### **Topic Creation Criteria**

* Users with Tier 3 NFTs can participate in the topic creation process.&#x20;
* Topics need to be within 50 characters.&#x20;
* The ReadON team will select the initial topics, and a decentralized selection process will be implemented at a later stage.

### **Topic Creation Process**

* A Tier 3 NFT user makes a topic-creation proposal by pre-ordering a certain number of NFTs with a potential new topic.&#x20;
* Each user can pre-order up to 5 NFTs for a new topic.&#x20;
* The pre-order price will be an average price of Tier 1 NFTs on the market.&#x20;
* Once a topic has 50 NFT pre-orders, it is officially created. 50 NFTs will be minted and sent to users who participate in the pre-order.&#x20;
