Engagement Marketplace

The Engagement Marketplace is where you can browse and engage with tweets submitted by other miners across the DAO Labs community. It’s a second way to earn points — alongside your own dashboard and connections — by helping the network grow and rewarding quality content from fellow miners.<br>

<figure><img src="/files/WONxhjHMKP3rQSteDoVl" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

#### How to enter the marketplace&#xD;

1. From your dashboard, locate the Engagement Marketplace tile (green card with the storefront icon).
2. Click the tile to open the marketplace.

#### Eligibility requirement

To access the Engagement Marketplace, you must have at least **0.01** reputation.

{% hint style="info" %}
⚠️ **IMPORTANT - Don’t have reputation yet?**

*Stay active on the platform and focus on completing quality tasks. Reputation builds up as your work gets validated as Amazing or Good by the DAO Labs validators. Over time, your reputation will rise above the **0.01** threshold and the marketplace will unlock.*
{% endhint %}

***

### Appealing for marketplace access

If you believe you should have access to the marketplace but your reputation hasn’t caught up yet, you can submit an appeal directly to the support team.

To send an appeal, email <support@dao-labs.com> and include:

* Your DAO Labs Hub username
* Your Twitter (X) account handle
* A short explanation of why you believe you should be granted access

The support team will review your appeal and respond as soon as possible.

{% hint style="info" %}
**💡 TIP**

*The fastest way to access the marketplace is still to build reputation organically through high-quality engagements on tasks. Appeals are reviewed case-by-case and take longer than simply earning the reputation.*
{% endhint %}

### Inside the Marketplace&#xD;

Once you enter the marketplace, you’ll see two main sections side by side.

<figure><img src="/files/Tt3I9xtS2xR3K1aCF6PJ" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

#### User Posts (left column)

This column shows all the tasks and tweets you’ve submitted. Each card displays:

* A small counter showing comments and retweets the post has received
* A tweet preview with the title and a snippet of the content
* A **View Engagements** button — opens a detailed view where you can see who engaged with your post and validate their engagements.

#### Tasks Marketplace (right grid)

This is where you’ll spend most of your time as a miner. It shows tweets and tasks submitted by other miners that are open for engagement.

#### Anatomy of a task card

Each card packs a lot of information into a compact layout. Here’s a closer look:

<figure><img src="/files/QsCYGownDZWslCtyNGxA" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Each task card shows the following:

* **Submitter’s avatar and username:** e.g., roberthopp3r
* **Wallchain score badge:** the orange numbered circle on the avatar (e.g., #7) — a quick trust indicator
* **Blue timer badge:** real-time activity timing for the submitter
* **Green comment badge:** click to see the submitter’s current leaderboard ranking
* **Follower count:** e.g., 1.1k+ — the submitter’s X audience
* **REP score:** e.g., 0.09 REP — the submitter’s reputation on DAO Labs
* **Type label:** TWEET or TASK in the top-left corner of the preview
* **Tweet preview:** image, title, and content snippet
* **Top engagers row:** small avatars below showing the top 5 engagers — only the top 5 are shown publicly
* **Comment + Retweet buttons:** each labeled with the engagement counter (e.g., 1/10)
* **Link icon:** opens the original tweet on X (Twitter)

{% hint style="info" %}
**💡 TIP**

*Use the badges to size up a task before engaging. A submitter with high **Wallchain score**, healthy **REP**, and an active green comment badge is a strong signal that engaging on their post is worthwhile — they’re more likely to validate your engagement promptly and rate it fairly.*
{% endhint %}

#### Speed Multipliers — engage fast, earn more

When you engage with a marketplace tweet, how quickly you do it determines your reward multiplier. The faster you engage after a task is published, the higher your multiplier.

| **Multiplier** | **Time Window**              | **Description**                   |
| -------------- | ---------------------------- | --------------------------------- |
| x300           | Within 20 minutes of publish | Fastest tier — highest reward     |
| x200           | Within 40 minutes of publish | Mid tier                          |
| x100           | Within 60 minutes of publish | Standard tier                     |
| No multiplier  | After 60 minutes             | Late engagement — reduced rewards |

You’ll see a multiplier badge with a countdown timer on tasks that still have an active multiplier window (e.g., 13:49 · x100). Once the timer expires, that multiplier tier closes.

{% hint style="info" %}
**💡 Strategy Tip**

*Refresh your marketplace regularly to catch fresh tasks within their x300 window. Speed compounds — fast engagements earn dramatically more than late ones.*
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
**⚠️ IMPORTANT**&#x20;

*Speed alone isn’t enough. Your engagement still needs to be quality content to earn full rewards. Spammy or low-quality engagements get rated Suboptimal or Reject by validators and earn far fewer points.*
{% endhint %}

### Marketplace Header & Status Icons

At the top of the Tasks Marketplace and across the dashboard, you’ll see a row of icons and badges that give you instant access to your stats and to community-wide features.

