# Karma Score

### **What is Karma?**

**Karma Score** is a gamified scoring system that measures and rewards long-term value added contributions by players, creators, and community members in Fishing Frenzy. 

It acts as the core loyalty metric that powers game perks, reward eligibility, and community status. 

***

### **Karma Calculation**

Every user’s Karma Score is made up of points earned (or lost) through a variety of actions. Each category is designed to reflect positive contribution, with weights that can be fine-tuned over time at an ecosystem level.

The factors that affect each users contribution are:

* **Staking** **$FISH**
* Add **liquidity** to $FISH / RON pool 
* Making in-game **purchases**
* **Buying, selling and transferring** $FISH 
* **Playing** the game
* **Creating** impactful and helpful content 
* **Staking founder pass**
* **Referring** others
* & potentially more in the future
