Last night I researched Virtuals @virtuals_io408 to understand the gameplay of this project. Good projects don't require too much explanation, just go straight to the tutorial:


After binding the wallet, I won't talk about linking Twitter and other nonsense.

The main point is to earn points and then participate in new projects; there is a strategy in project selection, trying to choose popular projects.

Points equal the quota given to you for participating in new projects. For example, if you have 10,000 points, you can exchange for 20 tokens.
In reality, it also deducts a little from your platform token $VIRTUAL, so you don’t need to fill the token completely here; the remainder will be refunded to you. If you have many tokens, just fill it up; it will be refunded anyway.



【How to earn points??????】

1. The original method is to tweet high-quality tweets about this project. I have tested that tweeting and tagging the official account daily can earn several hundred points. Try tagging the official account more in the comments section, and test various channels; as long as you get points, it’s fine.
(It’s unclear whether yap points with high amounts will have higher weight, as it has recently been linked to Kaito.)

2. Staking platform tokens $VIRTUAL can be purchased on the BASE chain at the current price of around $1.8. Staking platform tokens also gives you airdrops + points. Some brothers have calculated that regardless of price fluctuations, the airdrops and points from staking can generally break even in a short time. You can first buy a small amount to calculate the break-even cycle before investing heavily.

3. The project team will grant points to Kaito stakers of 5000 tokens (the requirements are slightly higher for top-level stakers).

4. Diamond Hand Reward: Virtuals encourages long-term holding. Users who continuously hold Genesis ecosystem project tokens can receive additional point rewards (diamond hand bonus), while 'paper hands' (quick selling) behavior will trigger penalties.
You need to manually claim these points every day.



【Alright, let's talk about the issue of selling tokens after receiving them】

After receiving the tokens, should you sell or not? You need to understand in detail what will happen after selling before making a decision.

To avoid penalties, consider waiting at least 24 hours (or until the project's green lock period ends) after receiving the tokens before selling. Quick selling may lead to being unable to participate in IDOs, reduced points, or limitations on airdrops (staking $VIRTUAL), affecting future earnings. It is recommended to either accept the penalties and continue later.

Selling tokens immediately after participating in an IDO may face the following penalty mechanisms:

1. Prohibition from participating in subsequent IDOs:
If tokens are sold immediately after the IDO opens, you will be prohibited from participating in new IDOs for 7 days.
2. Suspension of acquiring Virgen Points:
Selling tokens may temporarily prevent you from earning points. The suspension of acquiring points will affect future IDOs, as you won't have points to participate. Some brothers have mentioned that points will be awarded but significantly less.

3. 'Small black room' mechanism:
After selling tokens, you may be sent to a 'small black room' (restricted status) where you can only earn partial points (e.g., yap points), and the number of points will significantly decrease based on the duration of the confinement. The maximum confinement time can last up to 10 days, with the specific duration depending on the number of tokens sold.

4. There will be airdrop restrictions for stakers of $VIRTUAL tokens:
Selling tokens obtained through airdrops may lead to the suspension of subsequent airdrop allocations. The official has not specified the exact duration of the suspension, but it is recommended to avoid selling during the project's 'green lock period' to prevent affecting future airdrop rights.
