Contribution Mechanisms

The ecosystem incentivizes high-value contributions across three main roles, each with distinct integration and reward logic:

---

Data Providers

Structured data sources can be contributed to improve model training and real-time analytics. Examples include:

• On-chain data streams

• Enriched protocol metadata

• Market and sentiment APIs

Providers are compensated based on the utility and frequency of their data in agent executions and synthesis processes.

---

Evaluators

Human and automated evaluators assess the quality and performance of models and agent responses. Their tasks include:

• Ranking agent outputs

• Validating factual accuracy and coherence

• Stress-testing domain-specific queries

Evaluators earn rewards proportional to their contribution volume, consistency, and alignment with aggregate user feedback.

Intelligence Trainers

Contributors who help “train” the Trendence Mastermind Engine by submitting structured inputs, annotations, and domain-specific insights. Their data enhances the engine’s ability to route tasks, interpret context, and generate accurate, high-signal responses across use cases.

Typical contributions include:

• Identify which AI agents or models perform best for specific tasks to optimize routing and output quality.

• Trade rationale, risk assessment, and strategy annotations

• On-chain behavior tagging and narrative classification

• Reinforcement signals from real-world execution and agent usage

• Interpretation of trading indicators and technical analysis patterns

• Tokenomics trends (emissions, unlocks, velocity shifts) and macro context explanations

• Clarification of performance metrics across DeFi, RWA, and NFT sectors

Contributors are rewarded based on the downstream impact of their input - measured through routing accuracy, response quality improvements, and increased agent adoption.