#### Header icons&#xD;

* **Leaderboard (trophy icon)** — opens the full Marketplace Leaderboard popup. See Section 9.
* **Daily Gifts** — extra points awarded automatically if you finish the day as the Top Engager or Fastest Validator. You need to claim these — if you can't claim they will stack up until you claim them all.
* **Blue Timer Badge** — shows your validation score and ranking. The badge updates every 30 minutes, so your ranking always reflects activity from the past 30-minute window.
* **Green Comment Badge** — your personal engagement ranking and score shortcut. Click it to instantly see your current rank and score on the leaderboard, without having to scroll through to find yourself.

### Points, Rep, and Credit Icons

These three icons are always visible at the top-right of the dashboard. Each represents a different account currency:

| **Icon**                  | **What It Represents** | **Description**                                                                                                                     |
| ------------------------- | ---------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Yellow star (gold coin)   | Real-time points       | Your live total earnings on the platform — updates as you engage and as validations come in                                         |
| Blue star                 | Reputation (REP)       | Your trust score on DAO Labs. Builds slowly through quality work. Needed to access the marketplace and unlocks higher-credit tiers. |
| Coins (next to blue star) | Credits                | Your engagement budget — every engagement costs 1 credit. Refills daily. Higher REP = more credits.                                 |

{% hint style="info" %}
**💡 TIP**

*Hover over any of the right-side icons to see a quick breakdown of recent changes (points earned today, REP delta this week, credits used vs. available).*
{% endhint %}

### Marketplace Leaderboard

The Marketplace Leaderboard ranks miners across the entire DAO Labs community. It opens as a popup over your marketplace and lets you switch between four categories and five time periods.

<figure><img src="/files/fb4ocGV4FnasFUIG9uYH" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

#### The four leaderboard categories&#xD;

| **Category**      | **Ranks miners by**                                                                             |
| ----------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Top Earner        | Total points earned in the period                                                               |
| Top Engager       | Engagement quality + speed in the period                                                        |
| Fastest Validator | Validation speed + accuracy in the period                                                       |
| Calendar          | A date-based view that lets you browse top engagers from any specific day, week, month, or year |

#### The five time periods&#xD;

Every category can be filtered by:

* **Daily** — today’s snapshot
* **Weekly** — current week
* **Monthly** — current month
* **Yearly** — current year
* **All Time** — full lifetime ranking

#### Reading a leaderboard entry

Each row in a populated leaderboard shows several pieces of information at a glance.

<figure><img src="/files/9HYIKkf7WJiwZ6gDT085" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

A typical row contains:

* **Rank icon** — gold medal for #1, silver for #2, bronze for #3, plain numbers for #4 and below
* **Avatar and username** — the miner’s display name and Twitter handle
* **REP score and follower count** — quick indicators of their account standing
* **Score** — their leaderboard score for the selected period
* **Avg time** — average response time (engage speed for engagers, validation speed for validators)
* **YOU badge** — if you appear on the board, your row is highlighted with this label
* **ⓘ info icon** — click for a detailed score breakdown

#### The Calendar view&#xD;

The Calendar tab is a special date-browser that lets you see top engagers from any specific point in time. It changes layout depending on which time filter you select.

<p align="center"><strong>Daily view — pick a specific date</strong></p>

<figure><img src="/files/HA4C7rKXpNErqY7pw8e8" alt=""><figcaption><p>Figure: Calendar view set to Daily showing a monthly grid</p></figcaption></figure>

When **Daily** is selected, the calendar shows a full month grid. Click any date to see the **top 5 engagers** for that day. Use the arrow buttons **(< and >)** to move between months.

<p align="center"><strong>Weekly view — pick a week of the month</strong></p>

<figure><img src="/files/K8tN6DNKdw7BsWRnbNZT" alt=""><figcaption><p>Figure: Calendar view set to Weekly showing the weeks of a selected month</p></figcaption></figure>

When Weekly is selected, the calendar shows each week of the current month as a card (e.g., Week 1: Apr 27 – May 3). Click any week card to see the top engagers for that week.

<p align="center"><strong>Monthly view — pick a month of the year</strong></p>

<figure><img src="/files/kp1hUefngozMPeS7kiEf" alt=""><figcaption><p>Figure: Calendar view set to Monthly showing the 12 months of a selected year</p></figcaption></figure>

When Monthly is selected, the calendar shows all 12 months of the year as a grid. Click any month to see the top engagers for that month. Months in the future are disabled (greyed out).

<p align="center"><strong>Yearly view — pick a year</strong></p>

<figure><img src="/files/w1J3p8R5K1WG6meQErw4" alt=""><figcaption><p>Figure: Calendar view set to Yearly showing the selected year</p></figcaption></figure>

When Yearly is selected, the calendar shows just the year you’re viewing. The top 5 engagers for that year appear directly below.

