How Does the XP System Work and Why Should I Care

Note: This is the updated XP system valid as of July 1st, 2025.

TLDR​

  1. Earn XP for Messages/Posts: ~10-13 points every ~5 minutes. Longer, more thoughtful Messages: Up to 30% points bonus.
  2. High-Quality Alpha Forum Posts: Bonus of 50, 100, or 200 extra points (4x, 7x, or 15x the points of a simple message).
  3. Consistent Valuable Content: Nominate for bi-weekly election of up to 10 most appreciated members, earning 150-750 XP bonus.
  4. Accurate Profitable Calls: 500 XP instant bonus for calls on projects with ≥50% upside or ≥30% downside (if forecast was accurate).

Basics​

XP points are awarded for actively posting (quality) content in the Retail DAO Discord Server. More points lead to higher Levels, which may result in greater Retail Token rewards.

  • Activity: Posting in the Discord Server earns XP, advancing you through ranking levels. Certain milestones grant XP Level roles as rewards.
  • Leaderboard: Visit the Top 100 Leaderboard.
  • Commands:
    • /leaderboard: View top 10 and get Leaderboard link.
    • /level: Check your (or another member’s) level and XP progress.
    • /rewards: View role reward levels/milestones and XP Level roles.

How Does It Work?​

To reach XP Level milestones:

  • Level 1: 75 XP (~6-8 messages)

  • Level 2: 250 XP (+175, ~20-25 messages total)

  • Level 3: 525 XP (+275, ~41-53 messages total)

  • Level 5: 1,375 XP (+850)

  • Level 10: 5,250 XP (+3,875)

  • Level 15: 11,625 XP (+6,350)

  • Level 25: 31,875 XP (+20,250)

  • Level 50: 126,250 XP (+94,375)

  • Earning XP: Randomized points for posts/messages in ALPHA ZONE and GOVERNANCE ZONE. Higher-effort messages may receive a bonus percentage.

  • Anti-Spam Measures: Monitoring prevents bad-faith gaming of the system, which may lead to point loss, mute, or ban.

  • Rewards Seasons: Every ~4 months, a snapshot of XP Level role statuses determines token distributions. Higher XP Levels yield more tokens.

  • Reset: After each season’s snapshot, XP points and XP Level roles reset.

  • Eligibility: Must qualify for the Verified Members role on airdrop distribution day to receive XP airdrop.

  • Level 50 → XP Level 50 role

XP Bonuses​

The XP system rewards quantity (activity) and quality (exceptional contributions) via bonus points.

Forum Post Bonus​

High-quality posts in the ALPHA FORUM can earn bonus XP.

How It Works:​

  1. Nomination: Posts with ≥5 positive reactions can be nominated by tagging @Contributors/@Moderators in the Forum Post Thread or ⁠general-chat with a link. Contributors/Moderators can initiate without 5 reactions.
  2. Polling: A 24-hour poll is created with options:
    • 50 XP bonus
    • 100 XP bonus
    • 200 XP bonus
    • Abstain (no bonus)
  3. Voting: If ≥5 votes are cast, the original poster (OP) receives the winning points. Ties default to the lower XP option.
  4. Confirmation: An admin claims the poll, announces the XP bonus in a reply, and confirms via the Leaderboard Channel.

Encourage high-quality posts by reacting to them to qualify for nomination! Note: Eligibility criteria may adjust if reaction thresholds or nomination volumes become unmanageable.

Bi-Weekly Election of Most Appreciated Members​

  • Process: Bi-weekly poll nominates (up to) 20 most active members. All members vote for those contributing high-quality content in the Alpha Zone.
  • Voting: Each member casts up to 5 votes (nominees can vote but not for themselves).
  • Rewards: Up to 10 winners receive:
    • 1st: 750 XP
    • 2nd: 700 XP
    • 3rd: 650 XP
    • 4th: 600 XP
    • 5th: 500 XP
    • 6th: 400 XP
    • 7th: 300 XP
    • 8th: 250 XP
    • 9th: 200 XP
    • 10th: 150 XP
  • Eligibility: Nominees need ≥3 votes to rank. Ties are resolved by fewer messages; if still tied, each gets the higher rank’s points.

Instant XP Bonus for Alpha Calls​

  • Reward: 500 XP instant bonus for accurate alpha calls/forecasts.
  • Requirements:
    • Post must include token ticker, name, current price/buy zone, time window, and reason for expected price action.
    • Price move: ≥50% upside or ≥30% downside.
    • Moderators may disqualify nominees with a history of spamming predictions.
  • Process: Any member can highlight a successful call for moderator verification. If valid, 500 XP is awarded instantly.

Note: System parameters may be adjusted by Admins/Contributors based on evolving experience.
