The wait is over. TURF plots are now live on Hive-Engine - the first batch of land NFTs in Syndicate Protocol, capped at 2,500 plots total.
Purchase a STDEED voucher for $5 USD in HIVE at syndicate-protocol.com and redeem it immediately for your TURF NFT. Rarity is revealed at redemption — every buyer has the same shot at Empire.
Syndicate Protocol is a browser-based turn-based RPG built on the Hive blockchain. The core game is already live — players recruit crews across five classes and five rarity tiers, run operations across eight unlockable city zones, compete in ELO-ranked arena seasons, and collect permanent stat-boosting collectible sets.
Every meaningful asset is on-chain. Hive Keychain powers all transactions.
A TURF plot is a Hive-Engine NFT that represents a piece of territory in the Syndicate Protocol world. Each plot:
There are only 2,500 plots with a finite number of plot rarities.
| Rarity | Chance | Supply | Attributes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hustle | 70% | 1,750 | 1 |
| Racket | 25% | 625 | 2 |
| Empire | 5% | 125 | 3 |
Empire plots are the rarest — only 125 will ever exist.
Every TURF plot generates some combination of the five resources that power the entire Syndicate Protocol economy:
| Tier | Resource | Role | Yield per Hour |
|---|---|---|---|
| S | Contraband | Rarest — highest crafting value, required at every equipment upgrade level | 0.063 – 0.417 |
| A | Intel | Strategic crafting input | 0.125 – 0.750 |
| A | Influence | Leadership and political capital | 0.125 – 0.750 |
| B | Hardware | Physical equipment components | 0.250 – 1.000 |
| C | Steel | Raw material — base for all crafting | 0.500 – 2.000 |
Yield ranges reflect Hustle → Empire rarity. Empire plots with Contraband attributes sit at the top of every yield table — the rarest resource on the rarest plots.
Resources accumulate from the moment you activate your plot. The earlier you start, the larger your stockpile when blueprints and equipment forging go live.
Activation periods are 12, 24, or 72 hours. Yield freezes when the window expires — it is never lost, always claimable at your convenience.
TURF is not a standalone feature. It is the foundation of everything coming next.
Here is how the economy connects:
Every system feeds the next. Players who own land early accumulate resources before blueprints are even live. When crafting unlocks, they will have stockpiles that newer players will spend weeks building. That head start compounds at every subsequent phase.
Alongside TURF going live, SYNX — the Syndicate Exchange token — is now live on Hive-Engine.
SYNX is the primary upgrade and utility token of Syndicate Protocol. It has a hard cap of 50,000,000 tokens and enters circulation through gameplay only — earned through farming missions, never pre-mined or airdropped.
Key numbers:
| Allocation | SYNX | % | Account |
|---|---|---|---|
| Missions & Operations | 40,000,000 | 80% | syndicate.game |
| Future Game Modes | 7,500,000 | 15% | syndicate.game |
| Weekly Leaderboard | 1,500,000 | 3% | synx.payouts |
| Contests & Giveaways | 500,000 | 1% | synx.contests |
| Treasury | 500,000 | 1% | synx.treasury |
| Total Hard Cap | 50,000,000 | 100% |
Every allocation is held in a dedicated Hive account — publicly auditable by anyone. The 40,000,000 Missions & Operations allocation is never minted upfront. SYNX enters circulation only as players earn it through farming missions.
The treasury holds 1% — less than the weekly leaderboard reserve. Player rewards take priority.
The 50,000,000 hard cap is the maximum that can ever exist — not the amount that will circulate. Multiple burn mechanics work continuously to keep actual circulating supply far below the ceiling:
Mission burn — Once farming missions go live, each plot will have a farming mission attached to each plot. The SYNX is only minted for successful mission and any mission that fails or any plot owner does not play the mission for the day gets burnt. It is removed from the supply ceiling forever. More details will be published on this.
Equipment upgrade burn — Upgrading equipment from L1 to L40 costs 10,000 SYNX per piece, burned permanently at each level. Players with large crews pursuing full gear upgrades will burn tens of thousands of SYNX over time.
Blueprint burn — Crafting blueprints costs 200 / 800 / 2,500 SYNX depending on tier. Each blueprint is one-time use and consumed on craft — the SYNX is gone.
The Foundry burn — Unlocking and upgrading The Foundry building costs up to 3,000 SYNX cumulatively per account. And this is something that comes next week as the utility of both TURF resources and SYNX you will start earning as leaderboard rewards.

TURF going live is Phase 1. The roadmap has four more phases, each adding a meaningful economic layer on top of the last.
Phase 2 — Blueprints + Equipment
Resources become spendable. Craft blueprints from land resources and forge unique equipment NFTs with randomly rolled stats. Each piece is different — stat quality drives secondary market value. 60 blueprint types across 5 classes, 4 slots, and 3 tiers.
Phase 3 — Equipment Upgrades
Equipment upgrades go live. Burn SYNX and all five land resources to level gear from L1 to L40. Early levels are deliberately cheap — costs scale sharply at L31+. The grind is real but the ceiling is worth it.
Phase 4 — Farming Mode
One mission attempt per turf plot per day. Send three equipped crews, charge an energy core with shards and collectibles, and run the mission. Successful runs yield SYNX. Plot count and rarity determine your daily earning ceiling. This is where land ownership translates directly into daily income.
Phase 5 — Open Economy
Blueprint trading, equipment resale, and a fully player-driven marketplace. Additional SYNX sinks will be introduced. Arena rewards will be overhauled for a larger player base.
The full roadmap and all token economics are documented in the whitepaper: whitepaper.syndicate-protocol.com

Want to understand the full economy before committing?
Syndicate Protocol is a solo indie project built on Hive because Hive makes it possible to build a game where assets are genuinely owned by players — not rented from a central server.
TURF going live is the first major economic milestone. The core game has been running for months. Players have been competing in the arena, running operations, collecting sets, and waiting for land to arrive.
Today it arrives.
Before anything else — a thank you to the closed beta players who showed up before there was land, before there was SYNX, and before most of this existed. You tested, you broke things, you gave feedback, and you kept playing anyway.
As a token of appreciation, every closed beta player is receiving 1 STDEED — redeemable for a TURF plot to their support.
