# Deflation v3

### Motivation

Previous Deflation Events were successful, and we received many requests to do a third one. We want to remind you of the advantages you can get from deflating your houses:

* less supply and potentially higher value of NEARton NFTs
* expanded capacity to stake more partners NFTs
* higher staking rate for NEARton NFTs

### How it works

You are able to merge 2 or 3 houses into one. As a result, you will combine all staking rates and capacity in one house + get a solid bonus, the rest of the houses will be burned (you will be able to choose which house to preserve).

Please note that **if you already have a MAX merged house, you CAN’T merge it further.**

The cost of Deflation is 150 $NEXP for ONE merge (so you’ll pay 300 $NEXP for the MAX merged VIP house). 

### Bonuses

**House Capacity (number of partners NFTs that you can stake in this house)**

Default capacity per house is **5**\
By merging 2 houses your final **capacity** will be **12**\
By merging 3 housed your final **capacity** will be **20**

#### **Staking Rate (SR)**

You can find current house SR on Paras (Rarity Score) or on the house page at <https://nearton.org/>.\
\
By merging 2 houses you will have (SR1 + SR2) \* **1.3**\
By merging 3 houses you will have (SR12 + SR3) \* **1.3**\
\
*Example***:**\
Host house = CD #94, SR = 91.5\
1st house to merge = Sub #671, SR = 24.31\
2nd house to merge = Sub #796, SR = 17.5\
\
(91.5 + 24.31) \* 1.3 = 150.55\
(150.55 + 17.5) \* 1.3 = 218.47\
Final SR = 218.47\
You have CD #94, Sub #671 and Sub #796 were burned.<br>

**Notes**

You will be able to chose a **host** house (1) and house for merging (2). After merging the second one will be burned (it will no longer be on Paras and on blockchain itself). **IMPORTANT -  house for merging (2) should be CLEAN SUBURB (hasn't been merged with other houses yet).**\
Combinations can be:\
CD + Sub\
Sub + Sub\
CD + Sub + Sub \
Sub + Sub + Sub
