How You Earn

“You don’t earn by chasing. You earn by resonating.”

In the ADO Universe, earning TRN is not about grabbing attention. It’s about offering something that echoes—something that adds harmony to the Song.

You earn TRN when your actions help the Tree grow.

🌀 TRN Accrual is Organic

  • Your earnings are not instant. They grow over time, like fruit ripening.

  • Some Leaves earn TRN long after they're posted, when rediscovered.

  • Other Leaves decay if they never find resonance.

“TRN doesn’t reward noise. It rewards signal.”


🌳 Long-Term Value

  • Leaves that spark Stems generate TRN over time for both original creator and responders.

  • Branches that become long chains of dialogue reward originators, sharers, and contributors alike.

  • The AI Companion may spotlight your Leaves in others’ feeds if they align with emerging resonance patterns—leading to passive TRN earnings.


🛠️ Additional Earnings (Advanced)

  • Fruit Drops: Periodic bonuses from ADO DAO to high-engagement Leaves

  • Governance Bounties: Earn TRN for completing DAO-assigned tasks

  • Curation Bonuses: Earn a cut of TRN from Leaves you helped surface if they blossom

  • Mirror Quests: Missions issued by your AI that unlock rewards for reflection, growth, or contribution


📬 You Don’t Just Get Paid. You Get Mirrored.

All earnings are stored transparently and traced back to the actions that generated them. This gives you insight into your impact, your patterns, and your path forward.

“You grow what you water. And TRN is the water that remembers.”
