Arkreen Patch & Prosper Campaign: Revitalizing the Ecosystem
Introduction:
Today, we want to announce the Arkreen Patch & Prosper Campaign, a first combined action plan to revive and refine the whole Arkreen ecosystem, addressing different bottlenecks.
Better Together: Your Ecosystem, Elevated!
We’ve been listening closely to your feedback and share your desire for a stronger, healthier user ecosystem. While some of the larger challenges will take time to address fully, we’re excited to share that we’re implementing seven targeted fixes designed to have a meaningful, immediate impact.
This initiative, which we’re calling the "Patch & Prosper" Campaign, reflects our commitment to continuous improvement and transparency. The fixes we’re rolling out focus on addressing key areas of concern and laying the foundation for future advancements.
What’s included in this campaign?
We’ve identified seven impactful updates that improve usability, address critical pain points, and enhance the overall experience. While each change might seem modest on its own, together they represent an important step forward in building a healthier and more user-focused ecosystem.
What to expect:
• Realistic, measurable improvements in specific areas based on your top priorities.
• A commitment to honest communication. No overpromises, no distractions, just genuine efforts to address your needs.
• A stepping stone toward bigger, longer-term goals as we continue to evolve and grow.
• Some things are also tests or small pilots, to see what works or not and adjust them over time, change things, add things or even remove things. We want to develop and refine with the community.
We know that trust is earned through action, not words. That’s why we’re focused on making these seven changes a meaningful milestone in the journey toward a better
We want to hear your thoughts as we roll out these updates. Your feedback is invaluable and will continue to guide our efforts moving forward. Together, let’s build the ecosystem you deserve.

Retroactive Value Booster
Introducing Our Value Booster Pilot Program
We value the trust and feedback of our community, and we’re always looking for ways to improve your experience with our products. In response to concerns about the rewards on Remote Miners purchased last year, we’re rolling out an initial pilot program to address this issue.
What’s Happening?
To test solutions for boosting the value of these miners, we’ve launched a small test group of eligible users. This first phase includes miners purchased during a limited timeframe: 1st July 2024 to 10th July 2024. Users in this group will be offered a one-time claimable reward designed to enhance remote miner value.
The Reward Participants will receive 10 Lite-miners per qualifying Remote Miner, providing an initial symbolic boost to value at no additional cost. While this is an incremental improvement, it is an important first step in our efforts to provide better value to our users.
Why a Test Group?
This pilot program allows us to evaluate feedback and measure the impact on network performance. If the response is positive and the network load remains within acceptable limits, we’ll look to expand this initiative to include a broader group of users. We will estimate if this approach is feasible, or time windows or rewards have to be adjusted. The next rounds might look completely different or only change slightly, but are aimed at bringing quality to the users.
Looking ahead, we understand that this is only the beginning. Your satisfaction and trust are our priorities, and we’re committed to making meaningful improvements over time. We appreciate your patience and participation as we continue to learn and grow together.
When will it start?
We are aiming already at the end of April for the first test pilot release, which is rapidly approaching; however, please note that final checks may introduce a slight delay.
Swap for Buybacks Pool
AKRE kWh Swap & Buyback Pool
As part of our ongoing efforts to promote ecosystem health, we are pleased to introduce a new feature: the AKRE kWh Swap & Buyback Pool. This initiative allows users to swap AKRE for kWh at the current market price, without selling it to the market, supporting ecosystem stability and sustainable value development.
Details of the First Round:
• Pool Allocation: 200,000 kWh (200k)
• Process: First-Come-First-Served
• Limits: No restrictions on the amount swapped per individual until the pool is fully utilized.
Eligibility Requirements:
• Users need to own five or more remote or light miners (excluding CSP and Smart Plug miners).
This initial round is being implemented as a trial. If the program yields positive results, we plan to refine and repeat it, with potential adjustments to pool size and eligibility criteria based on community feedback.
It's worth noting that this initiative goes beyond a simple swap; it also serves as a buyback mechanism, aligning with our goal of fostering long-term token value growth in the ecosystem.
When will it launch?
We're excited to share that our targeted release date is set for early in May, which also marks the first Pool Allocation for it. After the Pool is depleted, we will evaluate the data and announce the next period.
Adaptive Play to Impact Reward Pool
Update: Introducing a Scalable Reward Pool Model
A significant enhancement to our reward system that ensures fairness, sustainability, and engagement for everyone in our community. After listening to feedback and closely analyzing participation trends, we’re adopting a new scalable reward pool model tailored to better reflect activity levels and energy offset achievements.
What’s Changing?
