FOMO Pulse Pool

Daily Spark of Activity

  • Concept: A carnival at the end of the day, a behavioral economics design to combat inertia

One of the biggest challenges in sustaining an ecosystem is combating user inertia and intermittent capital inflows. The FOMO Pulse Pool is a sophisticated solution to this challenge. It transforms the end of each day from a dull ending into a collective celebration filled with suspense and surprise.

"FOMO" (Fear of Missing Out) is a powerful human psychological drive. This pool, through its mechanism design, channels this psychology positively into ecosystem development. It ignites once a day, precisely capturing marginal energy that hesitates and waits throughout the day before ultimately deciding to act at the end. This ensures that the network's energy inflow curve is as smooth and dynamic as possible every day, thus maintaining the ecosystem's constant temperature.

  • Mechanism: Timed triggering, rewards the last train

The FOMO Pulse Pool's rules are simple and straightforward, like a daily biological clock, cultivating user behavioral habits.

1. Fund Pool Accumulation: Daily Surprise Pool

Source: 0.5% of all user minted funds are allocated to this pool daily.

Distribution Rules:

General: Every day at 5:00 PM (UTC+8), funds in the pool are automatically distributed to up to the last 50 orders staked that day.

Exception: If the total number of orders placed on a given day is less than 50, the daily prize pool will be divided equally among all orders.

2. Self-Reinforcing Mechanism:

50% of the daily reward will be distributed immediately, and the remaining 50% will automatically accumulate into the next day's FOMO Pulse Pool.

This design makes the next day's prize pool more attractive on days with lower traffic, thereby self-regulating and stimulating subsequent participation.

  • Design Philosophy: Ritual and Instant Feedback Are Catalysts of Activity

FOMO Pulse Pool is a classic behavioral economics model, with a profound and practical design philosophy:

Creating a Daily Ritual: Lottery draws at fixed times strongly tie user behavior to the daily closing, forming a community ritual full of anticipation. This sense of ritual is a powerful tool for enhancing user engagement.

Leveraging FOMO to Promote Decision-Making: Knowing that participating near the deadline could earn additional rewards can motivate hesitant users to make positive decisions at the end of the day, effectively reducing procrastination.

Smoothing the Inflow Curve: Under traditional models, capital inflows can be unevenly distributed throughout the day. This mechanism encourages concentrated inflows in the latter half of the day, especially near the end of the day, thereby smoothing the inflow curve throughout the day and stabilizing the ecosystem's energy flow.

A Bridge from Marginal Participation to Deep Inclusion

FOMO Pulse Pool's long-term value lies in its role as a bridge, guiding users from superficial engagement to deep engagement.

1.Low-barrier initial attraction: For new users or those on the fence, the "get a reward for catching the last train" offer is a simple, engaging, and low-barrier initial engagement point. This effectively reduces the psychological resistance to first-time participation.

2.Converting to habitual participation: Once a user takes their first action for the FOMO reward, they've taken a crucial first step. They're then more likely to explore other aspects of the system (such as static returns and the pulse network), transforming from a one-time participant into a habitual co-builder.

3.Enhancing community dynamics and interest: This mechanism provides the community with ongoing daily conversations ("Did you catch the last train today?"), adding interest and dynamism to the community and making the ecosystem appear more vibrant.

The FOMO Pulse Pool, while small, is a crucial addition to the ecosystem's operations. Like a delicate pendulum, it strikes daily, reminding and motivating the community to stay active.

In the daily excitement of the FOMO Pulse Pool, hesitation turns to action, and waiting turns to participation. It's not just a source of extra rewards; it's the magical spark that keeps the network's pulse strong, filling every day with anticipation and energy. Here, the end of each day heralds the passionate beginning of a new round of construction.
