Learning to navigate the Gala Music ecosystem can be incredibly rewarding, especially when you know how to leverage the Loyalty Pool system to get early access to NFT releases. Here’s a guide on how to secure your spot in the early access line and maximize your benefits as a Gala Music superfan.
Understanding Early Access Timing
Early Access for Gala Music NFTs begin one hour before the open public sale. If a public sale is scheduled for 1 pm PT, the early access sale opens at 12 pm PT. This one-hour head start can be crucial, especially for the most sought-after NFT releases, which are limited to just 100 copies.
Unless otherwise noted, every Gala Music NFT release includes a one hour early access sale period for Loyalty Pool contributors.
Loyalty Pools: Your Key to Early Access
Early sale access is granted through the Loyalty Pool system. By locking your $MUSIC tokens in support of your favorite artists, you unlock exclusive benefits, including early access to the NFT sale. This system is all about showing your loyalty without losing control of your assets—you’re not spending your $MUSIC; you’re simply holding it in specific support of an artist.
To get started, visit the Loyalty Pool Hub. Here, you can choose which artists to support by contributing to their Loyalty Pools.
How Contributions Work
Contributing to an artist’s Loyalty Pool is different from tipping. While tipping involves transferring $MUSIC to the artist, contributing to a Loyalty Pool allows you to keep your $MUSIC.
Unlocking Loyalty Pool Levels
There are currently two levels in the Loyalty Pool system that offer benefits:
Level 2: By holding at least 500 $MUSIC in an artist’s pool, you gain exclusive Discord access, early track sale access, and a 5% discount on NFT tracks from that artist.
Level 3: With at least 1000 $MUSIC held, you unlock all Level 2 benefits plus additional perks that are at the artist’s discretion.
Planning Ahead for Early Access
To ensure early access, you need to hold your $MUSIC in an artist’s Loyalty Pool at least 20 hours before the NFT release. The system takes a daily snapshot at 5 pm PT to determine who has access for the next 24 hours. Planning ahead is crucial, especially if you’re eyeing a high-demand release.
Flexibility and Strategic Contributions
One of the best features of the Loyalty Pools is the flexibility they offer. You can add or remove your support for artists at any time. This means if you only have 1,000 $MUSIC, you can strategically reallocate it between different artists’ pools, gaining early access and discounts on various track releases. A little planning goes a long way in ensuring you never miss out on your favorite releases.
Maximize Your Benefits
By consistently supporting your favorite artists through Loyalty Pools, you not only get early access to certain sales, but also enjoy discounts and exclusive community interactions. Whether you’re looking to support up-and-coming artists or secure rare NFTs, the Loyalty Pool system is your gateway to becoming a Gala Music superfan.
Remember, the more strategic you are with your $MUSIC, the more benefits you can unlock across the platform. Keep an eye on upcoming tracks, plan your Loyalty Pool contributions accordingly and enjoy the perks of being ahead of the curve in the Gala Music ecosystem.
It’s been a full year since the groundbreaking album Voir Dire by rapper Earl Sweatshirt and legendary producer The Alchemist made waves on Gala Music. Released in August 2023 as an innovative collection of 11 unique NFT tracks, Voir Dire offered fans a new way to experience and own music. This collaboration not only pushed the boundaries of how albums could be released but also brought new opportunities for fans to support their favorite artists directly through blockchain technology.
While most of the tracks quickly sold out, a few gems remain available. These tracks—”27 Braids,” “My Brother, The Wind,” “All The Small Things,” and “Geb”—are still up for grabs, only while supplies last.

Driven by our new “tapper” genre of Telegram mini app web3 games, Gala is ready to unveil the economy plans for $TREZ, a token dedicated to ecosystem interaction and sharing.
Gala is creating one of the largest developer-friendly web3 ecosystems in the world, powered by the speed, scalability and security of GalaChain, Gala’s L1 blockchain built for entertainment and ready for anything.
