# Activity Points (AP)

One of the core features of Social Kingdom is the Activity Points (AP) system. AP is the basic unit for quantifying and evaluating users' social media activities.

### How to Earn AP

#### Twitter Activities

* Post: 10 AP
* Repost: 5 AP
* Reply: 8 AP

#### Quality Adjustment

Bonuses are added to earned AP based on the number of followers and engagement rate. For example, accounts with over 1000 followers can earn 20% more than the base AP.

### AP Earning Limits and Diminishing Returns

#### Daily Limit

1000 AP/day. This limit promotes healthy platform usage.

#### Diminishing Returns System

* First 100 AP: 100% efficiency (e.g., 100 tweets for 100 AP)
* Next 100 AP: 90% efficiency (e.g., 111 tweets for 100 AP)
* Following 100 AP: 80% efficiency (e.g., 125 tweets for 100 AP)

This mechanism encourages regular, moderate activity rather than continuous activity throughout the day.

### Importance of AP

1. **Contribution to Social Hashrate (SH)**: Earned AP is directly used in SH calculations. More AP leads to higher SH.
2. **Ranking System**: Weekly and monthly AP earning rankings are published, with special rewards for top performers.
3. **Unlocking Special Features**: Special platform features and benefits are unlocked based on cumulative AP.

### AP System Monitoring and Adjustment

* Unusual AP earning patterns are automatically detected and investigated to prevent fraudulent activities.
* AP earning rates are regularly reviewed and adjusted as necessary to maintain overall platform health.
