General Questions

1. When did the campaign start and how can I participate?

Week 2 of the Boost Creator Fund campaign started on May 11th at 1:00 UTC. To participate, you will need to mint an NFT on Zora , Sound.xyz , Mirror or Pods and boost it on Boost Manager. The top 20% of participants that drive the most boosted mint completions during this week will receive an allocation of this week’s 10K OP reward pool.

2. What boosts will count toward my Week 1 score?

Any live boosts on Zora, Sound, Mirror and Pods mints running from May 11th at 1:00 UTC to May 18th at 0:00 UTC qualify for the Week 2 reward pool of 20K OP. Boosts can be created before the May 11th start date.

During Week 2, any boosted mint completions with a reward of >$0.10 will count toward your Week 2 score. Additional multipliers will be applied as well. If the duration of the boost continues after May 18th at 0:00 UTC, it can continue to qualify for the Week 2 reward pool.

3. Can I boost any mints or just my own mints?

For Week 2, any live mints on Zora, Sound, Mirror or Pods can be boosted. It can be published on any date and by any wallet address as long as the mint is active. However, for Zora mints, Boost can only support free mints or mints paid in ETH.

4. Do all participants get rewarded?

Only the top 20% of participants with the highest weekly score will be allocated a percentage of the weekly reward pool. So for Week 1, the top 20% of participants will be allocated a percentage of 10K OP.

5. Can I boost more than one mint at a time?

Yes, you can boost multiple different mints at the same time.

Weekly Scoring & Distribution Questions

6. Where can I check my weekly score, ranking and OP allocation?

Head to the Boost Creator Fund Leaderboard . At the end of each campaign week, you will see your final weekly score, if you ranked in the top 20% and your allocation of the weekly reward pool.

7. How are weekly scores calculated?

Weekly scores are calculated based on the number of boosted mint completions driven. Any additional mints driven outside of boosts do not count toward your score.

Additional multipliers based on key metrics that matter to the Boost ecosystem will also be applied to your score. These metrics are:

• Rewards Claimed ($USD): Amount of rewards ($USD) claimed by Boost Completors

• Verified Farcaster Address: A Boost Completor wallet that is also a custody address associated with a Farcaster account

• First Time Boost Completor: A new Boost Completor wallet to the Boost ecosystem

• Unique Boost Completors: A unique Boost Completor wallet per boost

Scoring methodology and rules will change weekly. Check the Boost Creator Fund Leaderboard for the most up-to-date scoring methodology.

8. How are rewards allocated to the weekly top 20%?

The weekly reward pool is distributed to the top 20% of participants with the highest scores of the week. Rewards are split based on the percentage of their total score across the reward recipients.

9. How do I receive my OP token rewards?

The official reward recipients will be announced following the close of each campaign week on Boost Twitter, Farcaster and Discord.

If you are a recipient, the tokens will be distributed directly to the wallet that created the boosts. Rewards will be distributed over two months, starting a week after the close of each campaign week.

How to Boost Questions

10. How do I boost a mint?

It only takes a few minutes to boost a Zora, Sound, Mirror or Pods mint. To start, read this guide for creators on how to deploy your first mint boost.

11. Can I use my social or community token as a reward?

Yes! You can use any ERC20 token (i.e. DEGEN, HIGHER, IMAGINE, etc.) to reward users for collecting the mint. Read this short guide on how to use custom token rewards on Boost.

12. What are some strategies to drive more mints?

The higher the reward is for collectors, the more likely they will complete your boost. You will have to experiment to see what works for your mints, but we typically recommend covering about 70-80% of the collector’s cost to transact. Keep in mind that incentivizing mints with Boost will also increase your organic discovery on trending pages to drive you more mints!
