Social Mining Rewards

How rewards are calculated

Weekly Reward = Base Reward + Bonus
              = f(followers, activity, verification)

Base formula

Base Reward = (followers / 10) * activity_score * quality_multiplier

Example:
+- Followers: 1000
+- Activity score: 80/100 (posts, likes, comments)
+- Quality multiplier: 1.0 (base)
+- Reward: (1000/10) * 0.80 * 1.0 = 80 SOL/week

Concrete example

Alice — Crypto educator

Followers: 2,000
+- Verified followers: 1,900
+- Weekly activity: 45 points
   +- Posts: 20 points
   +- Likes received: 15 points
   +- Comments: 10 points
+- Base reward: 80 SOL
+- Verification bonus (Twitter): +10%
+- Quality multiplier: 1.10 (high engagement)
+- WEEKLY REWARD: 96.8 SOL

Reward Breakdown

Activity Points

ActionPoints
Post once+5 points
Like a post+0.1 points per like given
Comment+1 point per comment
Repost+2 points
Receive a comment+0.5 points
Receive a like+0.2 points

Weekly example (Alice):

Posts: 5 x 5 = 25 points
Likes received: 150 x 0.2 = 30 points
Comments received: 20 x 0.5 = 10 points
Comments made: 5 x 1 = 5 points
-----------------------------
TOTAL: 70 activity points

Quality Multiplier

Multiplier = f(verified followers, engagement rate, account age)

Example:
+- Account age: 6 months -> 0.9x
+- Verified followers ratio: 90% -> 1.1x
+- Engagement rate: 5% -> 1.05x
+- TOTAL MULTIPLIER: 0.9 x 1.1 x 1.05 = 1.04x

Verification Bonus

Base bonus:
+- Twitter: +10%
+- Telegram: +5%
+- Both: +15% (stacking)

Example:
+- Base reward: 100 SOL
+- With Twitter: 100 x 1.10 = 110 SOL
+- With Telegram: 100 x 1.05 = 105 SOL
+- With both: 100 x 1.15 = 115 SOL

Compounding Rewards

The concept

You can:

  1. Earn rewards (SOL)
  2. Deposit back into your account -> lock as collateral -> increases token supply
  3. Token price rises -> followers increase -> rewards rise
  4. Repeat
The cycle:
Reward -> Reinvest -> Token value up -> More followers -> Reward up

Example

Alice's strategy: Reinvest rewards

Week 1:
+- Reward: 80 SOL
+- Claim all: 80 SOL
+- Pocket: 80 SOL

Week 2:
+- Reward: 85 SOL (followers grew)
+- Claim all: 85 SOL
+- Pocket: 165 SOL total

Reinvestment strategy: Put back 50 SOL per week

Week 3:
+- Deposit 50 SOL -> locked as collateral
+- Token price increases
+- Followers grow (token is more valuable)
+- Reward: 95 SOL
+- Pocket: 45 SOL this week (95 - 50 reinvested)
