The Merit System turns community activity into revenue for communities. It rewards communities—not individuals—for member efforts, providing steady MYTHO tokens for growth. Here’s how it works:

### **What Is the Merit System?**

Merit is a point system tracking community activity. When members create posts or make Merit Boost, the community earns points. These points convert to MYTHO tokens for the community treasury, rewarding group effort.

### **How Merit Points Are Earned**

Community members earn Merit Points for their community:

### **Merit Boost**

Merit Boost is a simple way to add Merit Points to your community with just one transaction. It’s designed to reward daily engagement and build loyalty over time.

**What Is Merit Boost?**\
\
Merit Boost is a daily activity that lets you earn points for your communities. There are two types: a free Daily Boost and an optional Premium Boost. Consistently boosting also builds a streak for bonus rewards.

**Daily Free Boost:**

Once per UTC day, you can claim a free boost for each community you hold a token for (1+ token).\
This grants a base amount of Merit Points to the community's treasury - 100.

**Premium Boost:**\
\
For a small fee (configurable, starting at $0.10 equivalent in BNB), you can perform a Premium Boost.\
This has a chance to grant a larger **guaranteed** amount of points, with rewards ranging from 500 to 3000 points. You can Premium Boost as many times as you want per day.

**Chances when activating Premium Merit Boost**

* 50% chance to receive 500 points
* 25% chance to receive 700 points
* 15% chance to receive 1000 points
* 7% chance to receive 2000 points
* 3% chance to receive 3000 points

**The Power of Your Streak:**\
\
Your commitment is rewarded with a multiplier.

* **Growing Bonus:** Each consecutive day you boost (free or premium) increases your streak. Your base points get a +5% multiplier for each day in the streak.
* **Maximum Bonus:** The bonus caps at +145% (a 2.45x multiplier) after a 30-day streak.
* **Streak Protection:** If you miss a day, your streak resets to zero. However, earning a 30-day streak grants one "grace day" to protect you from a single mistake. A Premium Boost also grants one grace day on its first use per day.

**Some details about how streaks work**

* The streak countdown starts from the moment of your first boost (Daily or Premium).
* A streak ends if no new boost (Daily or Premium) is made within **48 hours** after the last boost, and you have no more grace days left. (Usually, you can make a Daily Boost **24 hours** after the previous one, with a **24-hour window** for the next boost.)
* Each Premium Boost shifts the streak window — the 48-hour countdown moves forward from the time of the last Premium Boost.
* If you make multiple boosts in a single day — for example, a Daily + Premium or several Premium Boosts — the **first Premium Boost** will grant you **1 Grace Day**. Subsequent Premium Boosts **will not** give additional Grace Days; they will only contribute Merit Points to your community’s treasury and help you climb the leaderboard.
* A **Grace Day is not the same as a streak day**. For example, if your streak is at 3 days and you have 1 Grace Day, skipping the 4th day won’t break your streak thanks to the Grace Day — but your streak counter will **remain at 3** until you make the **fourth boost**.<br>

**Milestones & NFT Badges:**

Reach streak milestones like 7, 14, 30, 100, and 200 days to mint exclusive NFT badges. Once you've hit a milestone, you can mint its badge anytime, even if your streak later breaks. You can earn each badge multiple times.

### **Turning Points into MYTHO**

Each month, Merit points convert to MYTHO tokens. These go to the community treasury—not individuals. Token holders vote on using them (rewards, promotions, etc.).

### **Where MYTHO Comes From**

Communities get MYTHO from:

* 50% Platform Revenue: Half of Mytho's fees (from token sales, swaps, etc.) is distributed based on Merit points
* MYTHO Incentives: Additional tokens from platform reserves (first 4 years only)

### **Monetization for Communities**

More activity = more Merit = more MYTHO. These funds can:

* Increase community visibility
* Reward active members
* Support community projects

Only community votes unlock treasury funds.

### **Mythum: Special Boost Week**

During last monthly week all actions earn 1.5× Merit points
