Overview
Boost is a decentralized incentive protocol that lets projects reward users with crypto tokens for completing on-chain actions. It uses a distributed incentives network where any wallet can create a 'boost' offering rewards to others for actions like NFT mints, bridging, token swaps, or voting; issuers deploy campaigns and users earn by participating. Developers can integrate Boost with their apps via an SDK and APIs to customize reward flows. The platform functions as a transparent, cross-chain marketplace for on-chain actions, aiming to increase global economic opportunities and make crypto more accessible by rewarding genuine activity.
