🤝 Contribution Categories¶
Moosh recognizes contributions across multiple categories to reflect the different ways participants can meaningfully engage with the system during the testnet phase.
These categories are not intended to rank importance or imply equal weight. Instead, they represent different types of signals that help the protocol understand:
- network growth
- protocol usage patterns
- system quality and reliability
Contribution categories are used for classification and analysis purposes only.
They do not imply rewards, ownership, or future entitlements.
🌱 Referral Contribution¶
Help Grow the Network
Referral contributions capture actions that help expand the Moosh network through meaningful onboarding of new participants.
This category focuses on whether newly introduced users actually engage with the protocol and perform qualifying actions. Referral activity is evaluated based on follow-through and real participation, rather than the creation or distribution of referral identifiers alone.
Referral contribution helps the system understand how users discover Moosh and how effectively new participants transition into active usage.
⚙️ Protocol Usage Contribution¶
Participate in the Protocol
Protocol usage contributions reflect direct interaction with Moosh’s core lending functionality.
Examples include:
- supplying assets
- borrowing against collateral
- managing positions over time
These interactions provide signals about real usage patterns, parameter behavior, and system boundaries under varying conditions.
The system prioritizes genuine usage. Repetitive, scripted, or artificially generated activity may be filtered or deprioritized.
🛠️ System Support Contribution¶
Support & Improve the System
System support contributions include actions that help improve the quality, reliability, and clarity of the protocol.
Examples include:
- identifying bugs or unexpected behavior
- testing edge cases
- providing structured feedback
- improving documentation or community understanding
These contributions often require contextual evaluation, as their value may not be visible through usage data alone.
Notes on Contribution Categories¶
Contribution categories are not mutually exclusive. A single participant may contribute across multiple categories over time.
The presence of multiple categories does not imply that all contributions are measured or interpreted in the same way. Each category represents a different dimension of system engagement.
Contribution categorization and interpretation may evolve as the protocol and testing objectives develop.
