# ONI

**The** [**ONI**](https://wax.bloks.io/tokens/ONI-wax-t.taco) **Token is the strategic token of the Taco Universe.**&#x20;

ONI is the key to obtaining rewards on Acryptia and other games. It can be obtained from [Taco Swap](https://swap.tacocrypto.io/swap), generated by Venues or [staking TACO/SHING](https://app.tacocrypto.io/collectors). Generated ONI has to be stored before claiming it by using Collectors.

**How to obtain ONI:**

* The [ONI](/tokenomics/oni.md) Genesis Pool
* Generated passively by [Venues](/nft-collection/collection/venue.md)

**ONI** can only be obtained by using [Collectors](broken://pages/9aFANOmHyH8s40jbNLSS). They are upgradable NFTs which accumulate ONI tokens with a limited storage capacity which is reset upon claim.&#x20;

{% hint style="warning" %}
If a player would receive ONI tokens but does not hold a staked Collector or the Collector is at full capacity, the ONI would be lost.
{% endhint %}

**ONI has multiple purposes:**

* Access [Acryptia Season Rewards](/gaming/acryptia.md)
* Activate Automators
* Staking in [M.E.A.L.](/defi/taco-swap/m.e.a.l.-rewards.md) pools
* Access Taco Universe Season Pass
