Overview of Incentive Structure
The incentive structure of the Golden Age Testnet is fairly straightforward:
- There is a pool of 10 million Mainnet Quai tokens that will be distributed to Golden Age Testnet participants.
- These rewards will be distributed proportionally to the amount of Testnet Quai tokens each address holds at the end of the Golden Age Testnet.
For example, if an address has accumulated 1% of all circulating Testnet Quai by the end of the Golden Age Testnet, they will receive 1% of the total Mainnet rewards pool, or 100,000 Mainnet Quai.
The Golden Age Testnet will open to the public on 10/15/2024.
What Makes This Testnet Gamified?
The Golden Age Testnet is unique in that it is fully gamified, introducing competitive elements and multiple pathways to earn rewards. Participants can track their performance, climb leaderboards, and engage in activities that feel more like a game than a traditional testnet. Whether you’re a miner, developer, or trader, you can strategize your participation to maximize your earnings.
How Do I Earn Rewards?
There are multiple ways to maximize your Testnet Quai token holdings and earn rewards in this gamified experience:
- Mining: If you have access to mining hardware, mining Quai is the most efficient way to accumulate significant amounts of Testnet tokens.
- Developing: Got EVM development skills? Deploy a project that collects fees or royalties, and drive activity to it. This can be a highly effective way to earn Testnet tokens.
- Trading: If you don’t have access to hardware or development skills, don’t worry! Use the Proof-of-Work faucet to get some Testnet Quai tokens and trade QRC-20 tokens or NFTs.
- Arbitraging Quai <> Qi: Quai’s two-token system opens up an arbitrage opportunity for both miners and users. By utilizing this arbitrage, participants can grow their Testnet holdings.
- Social Sharing & Challenges: Participate in a series of social media challenges to earn even more rewards. Engaging with Quai’s Twitter posts and participating in community challenges can unlock Testnet rewards. There will be evergreen, weekly, and daily challenges, with the biggest rewards going to the most creative and dedicated participants.
