Kamigotchi can only be minted from the in-game Vending Machine by spending a **Gacha Ticket**. **Gacha Tickets** are auctioned in a [Perpetual Gradual Dutch Auction](/gameplay/econ/kami-distribution/tickets-auction-mechanisms.md) for **MUSU**.
At the time of minting, the **Gacha Ticket** is burned and the player receives a Kami from the Vending Machine pool. At any given time, the Vending Machine will have \~2,222 Kamigotchi in its pool. When a new Kami is minted, the player will receive one of the pool Kami and a newly created Kami will enter the pool:
This will continue until the maximum supply of 22,222 Kami is reached, at which point no new Kami will be created.
## Gacha Ticket Distribution
20,000 total **Gacha Tickets** will be distributed as follows:
* 2000 airdropped to Passport holders (one per Passport)
* 3000 available through an initial mint:
* Whitelist mint for Testnet participants with >200 [reputation](/gameplay/quests-and-factions.md) (1 per wallet)
* Public mint (5 per wallet)
17222 **Gacha Tickets** are being auctioned in-game for **MUSU** at the Vending Machine on an ongoing basis, which we expect to take approximately 18 months.
