Testnet Incentives

In order to more closely simulate the economy of our mainnet, participants on testnets can now earn Joystream Testnet Tokens (tJOYs) backed by fiat currency.

Token in numbers

Value backing dynamics

There are two dynamics that impact the amount of value backing the tokens at any given time.

All else being equal, as these two rewards are added to the pool, the redemption price of the tokens increases.

Replenishment

At some regular interval, which may itself be updated over time, some quantity of USD value is added to the pool of value.

Last replenishment: $250 added on May 25th

KPI Rewards

At any given time, there is a set of key performance indicators (KPI) which define success metrics for the overall system, and how much value is added to the reward pool. The actual success of the system is judged by Jsgenesis representatives at designated times.

The set of KPIs, and the terms associated with them, will change over time.
