# Off-Chain Assets

Off-Chain Assets are in general consumable items in the game that hold less economic value and is thus more suitable to be hosted purely on the server. Players can still have an enjoyable gaming experience with only off-chain assets. They include:

### GOLD

The in-game currency that runs only on the Server Layer. Can be earned easier than RUBY, the other in-game currency that is a ERC20 token. GOLD is generally used to purchase other Off-Chain Assets.

### Shards

Shards are consumed to upgrade, or, "Limit Break", Weapons and Armors in the game.

Shards may become an On-Chain Asset in the future and serve as the second token in CryptoKnights.

### Artifacts

Artifacts are blind boxes that can be opened to receive items.

### Banners

Banners are cosmetic items that decorate your name when a fight starts.

### Wallpapers

Wallpapers can be used as the background scenery of the player's home page.

### Chat Windows

Chat Windows are used to change the shape and color of the chat box when a player speaks.

### Unminted On-Chain Assets

Items that haven't been minted and withdrawn onto the player's wallet as ERC tokens.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://whitepaper.cryptoknights.games/game-assets/off-chain-assets.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
