Earning PP: Every Action & Cap

Every way to earn Particle Points, with exact base amounts, multipliers, and daily caps. All on-chain actions are verified server-side against the real transaction before points are credited.

Notes:
  • Daily caps reset at 00:00 UTC. Once an action’s cap is reached, further activity that day earns 0 PP from that action (the activity itself still works normally).
  • The streak boost (up to +300%) multiplies the base award of every boost-eligible action — see Streak Boost Explained. Referral bonuses and commissions are never boosted.
  • Bridge is visible in the app as “Soon” and is not live; its rewards are pre-configured and will activate at launch.
  • Profile-completion reward amount: to be confirmed before publication.

Worked example

A user on a 10-day streak (+100% boost) sweeps 8 dust tokens:
Base8 tokens × 50 PP = 400 PP
Sweep multiplier ×52,000 PP
Streak boost +100%4,000 PP
Check against daily cap (5,000)✓ within cap — 4,000 PP awarded
The same sweep with no streak: 2,000 PP. Consistency pays.

How verification works

  • On-chain actions (swap, sweep, burn, spin): the app submits your transaction hash; the backend reads the actual transaction on Base and only then credits PP. Submitting fake or duplicate hashes does nothing — each transaction can be credited once.
  • Social actions (quests): verified through your linked X or Discord account, not screenshots.
User Safety Note No one from DustSwap will ever ask you to send funds, share a seed phrase, or pay a fee to “unlock” PP. Earning PP never requires anything beyond using the app’s own features.

FAQ

I hit a daily cap. Do I lose the extra points? Yes — activity above a cap earns no PP that day. Caps reset at 00:00 UTC. Do failed transactions earn PP? No. Only confirmed, successful transactions are credited. Can I earn PP for swaps made outside the DustSwap app? To be confirmed before publication — currently points are credited for activity recorded through the app.