<p align="center"><strong>All Time — no date selection</strong></p>

<figure><img src="/files/S3uYkbMsYlvafP8rJLoT" alt=""><figcaption><p>Figure: Calendar view set to All Time showing the Fastest Validator board</p></figcaption></figure>

When All Time is selected, there’s no date to choose — the leaderboard simply shows the lifetime top performers. The popup displays the message "All-time leaderboard — no date selection." and shows the rankings below.

***

### Sub-tabs inside the Calendar

When you’re on any Calendar view, a second row of tabs appears below the date picker: **Top Earner** / **Top Engager** / **Fastest Validator.** Use these to switch which type of leaderboard you’re viewing for your selected date — without leaving the Calendar view.

{% hint style="info" %}
**💡 TIP**

*The Calendar view is the most powerful way to study historical performance. If you want to see who dominated last month, or compare yourself against a specific week’s top performers, the calendar is where you’ll find it.*
{% endhint %}

#### When a leaderboard is empty

If no users qualified for a leaderboard in a given period, you’ll see "No leaderboard data found." This is normal for very new periods (early in the day, early in a fresh week) where no one has yet built up enough activity to be ranked.

***

### Validating Engagements on Your Posts

When other miners engage with your tweets, you’re responsible for validating their work. Your rating determines how many points they earn, and validating on time is required to avoid penalties.

#### Validation rewards

For every engagement you validate, you earn 1 point as a validator. Validation does not cost credits — only engagements do.

#### How to validate&#xD;

1. Open your tweet in My Posts on the dashboard or in the marketplace.
2. Click the View Engagements button beneath your post.
3. You’ll see a list of every engagement other miners have made on your post.
4. Click on any engagement to open it and review the content.
5. Choose one of the four validation tiers: Amazing, Good, Suboptimal, or Reject.
6. Submit your rating.

#### The four validation tiers&#xD;

| **Tier**   | **Meaning**            | **Reward**        |
| ---------- | ---------------------- | ----------------- |
| Amazing    | Outstanding quality    | Full points       |
| Good       | Solid quality          | Strong points     |
| Suboptimal | Quality fell short     | Low points        |
| Reject     | Did not meet standards | No points awarded |

#### The 24-hour validation countdown&#xD;

The moment the first engagement lands on your tweet, a 24-hour countdown timer starts on that post. You have until the timer runs out to validate every engagement on the post.

If the timer reaches zero before you validate:

* The system auto-validates any unrated engagements based on the engager’s profile
* You lose 1 point as a penalty for missing the deadline
* You lose the chance to grade those engagements yourself

{% hint style="info" %}
**💡 TIP**

*Watch the countdown timer on your post and check your notifications often. New engagements can come in throughout the 24-hour window, so be ready to validate quickly.*
{% endhint %}

#### The high-level warning

If you try to rate a miner with Good, Suboptimal, or Reject when their level is significantly higher than yours, the system will display a warning message before letting you submit.

The warning checks the engager’s level in this order:

1. Wallchain score (primary signal)
2. Reputation (used if Wallchain score is unavailable)
3. Follower count (used as a fallback)

If the engager’s level on these signals is meaningfully higher than yours, the warning will appear.

{% hint style="info" %}
💡 **TIP:  Why this exists**

*Some miners try to mark high-quality engagements as Poor or Reject to game the system. This warning is an anti-abuse mechanism. It doesn’t stop you from submitting — it just asks you to confirm. If you genuinely believe the work was below standard, you can still proceed.*
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
**⚠️ IMPORTANT - NOTE**

*Validation choices influence the trust system. Consistently unfair validations can affect your own Wallchain score over time, so always rate honestly.*
{% endhint %}

#### What you cannot do during validation&#xD;

* You cannot change your rating once submitted, so review the engagement carefully first
* You cannot rate your own engagements (validation only applies to engagements others made on your posts)
* You cannot validate after 24 hours — the system has already done it for you

#### Engaging on Marketplace Tasks

Now you know how to submit your own tweets and validate engagements on them. Here’s how you actually earn points by engaging on other miners’ tasks in the marketplace.

#### Strategy first: prioritize multiplier tasks

When browsing the Tasks Marketplace, look for tasks that still have a speed multiplier badge active. These are the most rewarding engagements:

* **x300** — engage within 20 minutes of the task being posted
* **x200** — engage within 40 minutes
* **x100** — engage within 60 minutes
* **No multiplier** — after 60 minutes, the rewards are much smaller

{% hint style="info" %}
💡 **TIP**

*Refresh the marketplace regularly to catch tasks early. The earlier you engage, the higher your multiplier — and the more points you earn for the same effort.*
{% endhint %}

#### Two engagement types per task

Each task offers two ways to earn points:

| **Task source**                       | **Engagement options**                             |
| ------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------- |
| Tweets (submitted via Twitter Module) | Comment + Retweet                                  |
| Tasks (submitted as official tasks)   | Comment + Quote (quote tweet / share with caption) |

You can do both engagement types on a single task. Each one is a separate engagement that costs 1 credit and earns its own points.

