Reward Engine – Message Mining, Referral System, and User Incentives

Sudo’s reward engine transforms user activity into tangible value, ensuring that every meaningful interaction contributes to the growth of the network. Instead of relying on traditional advertising models, Sudo incentivizes usage through message mining, a multi-level referral system, and engagement-based rewards—all powered by the SUDO token. This model aligns user incentives with the protocol’s long-term sustainability and deflationary tokenomics.

1. Message Mining

Message Mining is the core rewards mechanism within Sudo. It rewards genuine, high-value interactions while actively discouraging spam and abuse.

Action Type	Reward Type	Notes
Receiving a Message	SUDO Tokens	Reward is only triggered if the message is received and read.
Sending a Message	None	No reward to prevent self-spam or farmed conversations.
Max Daily Rewards	100 messages/day	Ensures fair distribution and prevents monopolization.
Quality Filter	Anti-spam measures	Messages that are too short, empty, or low-effort do not qualify.

Key Feature: Zero-Cost Mining — Users do not need to stake or buy SUDO to start earning. Simply participating in the network generates rewards.

2. Referral System

Sudo implements a multi-level, performance-based referral system that encourages organic user acquisition.

Referral Type	Incentive Type	Trigger Condition
Direct Referral	10% of referred user’s reward pool earnings	Only when the referred user is active.
Indirect Referral	5% from Level 2 referrals	Applies only to the second tier of referral connections.
Token Utility Bonus	Referral NFT with perks	Provides username discounts and burn reduction benefits.

Each user receives a unique referral link and code, tracked both on-chain and in-app for full transparency.

3. Engagement Incentives

To maintain a healthy and active user base, Sudo layers additional engagement rewards:

Activity Type	Reward / Unlock	Notes
Daily Login	Streak bonus (SUDO)	Rewards increase with consecutive active days.
Group Participation	Access to premium group calls	Only for verified wallets and engaged members.
Plugin Installation	One-time bonus	Encourages use of Sudo’s developer ecosystem.
Task Completion	Scratch card with SUDO reward	Tasks include social shares, quizzes, and invites.
Username Purchase	Premium referral privileges	Short usernames gain higher visibility.

4. Reward Model Constraints

Sudo’s reward system is designed for long-term economic stability:

• Emission Cap: Daily token emission is limited to avoid hyperinflation.

• Reward Pool Funding: Supplied hourly via $2 USDT allocation from SUDO auto-buy mechanism.

• Anti-Mining Abuse: Spam detection and bot filtering ensure only genuine activity is rewarded.

• Referral Trust Checks: Referrals are valid only for verified wallets.

5. Sustainability Through Redistribution

Sudo’s rewards are funded entirely from recirculated value, not inflationary minting. Revenue sources include:

• Premium username purchases.

• Smart contract sync and community linking fees.

• Plugin and MiniApp commission models.

• Group and channel premium feature upgrades.

This creates a net-deflationary reward model—even with token incentives, overall supply decreases over time due to systematic burns.