The daily reward pool will now adjust dynamically based on the total energy consumed for on-chain offsets. This means:
• For every 1 kilowatt-hour (KWh) offset, 1 credit will be added to the daily reward pool.
• The reward pool will scale up naturally with increased activity but will be capped at 100,000 credits to maintain balance.
For example:
• On days with a total of 23,000 KWh offset, the reward pool will be 23,000 credits.
• On more active days with 123,000 KWh offset, the reward pool will cap at 100,000 credits.
Why This Change Is Great for Everyone
• Fairness: Rewards will align more closely with actual community participation and contributions.
• Sustainability: A capped model ensures long-term viability while scaling proportionately with activity.
• Engagement: This flexible system encourages continued involvement by adapting to varying participation levels.
• Value Retention: The loyal participants from the first day's contribution are more meaningful.
Starting: Beginning of May 2025, the new pool structure will be active
We are aiming to update the structure very early in May, the update notice of it will basically happen after the change passes the checks and is put into production on live servers.
Looking Ahead
We believe this update brings greater equity and excitement to our reward system, supporting the growth of our community while recognizing individual contributions. We’re eager to see how this change inspires even more activity and collaboration.
Patches and Fixes
This section will cover minor changes or fixes. The expectation here is to bring change but not have too high expectations of individual improvement, and rather aim for traction by combining with others.
Milestone Rewards Node Round 1
The completion timeline for the node rally, specifically those sold in Round 1, has been significantly extended, resulting in delayed reward payouts for the "finishing line" of the rally. To address this, the campaign will switch to distribute rewards upon the completion of individual nodes, rather than waiting for the completion of the entire rally round. Going forward, there will be timely announcements for each completed node that provide valuable opportunities for public relations, visibility on social media, and community engagement.
Starting 1 May 2025, all nodes from round 1 sales will be announced within 48 hours after completion, and the bonus reward will be distributed within an additional 48 hours after the announcement.
The already completed nodes up to now will be spread out their announcements over the coming days to honor these milestones but also create relevant spread out marketing about it.
The credit rewards actually have already been distributed to the already completed nodes from Round 1!
For this reason, and the overlapping event structure with the soft pre-release, the target release date is the end of April, but in effect, it is already live!
Flexible Bonus Luck Reward Days
We’re thrilled to announce a game-changing initiative: Bonus Reward Days! This exciting campaign is designed to celebrate your efforts and amplify your rewards, with 10x multipliers for eligible remote miners and CSP remote miners. Here’s everything you need to know to make the most of these special days:
What Are Bonus Reward Days?
On select days, we’ll be rolling out 10x rewards for users who meet specific criteria. These rewards will be factored upon each relevant segment and sent additionally. The best part? Each Bonus Reward Day is designed to reward unique actions and behaviors, making every event a fresh opportunity to win big.
How Do They Work?
Eligibility:
The qualification criteria will vary between three alternate options:
• ART Day: Rewards for issuing minimum 0.001 ART.
• GreenBTC Day: Rewards for playing GreenBTC with minimum 50 kWh.
• PGP Offset Day: Rewards for offsetting a minimum of 0.1 kWh on PGP Smart Plugs.
(These three requirements are not cumulative conditions, only one per day will be targeted)
Timing:
Rewards are earned only on the day the criteria are met.
Frequency:
Bonus Reward Days will occur at least twice a month, and sometimes there will even be a surprise drop!
Surprise Mechanics:
We’ve added a twist to keep things exciting:
- Pre-Announced Days: Some Bonus Reward Days will be announced ahead of time, so you can prepare to qualify. For example: “Issue ART tomorrow to unlock the next Bonus Reward Day!”
- Retroactive Loyalty Drops: Other times, we’ll surprise you by announcing Bonus Reward Days after they happen! We will use a transparent randomizing method to have these days picked, so no manipulation can occur, and we will explain it at the launch of this campaign.
Imagine receiving the message: “Congratulations! Everyone who issued 0.05 ART or more on May 21st has qualified for 10x rewards—it’s already been airdropped!”
This balance ensures that you’ll always have the chance to participate while keeping every Bonus Reward Day fresh and engaging.
Why Should You Participate?
• Maximize Rewards: Earn 10x the usual rewards for your efforts.
• Encourage Consistency: Build habits that lead to success, and get rewarded for them.
• Stay Connected: Whether it’s pre-announced or a surprise drop, there’s always a reason to stay engaged.
When will this feature start?
The activation is aimed at the end of April. For the first "Bonus Luck" day to actually happen, it will require some time. We will inform you about the date picking logic when it comes to it. The first one will be a surprise!
