Metaf Global utilises Smart Contracts to record racehorses ownership and will be tracked via the use of the Ethereum blockchain and ZT ERC 721 non-fungible tokens. All racehorse data (bloodline, genotype, gender, colour, number of offsprings and race statistics) will be stored in the smart contract. Given that all racehorses are tokens that live within the blockchain, they can be bought or sold digitally, with a guarantee of ownership. In other words, you are the sole owner of a digital racehorse. Head over to Metaf Global Privacy to understand what information is collected. **Can I purchase a racehorse using my credit card?** Yes, you can buy a racehorse on OpenSea using a credit card. Follow their instructions as this option may not apply to all regions. Note: if you want to enter paid races or breed your racehorse on the platform, you will need cryptocurrency. **How long does it take my horse to become an Alpha horse(racing)?** The initial horse you buy is just a Mare or a Colt( not given birth) , only after 5 days of purchasing can horse be able to breed. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.metaf.global/racing/general-faq.md?ask=&goal= ``` `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.
