The Nexus Flywheel: Earning TORUS

The Nexus Flywheel is the economic engine of Swarm Nexus, designed to create a sustainable cycle where community contribution is directly rewarded with a stake in the Torus Network itself.

It's powered by a simple but powerful idea: your impact should generate real value. The efforts you put into growing the ecosystem are recognized, measured via SWARM Points, and finally, rewarded with TORUS tokens.

How The Flywheel Works

The Flywheel creates a continuous, rewarding loop for our most dedicated community members.

1. You Contribute: You add value to the Torus ecosystem by performing actions like ingesting data, creating content, or helping others in the community.

2. You Earn SWARM Points: Our system tracks these contributions and rewards you with SWARM Points, increasing your score on the community Leaderboard.

3. The Leaderboard Ranks Contributors: At the end of each month, we take a snapshot of the Leaderboard to identify the most impactful users over that period.

4. Emissions are Distributed: We use a portion of Swarm Nexus's emissions to create a monthly reward pool of TORUS tokens.

5. Top Contributors Receive TORUS: This reward pool is distributed among the top contributors (e.g., the top 10 or 20) on the leaderboard snapshot. The more SWARM Points you have, the higher your rank and the greater your share of the rewards.

A Sustainable Cycle of Growth

This system creates a powerful flywheel effect:

• Incentive: The opportunity to earn TORUS incentivizes valuable community contributions.

• Growth: Increased contributions lead to a stronger, more vibrant, and better-documented ecosystem.

• Value: A stronger ecosystem increases the value of the Torus Network and the TORUS token itself, making the rewards even more meaningful.

The Nexus Flywheel ensures that those who build up the swarm are directly rewarded with ownership in the network they are helping to create. Your contributions don't just disappear—they fuel your stake in the future of Torus.
