# Posts Posts are content entries on your community page (text, images, videos, links). They make your community dynamic and valuable. Example: For a music community, a post could be a song clip or artist interview. **Key Features:** * Open creation: Any token holder can post (not just admins) * Each post is an ERC-721/BEP-721 token—a type of NFT. This means it’s a distinct asset with clear ownership, stored securely on the blockchain. You own it, and it can’t be duplicated.

Visibility settings: Public: Visible to all (attracts new members) or Private: Exclusive to community token holders (rewards, special content)

### **How to Create a Post:**

* Step 1: Log into Mytho and go to your community’s page. You need to hold at least 1 community tokens to post. * Step 2: Upload your content—say, a meme or a video—through the platform’s interface. * Step 3: Submit it for approval. * Result: Your post becomes a unique NFT (a one-of-a-kind digital item) that people can view, support, or buy. ### **Post Publication** 1. If a post is created by the Chief or a community collaborator, it is published automatically. 2. If a post is created by other community members, it will be sent for review by the Chief and collaborators. A corresponding notification will appear in their account headers, and a **“Posts to review”** tab will also appear on the community page. (Note: other community members can submit no more than one post every 24 hours.)

Chiefs or collaborators can either **Approve** the post — making it publicly visible on the community page — or **Decline** it, for example, if it violates community rules. ### Shard Tokens

Posts come with a bonus called Shard Tokens, which are the platform’s internal currency. * Earning Them: * Creators: You get Shard Tokens when you publish a post. * Supporters: You earn them by “boosting” a post—locking some of your community tokens to promote it inside the platform. * Using Them: Swap Shard for perks like badges (to show off your status), extra staking power for MYTHO, or other platform benefits to come 😎. * Minting and Burning: They’re created when you make or boost a post and destroyed when you use them, keeping the system balanced. * Shard Tokens are distributed between the post author and the boosters at the moment of the post’s first unboost. * The post author receives 10% of the total Shards accumulated by boosters within 24 hours after the post is published. This ties the author’s earnings to the popularity of their work. * The number of Shard Tokens for post boosters is calculated using the formula:

rᵢ — reward of a specific participant\ S — base amount of Shards (variable, can be adjusted)\ lᵢ — tokens locked by the participant\ T — total supply of the community token token\ L — total amount of locked tokens ### Post boosting

The boosting mechanism is a kind of “like” system on Mytho. It allows you to express your support for content and also promote the post across the platform. The more boost a post receives, the higher it appears on Mytho’s homepage — making both the post and the community more visible. * You can boost a post within 24 hours after it’s published * A boost is essentially the locking of your community tokens in favor of the post for a 24-hour period * The reward for boosting is Shard Tokens * The more tokens you lock, and the higher the total boost of the post — the more Shard Tokens you receive **How to boost post** * Click the Boost button under the post * Select the desired amount of community tokens and click Boost * Confirm the transaction **How to unboost**

* Unboost becomes available 24 hours after the post is published * To quickly find posts you’ve boosted, check the “Posts I've boosted” box in the top-right corner of the post feed * Find the desired post and click the Unboost button under the post image * Shard Tokens will be credited to your account, and the community tokens will be returned to your wallet ### Post Donations

You can support a post author with a donation. Mytho charges a 20% fee on donations, which is directed to the system treasury. The community earns Merit Points proportional to the donation amount — 1,600 Merit Points per $1 donated (in BNB). ### Benefits of Posts * For Communities: Each approved post earns Merit points for the community, which turn into MYTHO for the treasury. Boosted post also make the community more visible on Mytho. * For You: Adding a post gets you Shard Tokens, and as an NFT, you can sell it or earn royalties if it’s resold later. Authors of posts can also receive donations from users who appreciate their work. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
