DUST Points

The $DUST Pointing System is a pivotal innovation within the Cosmix ecosystem, designed to bridge the gap between traditional gaming (Web2) and the emerging Web3 space. It plays a crucial role in ensuring a seamless, zero-barrier entry for users unfamiliar with blockchain technologies, thereby enhancing the free-to-play aspects of Cosmix. Moreover, the $DUST system grants builders greater flexibility in structuring in-game mechanics and economies, acting as a regulatory buffer to maintain a balanced reward pool for the $COSMIX token without necessitating token inflation.

Distribution and Utility of $DUST Points: $DUST Points are awarded to players for their engagement and accomplishments within games, such as time spent actively playing and achieving specific milestones. These points serve multiple purposes, enhancing player characters stats and levels, and enabling the purchase of in-game items (as defined by game builders).

This system not only incentivizes gameplay and progression but also democratizes access to Cosmix offerings, removing any preliminary requirements for entry. Players from the Web2 domain can effortlessly transition into Cosmix, earning $DUST through play and utilizing it to enrich their gaming experience.

Builder Incentives and Game Development Flexibility: Builders, on the other hand, benefit from the $DUST system through active user engagement in their games. The system allows for the implementation of achievement thresholds, granting builders the discretion to tailor these metrics to fit their game’s unique dynamics and player base. This flexibility extends to the customization of in-game items purchasable with $DUST Points, giving builders control over how $DUST is circulated within their creations. All $DUST spent within a game flows directly to its builder or the owner of the Game Ownership NFT Contract (GOC’s), empowering them to set the terms for in-game expenditures and rewards.

Linking $DUST to $COSMIX Token Economy: The intrinsic value of $DUST in enhancing gameplay and accelerating progress means that some players may seek additional $DUST beyond what their gameplay alone can yield. To facilitate this, players can convert $COSMIX Tokens into $DUST, directly tying the demand for in-game enhancements to the overarching economy of the $COSMIX Token. This mechanism ensures that as the demand for $DUST increases, so too does the value and utility of the $COSMIX Token within the ecosystem, creating a symbiotic relationship between gameplay engagement and the economic vitality of Cosmix.
