Points System

Tharwa's points system is how we reward contribution, not speculation.

Instead of retroactive airdrops based on random snapshots or sybil-gamed wallets, we use a forward-facing model. Points are earned through actions that actually grow the protocol during specific seasonal campaigns.

This isn't just about who shows up early. It's about who sticks around and adds value.

How It Works

The points system runs in seasons, each with its own focus, earning mechanics, and reward pool. This approach allows Tharwa to:

Security & Anti-Abuse

Review Process:

• Automated detection of suspicious wallet patterns

Common Abuse Patterns:

• Wallet clustering and coordination networks
