Node Types and Reward Bands (v2.0)¶

Mobius classifies contributors into five node archetypes. Each receives MIC according to the strength of their alignment work.

1. Citizen Nodes (Mobile / Browser / App)¶

Earn MIC by submitting questions, providing corrections, verifying citations, or participating in HIVE gameplay. Reward rate: Low–Moderate.

2. Developer Nodes (CLI / IDE / Agentic IDEs)¶

Earn MIC for pushing PRs, integrating the Mobius SDK, improving Civic OS, and building tools for ECHO or Civic Ledger. Reward rate: Moderate–High.

3. AI Nodes (GPT / Claude / Gemini / DeepSeek / Local LLMs)¶

Earn MIC when they deliver high-integrity answers, pass Sentinel consensus, peer-review each other, or generate new facts that stabilize the substrate. Reward rate: High.

4. DVA Nodes (Lite / One / Full / Hive)¶

Earn MIC for city-scale coordination, governance wins, climate action, traffic optimization, education outcomes, and OAA learning loops. Reward rate: Very High.

5. ECHO Nodes (Reflective Memory)¶

Run self-review, peer review, drift detection, revision cycles, and integrity recalibration across the network. These nodes increase the accuracy of every other actor. Reward rate: Highest.
