hand-holding-seedlingSeason 3 Rewards

Theme: Reward Real Economic Contribution to LiveArt Protoco

Season 3 is designed to reward useful, real economic activity on LiveArt — not speculation, passive holding, or artificial volume.

Season 3 rewards users who:

  • Buy RWAs (especially when paying with ART)

  • Generate protocol fees

  • Participate in buyouts

Season 3 does not reward:

  • Holding ART without using the platform

  • Staking ART just to earn yield

  • Short-term flipping or wash trading

The core idea is simple:

If you help the LiveArt economy function, you get better economics on the platform.

ART is treated as the native currency of LiveArt, and Season 3 encourages productive circulation of ART through rebates, discounts, and privileges.


Overview of Season 3 Mechanics

Season 3 consists of four tightly linked components:

  1. Contribution Score – a transparent, activity-based ranking metric

  2. Reward Tiers – percentile-based tiers derived from Contribution Score

  3. ART Payment Rebates – predictable rebates when paying for RWAs with ART

  4. ART Staking as a Cap Booster – optional commitment that increases reward limits, not reward rates

No single component works alone — they reinforce each other.


Contribution Score

The Contribution Score measures how much real economic value a wallet contributes during Season 3.

It is recalculated weekly and finalized at the end of the season.

What counts toward Contribution Score

Contribution Score is based on three signals only:

  1. ART Spend on RWAs – choosing to use ART to buy real assets

  2. Protocol Fees Paid – revenue generated for the platform

  3. Buyout Participation – engagement in real liquidity events


Contribution Score Formula

Let w be a wallet.

Inputs

  • S_w = USD value of RWA purchases paid with ART

  • F_w = USD protocol fees paid (5% primary, 1% secondary, buyout fees)

  • B_w = number of buyout events participated in

Anti-Abuse Rules

Activity is excluded if it involves:

  • Self-trading or same-wallet counterparties

  • Buy/sell round-trips of the same asset within 24 hours

  • Obvious counterparty loops or wash trading

Gas fees never count.


Reward Tiers

Reward tiers are based on percentiles of Contribution Score, not absolute thresholds.

Important Tier Principles

  • Maximum rebate rate is 20%

  • No tier provides guaranteed allocations

  • Top tiers unlock better economics, not speculative upside


ART Payment Rebates

When a user pays for an RWA using ART:

  • A rebate is accrued based on their tier

  • Rebates are capped per wallet per season

  • Rebates may be paid in ART or platform credits

Rebates are merchant-style discounts, not yield.


ART Staking (Optional)

ART staking is not required to earn Season 3 rewards.

Staking ART:

  • Does not increase Contribution Score

  • Does not move users between tiers

  • Only increases the maximum rebate cap a user can receive

Staking Cap Multiplier

Let A_w be ART staked.

Effective rebate cap:

This ensures ART staking only benefits active users.


Transparency & Reporting

Every month, LiveArt will publish a Season 3 update in a consistent format:

  • Active wallets

  • ART used for RWA purchases

  • Protocol fees generated

  • Rebates accrued

  • Tier distribution

Example:


Summary

Season 3 is intentionally "boring" in the right way: no speculation, no artificial scarcity - just better economics for users who actually use LiveArt.

This structure is designed to be:

  • Sustainable

  • Transparent

  • Fair

  • Defensible
