Earn Rewards by collecting Points and Badges
The more you contribute, the more you gain! Our badge and point system ensures active participants are rewarded for their hard work. From weekly leaderboards to special badges (Gold, Silver, and Bronze), there are plenty of ways to be recognized.
In the Hyperion Forum, there are two ways to be recognized and earn rewards:
-
Points are earned through daily activities like posting, commenting, and engaging with others. You’ll be rewarded regularly, and the leaderboard will showcase top contributors weekly.
-
Badges are special achievements that recognize your milestones within the community. Badges are grouped into four categories based on specific actions:
- Getting Started: 17 badges
- Community: 20 badges
- Posting: 9 badges
- Trust Level: 4 badges
Each category will feature a combination of Gold, Silver, and Bronze badges, so you can earn recognition based on different actions in the forum.
- Gold: 10 badges
- Silver: 12 badges
- Bronze: 28 badges
- Total: 50 badges
You will earn badges by:
- Engaging in discussions
- Sharing valuable resources
- Joining guilds and supporting the Hyperion ecosystem
- Participating in HyperHack to showcase your innovative projects
Note: All points earned within the Hyperion Forum during the campaign period will be tracked and accumulated. At the conclusion of the Hyperion campaign, these points will be redeemable for future rewards within the Metis ecosystem. Details regarding the specific rewards and the redemption process will be announced at the end of the campaign. This ensures that your contributions and engagement throughout the Hyperion initiative are recognized and rewarded in a meaningful way.
