Buildings & Chains

Buildings are NFTs that generate Yield Points (YP). Each building belongs to one of four chains, each offering unique bonuses.

Chain Overview

There are four building chains in FuelCraft. Each chain has its own progression path from Tier 1 through Tier 4, with increasing YP and unique chain-specific bonuses.

Industrial Chain

Industrial buildings reduce crafting time. The more industrial buildings you own, the faster your crafts complete.

Knowledge buildings improve your upgrade roll outcomes, giving you a better chance at higher YP when upgrading items.

Residential Chain

Residential buildings provide balanced YP with no specialized bonus. They are the most straightforward path to increasing your yield share.