Next Steps:
Keep an eye on our communication channels for announcements and updates. Whether it’s a pre-announced Bonus Reward Day or a surprise loyalty drop, we’ll ensure you never miss a chance to unlock incredible rewards.

Future-Proof Framework
This section will cover items that have no instant effect or are a solution to historical issues (which have to be addressed as priority) The expectation here is to bring change for the future, but also take a step back and realize that this will not fix past problems.
On purchase, automated micro buy-back + burn
Strengthening the Network Through Remote Miner Contributions
At the heart of our mission lies the health and sustainability of our network, and we're thrilled to announce a new initiative designed to boost both, ,with your help!
For every remote miner purchased outside of the affiliate and referral systems, we’re introducing a $1 buyback and burn mechanism. This means that with every eligible purchase, $1 will be used to buy back tokens from the market and permanently remove them from circulation. By doing so, every non-affiliate remote miner purchase will contribute directly to network health and long-term value stability.
Why This Matters to You
When you purchase a remote miner, you’re not just securing rewards—you’re becoming an integral part of an effort to strengthen and enhance the entire network. This mechanism is a bold step forward, reflecting a collective sacrifice of approximately 10% of the miner’s revenue potential for the greater good of the ecosystem. But of course, your Remote Miner Rewards will be untouched and remain the same. This is covered by the network.
What You’ll See:
• A Direct Impact on Network Health: Your purchases help reduce circulating supply, promoting long-term stability and sustainability.
• Commitment to Transparency: We’re starting with a manual buyback and burn process executed monthly, and will communicate results openly with the community.
• Future Real-Time Insights: As we grow, we plan to automate this system, allowing you to track your contributions to the network's health in real time.
When will it start?
We are aiming for the end of May for the first cycle start. We will release an announcement at the start of enrollment. This requires some balancing that ties into further improvements.
What’s Next?
For the next five months, we’ll roll out this buyback and burn process on a monthly basis. Once development resources become available, we’ll invest in automating this system to make the impact even more immediate and visible to all users.
This initiative reflects our commitment to building a more resilient and balanced ecosystem, together with you, our valued community. Your support is pivotal, and we’re excited to take this step forward with you.
Perpetual Power
This section will cover very random and small things that might have no effect regarding the key problem analysis, but are of a cosmetic nature. So far, it only has one update, which is also not included in the 7 key updates.
Token Burner Community Role Collectible
Strengthening Engagement Through Token Burning Rewards
We share a significant new addition to our ecosystem aimed at boosting community participation and fostering a stronger sense of engagement. Introducing the Token Burner Community Role Collectible program. A creative initiative designed to reward token burning while celebrating our most active community members.
What’s Changing?
• Burner Wallet Introduction: We are implementing a public burner wallet/token-burning solution. This system will allow community members to burn tokens in a transparent and verifiable way.
• Reward Tiers: Users who participate in token burning will be eligible for tiered rewards based on the amount burned:
Bronze Tier: Burn 11k tokens to earn a unique Bronze NFT and the “Bronze Burner” role on Discord.
Silver Tier: Burn 77k tokens to unlock the Silver NFT and the exclusive “Silver Burner” role.
Gold Tier: Burn 222k tokens to claim the coveted Gold NFT and the prestigious “Gold Burner” role.
• Exclusive Collectibles: The NFTs are uniquely designed to reflect each tier and will include metadata for the burn amount.
• Community Recognition: Exclusive Discord roles come with added minor perks, where they will be more released as small surprises. But this is not about any value-based rewards. The expectation should be clear that this will go in a cosmetic or fun direction.
Why It Matters
This program not only incentivizes engagement but also fosters a deeper connection with the ecosystem. By offering these small fun rewards for contributions, we aim to:
• Recognize User Participation: Celebrate the efforts of our community members who actively engage in ecosystem-building.
• Encourage Healthy Activity: Token burning contributes to economic balancing within the ecosystem.
• Strengthen Community Bonds: Exclusive perks and collectibles encourage community interaction and pride.
When does it start?
The targeted release date is set for the end of May. This is a soft feature and will be attended to after the other priority and key features have been completed. It is still a good time to contribute feedback and more ideas from the community to refine it!
Next Steps
• The burner wallet will be defined, with rigorous testing to ensure reliability.
• NFT designs are in progress, and the reward system will be ready for rollout soon.
• Stay tuned for further details, including how to participate and the official launch date.
This initiative is just one of many efforts to enhance the vibrancy of our ecosystem. Thank you for your continued support and enthusiasm—together, let’s keep building!
