For users:

• Must have a desktop computer with internet access.
• You will also need to set up a testnet EVM wallet to perform transactions on Ethereum Sepolia Testnet or Arbitrum Sepolia Testnet.
• If your computer is not able to run a local AI model, you can use a free trial of Shinkai Hosting.
• You need to be able to use Galxe.

For developers:

• You will be accepted to the Developers Discord channel after sharing your GitHub public account for validation.
• Applications will be open at the start of Phase 2 and close at the end of the second week of Phase 3.

For content contributors:

• Same as a normal user (above).
• You should be able to have your computer running or use an external service like AWS S3 or Cloudflare R2 to provide a reliable subscription experience for users.

For high quality feedback:

• Be Specific and Detailed: Clearly describe the issue or feature, providing as much detail as possible.
• Provide Context: Explain what you were doing when you encountered the issue or felt a certain way about a feature.
• Use Visual Aids: Attach screenshots or screen recordings to illustrate your feedback.
• Include Device Details: Specify the device model and operating system you are using.
• For bug reporting, the first person to report a bug will receive the rewards. If the initial bug report is not clear enough and there is a subsequent report with more information that helps developers fix the issue, that report will also receive points. Depending on the severity of the bug, you can receive a ranking from 0 to 3.
• Well-described UX improvement feature requests are encouraged.
