# Reserve Bonds

### **How Reserve Bonds Work**

<figure><img src="/files/voA0AMgveoMZ9rIhe7O2" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Reserve Bonds offer users the opportunity to purchase tokens at a discount that vest over time, represented by an NFT, **in exchange for a single underlying asset**. The discounted tokens vest over a certain amount of time, becoming claimable to the holder of the Reserve Bond NFT incrementally.

Each Bond's discount amount varies based on a combination of market forces. For more on how the discount amount is determined, visit the [Bond Pricing](/apebond/products-and-features/bonds/bonds-pricing.md) page.

### Buying Reserve Bonds

To buy a Bond, a user must acquire the single token required to purchase the Bond. For example, USDT tokens are used to purchase the ABOND Reserve Bonds, which yield ABOND tokens.

From there, users can visit the Bonds page on ApeBond, and select the Reserve Bond they would like to purchase.

## 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://docs.ape.bond/apebond/products-and-features/bonds/reserve-bonds.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.