#### How to engage on a task

1. In the Tasks Marketplace, find a task you want to engage with — ideally one with an active multiplier badge.
2. Click the card to open the task. You’ll be redirected to the post on X (Twitter).
3. Write your comment, retweet, or quote directly on X.
4. Copy the URL of your comment, retweet, or quote from X.
5. Return to the Engagement Marketplace.
6. Paste your link into the submission field for that task.
7. Submit.

Your engagement is now logged, and the post’s author has 24 hours to validate it.

{% hint style="info" %}
**⚠️ IMPORTANT**&#x20;

*The link you submit must be the URL of your specific engagement (your comment, your retweet, or your quote) — not the original task tweet. The system needs to verify your action actually happened on X.*
{% endhint %}

#### Quality matters as much as speed

Even on an **x300** task, a low-quality comment will be rated Suboptimal or Reject by the author and you’ll earn very few points. The full reward only goes to engagements that are both fast and well-written.

{% hint style="info" %}
💡 **TIP: The winning combo**

*Speed + Quality. A fast Amazing comment on an x300 task is the highest-paying single action on the platform.*
{% endhint %}

#### What happens after you engage

* 1 credit is deducted from your daily/weekly balance
* The engagement appears in your Engagement History with the multiplier you locked in
* The author is notified and has 24 hours to validate
* Once validated, points are awarded based on your multiplier × validation tier
* You’ll see a notification when the points land

#### Quick-Access Icons

Two icons sit together at the top of your dashboard for fast access to your activity records and alerts: Engagement History and Notifications. They’re both clickable popups that overlay on top of the dashboard.

#### Engagement History

The Engagement History is your full record of every engagement that has happened — both the engagements you made on other miners’ tweets and the engagements other miners made on your tweets.

<figure><img src="/files/YEpT0uqTekyWDpaRHepx" alt=""><figcaption><p>Figure: The Engagement History popup showing engagements with multipliers, validation results, and points earned</p></figcaption></figure>

**Reading "Me" vs. another username**

Each row in the history is labeled either with Me or with another miner’s username:

* **"Me"** → an engagement you made on someone else’s post
* **Another username** → an engagement that user made on your post

**Validation results explained**

| **Result**       | **Source**     | **Meaning**                                                    |
| ---------------- | -------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------- |
| AMAZING          | Post author    | Best tier — full points                                        |
| GOOD             | Post author    | Solid quality — strong points                                  |
| POOR             | Post author    | Quality fell short — low points                                |
| REJECTED         | Post author    | Did not meet standards — no points                             |
| VERIFIED         | System scanner | For retweets — confirmed the retweet happened on X             |
| SYSTEM-VALIDATED | System         | Triggered when the author missed the 24-hour validation window |

**Filtering and searching**

Use the tools at the top of the popup to find specific engagements:

* **Search username** — find all engagements involving a particular user (yours toward them, or theirs toward you)
* **All scores dropdown** — filter by rating tier (All scores, Amazing, Good, Poor, Rejected, Verified, System-Validated)

**Tracking your credits**

The credit indicator (e.g., -1 (2), -1 (3)) shows your engagement’s credit cost and your running balance. Use this to confirm credits are being deducted correctly, see how many credits you’ve spent over time, and spot any unusual deductions.

***

### Notifications&#xD;

Right next to the Engagement History icon is the Notifications bell. This is where you’ll see real-time alerts about everything happening on your account.

<figure><img src="/files/m3I14dOU8E436QMiJBv4" alt=""><figcaption><p>Figure: The Notifications panel showing recent activity</p></figcaption></figure>

**Types of notifications you’ll see**

* **New engagement on your task** — e.g., "cryptobeardbill submitted a comment on your task."
* **Engagement validated** — e.g., "Your engagement was validated as amazing, 3 point(s) rewarded."
* **System auto-validation** — appears when the post’s author missed the 24-hour validation window
* **Points updates** — alerts when your tweet earns additional points during a rescan

**Click-through to the action**

Notifications aren’t just static — they’re clickable shortcuts. Tapping any notification jumps you straight to the relevant content.

{% hint style="info" %}
💡 **TIP**

*Use notifications to stay on top of validation deadlines. If someone engaged with your post recently, you have 24 hours to validate their work before the system steps in and you lose a point.*
{% endhint %}

GET https://team-dao-labs.gitbook.io/dao-labs-v2-docs/product-guides/images-and-media.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
