# COG Token

The COG token is the currency needed to upgrade your NFTs and access special COG token lobbies & rooms. Players can win this currency daily by earning bolts won by engaging with any game on the platform.

COG token is not necessary to access games on our platform; they give access to different lobbies for players to engage within the games. Players can play selected games without a COG token on the Circle of Games app.
