SHING ratio.&#x20;

The amount of daily ONI generated depends on the overall community staking quantity, based on these thresholds:

| Daily Generated ONI | Staked TACO | Staked SHING  |
| ------------------- | ----------- | ------------- |
| 0.1                 | 1           | 10,000        |

* 20% of the daily generated ONI is distributed to Venue owners. This share is distributed between Venue Owners with this formula:

{% hint style="success" %}
Owner Venue Levels / All Venue Levels \* 0.2 \* Daily ONI

Example:

All Venue Levels = 10,000

Your Venue Leves = 1,000

You will receive 10% of the ONI distributed to Veneu Owners.
{% endhint %}

Wether ONI is earned through the Genesis pool or the Venue Owner, it is stored inside Collectors before claiming.

Collectors have to be activated in order to accumulate ONI. This action can be done on the [Website](https://app.tacocrypto.io/collectors) or the [Taco Universe App.](https://onelink.to/tacouniverse)

ONI stored inside Collectors can be claimed anytime: there is no claiming cooldown.

There are currently 50 Collectors slots available for each user.

{% hint style="warning" %}
ONI are distributed every day. Once Collectors reach their max capacity they are not be able to store ONI and exceeding ONI will be burned. Claiming ONI is the only way to empty Collectors.
{% endhint %}

### Upgrading Collectors

The rarer the Collector is, the greater storage capacity it has. In order to upgrade Collectors, players will need Ta-cores.

Collectors can be upgraded inside [Venue Labs.](https://whitepaper.tacostudios.io/gaming/venues/venue-services-and-perks#level-1150-venue-labs)
