The RTG platform going live is more structurally interesting than it looks at first glance, especially in how @Arcium is framing incentives and recognition. RTGs are not an airdrop mechanic. They are a contribution weighted recognition system that prioritizes long term alignment, context, and trust over transactional activity. That is a meaningful departure from points farming and short term incentive extraction. Wave 1 focused on earliest contributors who helped shape the network before incentives existed. Wave 2 expands the surface area with recurring RTGs rolling out weekly, including offchain today and onchain coming next. Gated RTGs further segment access based on sustained contribution rather than wallet behavior. This formalizes social and technical capital inside crypto systems without reducing everything to volume or fees. RTGs represent a shift from speculation driven rewards toward alignment driven networks. Worth watching closely.(Whale Factor)
