FAQ

What is Cryptomate?

Cryptomate is a decentralized platform that leverages human expertise to enhance AI-generated content in the cryptocurrency and blockchain space. It uses an innovative augment-to-earn system to incentivize knowledgeable participants to contribute their insights.

How does the augment-to-earn system work?

The augment-to-earn system allows users (Augmenters) to stake tokens, review AI-generated content, and provide improvements or alternatives. Accepted contributions are rewarded with both reputation points and additional tokens.

What is the CMA token and how is it used?

CMA is the native token of the Cryptomate ecosystem. It's used for staking to participate in tasks, voting on poll tasks, and as a reward for accepted contributions. CMA tokens represent both governance rights and economic stake in the platform.

How can I become an Augmenter?

To become an Augmenter, you need to acquire CMA tokens and stake them in the platform. You'll then be able to participate in tasks, provide augmentations, and earn rewards for accepted contributions.

Is my staked CMA locked?

No, your staked CMA is not locked. You can transfer or withdraw your stake at any time. However, maintaining a stake allows you to continue participating in tasks and earning rewards.

How is reputation different from stake?

While stake is represented by CMA tokens and can be transferred or withdrawn, reputation is a non-transferable score that reflects your history of successful contributions. Reputation can only increase over time and represents your standing in the Cryptomate community.

What types of tasks can I participate in as an Augmenter?

There are three types of tasks: Feedback Tasks (judged by end-users), Prediction Tasks (evaluated based on future outcomes), and Poll Tasks (determined by consensus among Augmenters).

How are rewards distributed?

Rewards are distributed to Augmenters who supported the accepted completion. Token rewards are proportional to each Augmenter's stake, while reputation rewards are given equally to all who supported the accepted completion.

What happens if my contribution isn't accepted?

If your contribution isn't accepted, you don't receive token rewards for that task. However, your reputation score is not negatively affected. This encourages participation without penalizing occasional misses.

How does Cryptomate ensure the quality of information provided to users?

Cryptomate combines AI-generated content with human expertise. The multi-stage process of initial AI generation, human augmentation, and the acceptance process (including user feedback for some tasks) helps ensure high-quality, accurate information is provided to end-users.
