What is a Crypto Points & Incentives Program?
A crypto points & incentives program is a framework that rewards users with points, tokens, or benefits for specific on-chain or community actions, turning participation into measurable value.A well-designed points & incentives program builds fair and scalable incentives that avoid dilution and gaming. These programs drive engagement, but poorly structured ones can lead to exploits, inflation and diminishing value.These are all risks a smart contract audit and a tokenomics audit would proactively address. We design reward structures that actually work by aligning crypto incentive and web3 points programs to real user value.
