# Collecting

## Why collect an NFT?

By collecting an NFT you take ownership of the underlying asset. If you find a rare NFT (or just an NFT you like), you might want to acquire it and keep it in your wallet.

## How can I collect NFTs?

To collect NFTs you need NFT Indexes from the collection you're interested in or $BNB. Just follow the steps below and ignore step 4 if you already got your NFTi or if you're buying directly with $BNB.

Liquid Monsters is used as an example below

1. Visit the [***Collections page***](https://liquidcollectibles.io/collections)
2. Connect your wallet
3. Choose the Liquid Monsters collection
4. Click "Buy $LIMOi" (That's how Liquid Monsters NFTi are called).
5. Once you got your $LIMOi tokens click "Buy selected/Buy random" (depends on whether you selected some NFTs or not).
6. Confirm, wait, and that's it!

If you're interested in getting an NFT from a different collection the process is exactly the same, just be aware that each collection has its own NFTi so make sure you get the correct one or buy directly with $BNB.

Good luck with your NFT collection mission 🍀
