《Suggestions for Earning $Virtual Points》

Recently, I've been frequently receiving private messages and comments, mainly focusing on these two questions:

1. How should newcomers get started in the $Virtual ecosystem?
2. I'm a $Virtual participant, but I feel like I'm earning points too slowly. How can I earn points faster?

Here, based on my actual experience, I'll discuss the current participation methods, how to efficiently earn points, and how newcomers can get started. The recommended methods are listed in descending order of priority.

Method 1: Participate in the new Geneses presale of $Virtual, and then buy some after the opening and hold it (remember to manually claim it every day).
Recommendation index: Five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I specifically tested this method in the recent $ROAST presale.
Initial conditions: Two wallets with the same existing token holdings, totaling about 600 $Virtual + about 400u worth of ecosystem token holdings.
Each wallet holds 180u of $BIOS, 120u of $NYKO, 50u of $PTAI, and 30u of $RWAI, all held long-term.
① Wallet 1 did not participate in the @burnieio presale and manually received 340 diamond hand points.
② Wallet 2 participated in the @burnieio presale and also bought 100 Vir at the opening, manually receiving 4236 diamond hand points.
Therefore, the comparison is very obvious. Participating in the new Geneses presale and buying some instead of selling the presale allocation can earn a lot of diamond hand points.

Another problem for newcomers is the lack of initial points. This is easy to solve: just keep $Virtual in your wallet for one day. So the path should be:
Put $Virtual in your wallet for one day -> Participate in the latest Geneses presale -> Find an opportunity to buy a little at the opening -> HODL -> Manually Claim every day

The only drawback of this method is that the points expire, currently in about 12 days, which is shorter than before. Remember to participate in new presales as soon as possible to use them up.

Method 2: Earn points by promoting Yaps on Twitter
Recommendation index: Five stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This method of earning points is indeed good, as it is equivalent to converting your influence into points.
Many newcomers and whales have told me that their influence is small and they are afraid of not getting many points.

I personally think this is not exclusive to large KOLs. Everyone has a chance.
An important reason is that $Virtual has now connected to @KaitoAI, so there are actually some ways to operate.

Here are three suggestions for users with fewer followers:
1. After writing the content, remember to @ mention relevant AIs, such as @aixbt_agent, @taocat_agent, @Vader_AI_.
These AIs themselves will also be included in Kaito's statistics, and attracting their comments and interactions will definitely increase your score a lot.

2. After writing the content, give it to Grok and optimize it according to his suggestions.
Twitter's current push flow is based on Grok, and getting Grok's approval will inevitably make it easier to get better push flow.

3. Try to write the content in a structured and detailed manner, and it is best to include pictures and text. While being pushed, it is also easy to get more interaction from other people, and maybe even increase your followers.

Method 3: Earn points by holding $Virtual tokens
Recommendation index: ⭐⭐⭐
The advantage of these points is that they are permanent, but the disadvantage is that you need to hold a lot of $Virtual in your wallet, because this is definitely tiered. The more you hold, the more you get.
I personally don't particularly recommend this because it does require a lot of points. From my experience, if you only have a few thousand $Virtual, the points given are really not enough to look at, maybe only two or three hundred points per day.
But this is indeed the simplest starting method for participating in Method 1, that is, first get a little bit of points, and then use the Method 1 plan to get Holder points.

Method 4: Stake $Vader or other stakeable tokens
Recommendation index: ⭐⭐
I staked 30,000 $Vader, which is currently worth about 1,300u at the current price.
So how many points did I get? As shown in the figure, only 90 points, which is almost nothing. I feel that staking this part is the worst of the worst. It is estimated that whales will enjoy it, so I don't recommend small funds to do this.

Moreover, once you stake, you can't take it out for at least thirty days. I feel that it is really better to use this part of the money to participate in presales or get more points by holding some new tokens.
Perhaps the only advantage is that this part is also permanent and only suitable for whales.

Other possible ways (not tested):
Recently, I also observed that some older $Virtual ecosystem tokens with smaller market caps suddenly rose. It is speculated that someone is trying to buy and raise the market cap to try to farm points.
I haven't tested this aspect. I don't know if some of the previous tokens can also be counted into the points. The specific effect is not clear. You can study it yourself.

Summary:
1. As I said in the article, the acquisition of points is tiered.
So the core is to have more holdings + hold for a long time.

2. Try not to transfer coins back and forth. After the cooling system is upgraded, the management of the association between wallets is relatively strict. If it is determined that there are too many transfers to farm points, you will have no points for nine days, which will be very uncomfortable.

3. The best way to get the latest $Virtual content is to follow @virtuals_io and also be sure to follow the founder's Twitter @everythingempt0. Sometimes the content posted by the founder is even earlier.
