Voltage Institute NFT Q&A
IMPORTANT NOTICE — NOT OPEN FOR PURCHASE. Voltage Institute NFTs are intended to be structured as digital securities in a future Regulation A Tier 2 offering. No securities are currently being sold. No money, cryptocurrency, NFT purchase payment, reservation payment, deposit, or other consideration is being solicited or accepted at this time. No offer to buy Voltage Institute NFTs can be accepted, and no part of the purchase price can be received unless and until the applicable offering statement is qualified and the offering is conducted through proper offering materials and authorized channels. Any indication of interest is non-binding and involves no obligation or commitment of any kind. Final NFT pricing, supply, rights, benefits, eligibility rules, distribution terms, transfer restrictions, and investor requirements may change and will be governed only by the final qualified offering documents.

Voltage 1.7 Founder Journey
Proposed future participation conceptWhat is Voltage 1.7?
Voltage 1.7 is the proposed Founder Journey participation model connected to Voltage Institute NFTs. It is designed to recognize eligible long-term supporters who stay with the mission through a defined 17-month qualification period.
17-Month Qualification Rule
- A holder must hold a qualifying Voltage Institute NFT for 17 continuous months.
- Qualification may be verified through an official Voltage 17 Qualification Snapshot.
- Verification may include blockchain records, wallet checks, identity review, and required documents.
- A screenshot from the 17th month may be used as supporting proof, but not the only official record.
Founder Journey Registry
- Once qualified, a holder may be added to the Founder Journey Registry.
- That earned Founder Journey status may remain with the qualified participant even if they later sell the NFT.
- The buyer of a previously qualified NFT receives standard NFT benefits, but does not automatically receive the seller’s Voltage 1.7 eligibility.
- Each qualifying NFT token ID may create only one Founder Participation Pool eligibility unit.
What is the proposed 1.7% Founder Participation Pool?
Voltage Institute may reserve a proposed 1.7% Founder Participation Pool for eligible Voltage 1.7 Founder Journey participants if a future qualifying event occurs, such as an IPO, direct listing, acquisition, merger, or other approved liquidity event.
Is the 1.7% pool guaranteed?
No. Voltage 1.7 is a future participation concept only. It is not a guarantee of stock, IPO shares, dividends, revenue, profits, voting rights, token appreciation, or investment returns. Any future participation would be subject to legal structure, board approval, securities laws, tax requirements, eligibility rules, investor agreements, and final documentation.
What happens if fewer NFTs qualify?
If legally approved and formally documented, the proposed 1.7% pool may be shared only among qualified Voltage 1.7 participants. If fewer Voltage Institute NFTs qualify, the qualified participants may receive a larger pro-rata share of the same proposed pool.
What happens if I sell my NFT after qualifying?
Once a holder completes the 17-month qualification period and is accepted into the Founder Journey Registry, their earned Founder Journey status may remain with them even if they later sell or transfer the NFT. The new buyer receives the NFT’s standard utility, access, recognition, and ecosystem benefits, but does not automatically receive the seller’s earned Voltage 1.7 eligibility.
Voltage 1.7 Vision
Voltage 1.7 is meant to honor the people who stayed with the journey, supported the mission, and helped build the foundation — while keeping the structure responsible, compliance-forward, and subject to proper legal approval.
Full Q&A
What is a Voltage Institute NFT?
A Voltage Institute NFT is intended to be a Regulation A Tier 2 digital security that may provide eligible holders with access to participation rights within the Voltage ecosystem. Any benefits, revenue participation eligibility, staking rights, or ecosystem access remain subject to final qualified offering documents, KYC/AML, wallet verification, staking requirements, and Company approval.
What do I get when I buy an NFT?
If the offering is qualified and a verified participant purchases and stakes a Voltage Institute NFT through approved channels, the holder may become eligible for the following benefits, subject to the final qualified offering documents:
- Revenue participation eligibility
- VoltageVerse land parcel rights
- Premium VV token bonus access (24-month staking)
- Voltage 1.7 (17-month hold)
Do I have to stake my NFT?
Yes. Staking is required to activate benefits. Holding the NFT alone does not qualify you for participation.
What’s the difference between 12-month and 24-month staking?
- 12 months → base tier (profit-sharing eligibility)
- 24 months → premium tier (profit-sharing eligibility, token bonuses, early access, and discounted opportunities)
What is revenue participation?
Eligible NFT holders may receive a share of approved net revenue generated by Voltage Institute operations. All participation is subject to eligibility, compliance, and actual business performance.
How often are distributions expected?
Distributions are planned on a quarterly basis, if eligible net revenue exists.
What currency are distributions paid in?
Distributions are currently planned to be paid in USDC, though other approved methods may be used.
What are VoltageVerse land parcel benefits?
NFT holders receive access to land claim opportunities inside VoltageVerse, the project’s digital ecosystem. These parcels represent digital real estate and are separate from real-world property.
What is the VV token bonus?
The VV token bonus is a premium incentive tied to 24-month staking. Eligible holders may receive:
- VV token rewards
- Early access before public presale
- Discounted VV purchase opportunities
Do I automatically get benefits when I buy an NFT?
No. Just because someone buys or receives an NFT does not automatically activate its benefits. Each holder must complete onboarding, verification, and staking to become eligible.
What do I need to do to become eligible?
- Complete KYC/AML verification
- Verify your wallet
- Stake your NFT
- Meet all system requirements
What happens if I sell or transfer my NFT?
If your NFT is sold or transferred, staking resets, eligibility may be removed, and the new holder must complete the full onboarding process. Benefits do not automatically transfer.
Can I exit my stake early?
Yes. You are not locked forever. An early exit option is available if you need flexibility.
Is there a penalty for early unstaking?
Yes. A 10% early-exit penalty may apply if you unstake before your term is complete.
Why is there an early exit penalty?
- Protect long-term holders
- Maintain system stability
- Support the Treasury and ecosystem growth
Do NFT holders own the school or land?
No. NFT holders do not own real-world assets such as school buildings, land, or company property. They receive participation rights only.
Who is allowed to purchase NFTs?
NFT purchases are limited to approved jurisdictions, verified participants, and users who complete KYC/AML. Final eligibility is determined by the Company.
Are profits guaranteed?
No. There are no guaranteed returns. All participation depends on business performance, eligibility, and execution of the project.
What is Voltage 1.7?
Voltage 1.7 is our Founder Journey plan for early Voltage Institute supporters. It is designed to recognize supporters who stay with the mission for 17 continuous months, hold a qualifying Voltage Institute NFT, complete verification, and are confirmed through the official Voltage 17 Qualification Snapshot. The long-term purpose is to help prepare Voltage Institute for bigger future opportunities, including a possible IPO, direct listing, acquisition, or other approved company event if the company reaches that stage. Eligible verified participants may be considered for a proposed 1.7% total Founder Participation Pool, but only if the structure is legally approved, board-approved, documented, and compliant. Voltage 1.7 does not guarantee stock, IPO shares, dividends, revenue, profits, voting rights, token appreciation, or investment returns.
Is Voltage 1.7 about a future IPO?
Yes — IPO readiness is one of the main long-term reasons behind Voltage 1.7. The goal is to organize the company, the records, the holder verification process, and the Founder Journey structure now, so that if Voltage Institute ever reaches a future IPO, direct listing, acquisition, or other major company event, the company is better prepared. However, a future IPO is not guaranteed. Voltage 1.7 does not promise public shares, stock, profits, dividends, or a financial return. It is a preparation and eligibility framework, not an automatic investment right.
