Use Swapscout to Earn More Merits
Blockscout is making blockchain exploration more engaging through our new Merits Program, which rewards users for learning and using block explorer tools. One of the easiest ways to earn Merits? Using Swapscout, our dedicated swap and bridge application.
What are Blockscout Merits?
The Merits Program gamifies block exploration, making it more interactive, fun, and rewarding. Users earn Merits through various activities including daily logins, completing quests, and using our block explorer tools. To get started, simply sign up on our Ethereum block explorer to receive your first 100 Merits (or 200 if using a referral code).
Earning Merits with Swapscout
Swapscout users automatically earn Merits for their trading activity. Merit distribution is based on:
- Total 24-hour trading volume
- Generated fees
- Number of unique users
Merits are calculated and distributed automatically at the end of each day (00:00 UTC). Each user receives a percentage of the daily Merit allocation based on their trading activity, with minimum and maximum thresholds set at 1% and 10% respectively of the daily pool.
Your earned Merits will be automatically added to your account at the end of each day, viewable through your Merits dashboard.
