🧑NFT Characteristics
The NFT Characterstics are critical to how they earn NRG tokens, and how the NFTs function within the gamified ecosystem.
There are 4 key characteristics, Reputation, Speed, Luck and Stamina, the effects of these are explained here. The NFT also has a speciality, which doesn't have levels like the characteristics but will affect the earning power based on the content being watched.
Reputation
This is a major characteristic of NERD NFTs. The higher the Rep of your NFT, the higher the base rewards per video will be. It plays a huge part in deciding the earning power of an NFT.
During the initial version, the top level is level 15 for reputation, however, higher levels will become obtainable to users in the future that will come with higher base rewards. However, lower-level base rewards will decrease once more levels are unlocked. This is why users must endeavour to upgrade their NFT as efficiently and as quickly as possible.
Min Base Reward Table
Here are the current minimum base rewards for each Nerd's reputation level and rarity:
Please bear in mind these correspond to the absolute minimal number of tokens you can get and generally the actual number will be higher. Furthermore, token earnings per video will round to the nearest whole number.
Speed
Speed dictates how much an NFT will earn additionally when watching videos quickly. Quickly being, from when they were uploaded. Specifically in the first 30 minutes, a portion of all rewards will be pooled and attributed to those who can watch videos quickly. The higher your speed level, the more effective your NFT will be at earning from watching videos quickly.
The speed attribute is quite complex, primarily since YouTube posting times, which the attribute depends on, are not always accurately reflected on their page. This time discrepancy may sometimes result in the speed bonus not being applied.
This is essential for Creators, the more views a Creator amasses in the first 30 minutes from uploading, the more likely the video will perform well, as that's a key period of the algorithm to assess the quality of that video. So get your notifications turned on!
Luck
The NRG lottery takes place after every single registered view (assuming you are under your view cap for the day). Luck dictates your probability of winning it.
The win potentials are as follows:
🏆Platinum: 5,000 NRG Tokens
🥇Gold: 1,000 NRG Tokens
🥈Silver: 300 NRG Tokens
🥉Bronze: 100 NRG Tokens
The higher your level of luck, the more chance you will have at winning these lotteries and striking gold.
The Luck attribute skews the XP distribution depending on the level. The higher the Luck, the greater chance of receiving more XP for the watch.
In the future, luck will play a part in consumable fortune as well, consumables are coming in the future and will help users to upgrade their NFTs.
Stamina
The efficiency of repairing is affected by the higher your NFT is in Stamina. It affects the value you will get when repairing your NFT. The following table shows how the different levels of stamina affect the repairing process for your NFT.
Here's the updated markdown with the Iconic nerds included next to Rare & Legendary:

Specialities
The speciality will boost earnings to an NFT if it's watching a specific category of videos, the current boost is 10%. For example, an NFT which has the Gaming speciality would receive a boost when watching gaming videos. The types of specialities are below:
Gaming
Sports
Lifestyle
Challenge & Comedy
Tech
Educational
Music
XP
After every valid video watch users will earn XP, which will be automatically applied to one of their NFT attributes randomly. The more videos you watch, the more XP points you will accumulate, allowing you to level up and unlock new features
The longer the video the user watches, the more XP they will receive. Watching longer videos will take more time, but could create bigger NRG rewards in the future as the Nerd levels up faster.
XP is calculated around an upper and lower boundary, with the length of the video watched and the luck attribute factored into the total XP amount. The watch multiplier is based on a video duration of 900 seconds (15 mins = 1.25x), any video watched that has a length lower than this value will be reduced proportionally (e.g. a 450 seconds video will receive a 0.625x multiplier on the final XP amount).
You can greatly boost your XP by getting the Season Pass.
