Jan 24, 2025

This week at Cysic, we reached key milestones in our testnet, launched new community spaces, and rolled out exciting product updates. There’s also a new opportunity for Cysors to boost their rewards and stay engaged with our ongoing discussions.

🔥 Testnet Achievement!

The numbers are in, and our progress is incredible! We’ve passed 2,500 provers and we’re nearing 113,000 verifiers. Keep inviting your friends with your referral codes and links — you earn 15% of the Verifier/Prover Rewards your friends make. 👀

🏆 Leaderboard Launch

It’s been over a week since the Cysic Testnet Leaderboard opened, and the competition is heating up! 🔥

Cysors are climbing the ranks, tracking their progress, and earning rewards as they contribute to building the future of ZK hardware.

Have you checked your ranking? If not, there’s still time to jump in. Knock out some tasks, stack up points, and shoot for the top. Who’s taking the crown next? 👑

🛠️ This Week’s Product Update:

⭐ Phase I Rewards Collection

Cysors have been spending the last week collecting their well-earned Phase I rewards. With points from tasks and activities securely stored, many are staking CGTformoreCGT for more CYS and converting CYStoCYS to CGT to boost their rewards.

Have you claimed your rewards yet? If not, head over to the query page and make sure you’re all set for Airdrop Phase I! 🪂✨

⭐ More Tasks. More Rewards.

We’re excited to bring you more tasks in the coming weeks, which means higher chances to complete tasks and, of course, more rewards for your efforts. The more you participate, the more you can earn, so keep an eye out for new tasks and opportunities to level up.

⭐ Android Verification App Launch in Beta Testing Phase

Exciting news, Cysors! We’re thrilled to announce that the Mobile App Beta Testing Phase has officially begun. A select group of our community members with @Nova — Buzz roles have been invited to join this exclusive testing phase.

After the testing concludes, we’ll be rolling out the much-anticipated Mobile App Verifier, allowing you to verify your account directly from your phone. This update is designed to make the process easier and more convenient, so you can stay on top of things even while on the go. Stay tuned for this and more exciting updates!