Gala was launched in 2019 with a focus on ownership-enabled gaming. Gala Games quickly rose as a web3 leader in entertainment, launching Gala Music and Gala Film. In 2024, GalaChain’s doors were opened to external developers with the release of a powerful GalaChain Creator self-service portal and a public-facing SDK.
Witnessing the recent success of Telegram’s mini app ecosystem and its ability to integrate The Open Network (TON Blockchain) for seamless web3 functions, Gala began creating Telegram mini app games in Q3 2024 as a solution for enhanced web2 user acquisition across its ecosystem. By leveraging a mobile messaging platform used by nearly a billion users worldwide, it became simpler than ever to share the empowerment of web3 with the world. Today, Telegram mini apps represent the most high-powered onboarding tools web3 has ever seen.
What is $TREZ
$TREZ is the official token created by Gala Games to enrich and incentivize its growing ecosystem of Telegram mini app “tapper” style games. With the initial publication of this litepaper, these games include Treasure Tapper and Music Coin, but this list is expected to expand in the future.
With its upcoming token generation event (TGE), $TREZ will be a fungible token initially minted on GalaChain, TON Blockchain or a combination of the two.
$TREZ will have a max supply of 100 billion tokens.
The majority of $TREZ will be allocated for distribution to users.
Getting $TREZ
$TREZ will be accumulated by accomplishing goals and tasks in Gala’s Telegram mini app “tapper” games – currently limited to Treasure Tapper and Music Coin.
While the exact details of $TREZ accumulation within the games are still in flux, we are now prepared to share more information about not only the token’s distribution, but the initial list of criteria that will determine how much $TREZ will be received by each user with each distribution.
Part 1: Seasonal Rewards
$TREZ will be released into circulation on a seasonal basis, and season length will likely vary. For each Distribution Season, a variable (TBA) portion of the total $TREZ supply will be emitted to users.
Everything from the initial launch of Treasure Tapper to the $TREZ TGE will be considered part of Season 1. The end of each Distribution Season will be marked by a $TREZ distribution, with exact quantities per user determined using a point system based on the following criteria.
Seasonal Distribution Rewards
Here are some criteria by which seasonal $TREZ distribution per user is determined:
In-game Coins Collected
Rewards per Hour
Number of Direct Referrals
Number of Secondary Referrals
Creation of Gala Account
Number of Challenges played
Gala Store Spend
Missions Plus
Future seasons could bring the opportunity to purchase mission upgrades that will reward the upgraded player with more distribution points toward the upcoming Seasonal Distribution.
In-App Purchases
In later seasons, users may get opportunities to spend $TREZ for in-app or Gala ecosystem purchases. This type of purchase would be factored into the Seasonal Distribution.
Part 2: Daily Rewards
In addition to the Seasonal Distribution, players will have opportunities to collect daily distributions of $TREZ based on in-game tasks and challenges. Allocations of daily distributed $TREZ will typically be determined by leaderboard placement, encouraging daily competition and interaction with Gala’s $TREZ associated apps.
The majority of $TREZ distribution will be included in the Seasonal rewards.
Daily distribution leaderboards may include (but are not limited to):
In-game Coins accumulated
Daily tasks completed
Daily matches and rematches
Daily referrals
Daily play time (app open)
Powering the Future of Web3 Entertainment
As we prepare to introduce $TREZ into the Gala ecosystem, we’re setting the stage for a new wave of innovation and engagement. The tokenomics of $TREZ are designed to enhance the user experience within our ecosystem, particularly in our Telegram mini-app games.
By offering both seasonal and daily rewards, $TREZ not only incentivizes interaction but also fosters a more vibrant and active community. This litepaper is just the beginning, with more exciting developments on the horizon as we continue to expand the utility of $TREZ and integrate it further into the broader Gala ecosystem. Stay tuned for more updates, and get ready to tap into the future of web3 gaming with $TREZ!
