# Points & Rewards

**Transforming Quality Information into Cryptocurrency Value**

CashKey's points and rewards system creates a transparent, fair, and sustainable economy where valuable information is properly compensated. This comprehensive guide explains how you earn points, how they convert to $CKY tokens, and how to maximize your rewards.

## 💰 Point System Overview

### Core Mechanics

Points in CashKey represent the verified value of your information contributions. Every approved Key earns points based on AI evaluation scores, which will later convert to $CKY tokens during the Token Generation Event (TGE).

### Point Calculation Formula

```
Total Points = (Base Points × Quality Multiplier × Category Multiplier) + Bonus Points
```

**Base Points Range**: 50-500 points per Key **Maximum Possible**: 1,000+ points for exceptional contributions

## 📊 Base Point Structure

### AI Score Mapping

Points are directly linked to AI evaluation scores:

| AI Score | Base Points | Quality Level | Approval Status |
| -------- | ----------- | ------------- | --------------- |
| 90-100   | 400-500     | Exceptional   | ✅ Approved      |
| 80-89    | 300-399     | High Quality  | ✅ Approved      |
| 70-79    | 200-299     | Good Quality  | ✅ Approved      |
| 60-69    | 100-199     | Standard      | ✅ Approved      |
| 50-59    | 50-99       | Below Average | ✅ Approved      |
| Below 50 | 0           | Poor Quality  | ❌ Rejected      |
