At the heart of ALTAR, the **Sanctuaries** stand as bastions of security and growth. Unlike ordinary holding mechanisms, these Sanctuaries are engineered to shield your assets from the scheduled debase occurring every epoch.
Out of the three distinct Sanctuaries available on our app, two will be immediately accessible upon ALTAR's launch. By choosing to deposit your $ALTAR into these Sanctuaries, not only do you secure protection from the debase, but you also position yourself to earn the rewards that come with active participation.
Within ALTAR, your rewards are shaped by your strategic choices and understanding of the game. The Sanctuaries are more than just vaults; they're where your strategy plays out in real-time. Every user will experience different outcomes. Timing is crucial. Balance your risks and refine your approach to maximize your rewards.
Here, your success is directly tied to how well you play the game.
