Cash - Rewards Flywheel

From Recognition to Rewards

Aura Rewards Flywheel

Aura rewards users not for what they hold, but for what they’ve done. As users mint Soulbound Badges and grow their on-chain identity, they gain access to a wide range of financial and experiential rewards tied directly to their reputation.

These rewards include:

1. USDT Rewards - Users can earn direct USDT payouts by participating in lottery-style campaigns that are both high-stakes and merit-based.

2. Token Airdrops - Eligible users receive token drops from ecosystem partners, distributed based on badge activity and verifiable engagement.

3. Whitelist Access - Holders of specific badges can secure guaranteed spots in exclusive token launches, NFT mints, or early-stage protocol participation.

4. Early Access to Products or Campaigns - High-reputation users gain priority access to new dApps, features, or limited-time events.

5. Exclusive Partner Benefits - Badge holders can unlock perks such as boosted yields, premium access, and invite-only community privileges.

This system creates a win-win dynamic between users and projects:

• Projects can hyper-target aligned participants by badge type, category score, or Aura Score, dramatically increasing the precision and ROI of their user acquisition efforts.

• Users are rewarded for the reputation they’ve earned. Every badge, every engagement, every point of credibility adds to their eligibility and earning potential.

This growing demand for reputation-driven access enhances the utility of the $SHARDS token, which is used to mint badges and power campaign participation. The more users mint, the more value they unlock, reinforcing a sustainable feedback loop of identity, engagement, and rewards.
