EVT Contribution Season 3 Begins — SyFu : Payment Data DePIN

90-Day Reward Lock and the New Commitment Lock

SyFu Mainnet β is live, and Breed is now available.

EVT is a utility token used across SyFu’s GameFi experience, including Breed and lifespan recovery.

SyFu uses a dual-token model in which SFT and EVT serve different roles:

SFT: The ecosystem token that supports long-term value and contribution across SyFu
EVT: The utility token obtained, used, and locked through daily gameplay to drive circulation

Using EVT in the game matters. Locking it for a set period is also an important contribution to the EVT ecosystem and SyFu as a whole.

This contribution is measured through the Contribution Score, one of the factors used to determine future SFT allocations.

EVT Contribution Season 3 introduces a 90-day Reward Lock. In addition to Contribution Score, it offers TAIYAKI (Uncommon) for Breed and White TAIYAKI drawing entries for eligible Genesis holders.

We are also launching Commitment Lock, a permanent program that recognizes longer-term EVT Locks through Contribution Score.

Two EVT Lock Programs

Season 3 Reward Lock

A limited-time, 90-day Reward program.

Application window: Opens at a time announced separately and remains open for 72 hours
Lock period: 90 days
Application unit: 250 EVT
Account limit: 3,000 EVT
TAIYAKI (Uncommon): 1 for every 250 EVT
White TAIYAKI drawing: Available to Genesis holders who meet all requirements
Contribution Score: 30 points per day for every 250 EVT

Commitment Lock

A permanent program that recognizes longer-term EVT Locks through Contribution Score.

Opens: After all initial and waitlist Reward Lock processing is complete. Once open, users can Lock at any time
Lock periods: 90 / 180 / 360 days
Lock unit: 250 EVT
Account limit: 10,000 EVT in total active Season 3 Reward Locks and Commitment Locks
TAIYAKI (Uncommon): None
White TAIYAKI drawing: Not eligible
Contribution Score: 30 / 36 / 45 points per day for every 250 EVT, depending on the Lock period

Neither program allows early unlocking or automatic renewal.

The combined account limit for active Season 3 Reward Locks and Commitment Locks is 10,000 EVT. When a Lock expires and capacity becomes available, users may add a new Commitment Lock within that capacity. Each new Lock is managed separately from the time it becomes active.

Your Lock Record, Preserved as a Badge

EVT locked through Season 3 Reward Lock and Commitment Lock will be recorded through Badges. The following three achievements are eligible:

Participation: One eligible Lock of at least 250 EVT for at least 90 days becomes active
Volume: One eligible Lock of at least 1,000 EVT becomes active
360-day commitment: The Badge evolves as the cumulative EVT amount across 360-day Locks that have become active reaches 1,000 / 3,000 / 5,000 / 7,000 EVT

Eligibility is determined when a Lock becomes active, not when an application or allocation is completed.

The 1,000 EVT volume achievement must be reached in a single Lock. Multiple Locks are not combined. For the 360-day achievement, new 360-day Locks started after earlier Locks expire are added to the cumulative total.

Locks expire. But the record of how much EVT you locked, and for how long, remains through your Badge.

EVT Contribution Season 3: Key Terms

Lock period: 90 days
Type: Reward Lock with no early unlock
Eligibility: All users who have activated their SyFu account and created a SyFu Wallet
Application unit: 250 EVT
Account limit: 3,000 EVT
Total Season 3 Reward Lock capacity: Up to 300,000 EVT
Application window: 72 hours
Allocation method: Not first-come, first-served
If applications exceed 300,000 EVT: Staged random allocation by account
Partial allocations may occur

Applying earlier within the 72-hour window does not affect the allocation result.

Season 3 is separate from Seasons 1 and 2. Locks from previous Seasons do not count toward the Season 3 account limit of 3,000 EVT. Previous Season participation and previously received TAIYAKI do not affect the number of TAIYAKI granted in Season 3.

From Application to Reward Lock

1. Apply During the 72-Hour Window

Use the official Season 3 application form to request an amount in units of 250 EVT.

You do not need to hold EVT when you apply.

Only apply if you intend to Lock the allocated amount by the deadline and expect to have the required EVT available when the Lock is executed.

Apply only for an amount you can actually Lock, including if you receive a partial allocation.

The final allocated amount must exactly match the amount you Reward Lock. You cannot Lock more or less than the final allocated amount.

Applications cannot be changed or canceled after submission. Check all details before submitting.

If multiple applications are submitted for the same SyFu account, only the earliest submission is valid. All later submissions are invalid and cannot be used to change the requested amount.

Only an incorrectly entered email address may be corrected during the application window through a ticket in the official SyFu Discord. The requested amount cannot be changed or canceled.

2. Allocation

If valid applications total 300,000 EVT or less, each valid application will receive its requested amount.

If applications exceed 300,000 EVT, valid accounts will be placed in a random order and allocations will proceed in rounds:

In the first round, each account receives up to 250 EVT
If capacity remains, accounts that requested at least 500 EVT receive another 250 EVT
The same order repeats until each account reaches its requested amount or the total Season 3 limit of 300,000 EVT is reached

For example, if you apply for 3,000 EVT and receive an allocation of 1,750 EVT, you must Lock the full 1,750 EVT by the deadline. You will receive 7 TAIYAKI (Uncommon).

3. Manually Execute the Reward Lock

After the application window closes, final allocations will be calculated and displayed on the Claim site.

The amount shown on the Claim site is your final allocated amount. Individual result notifications will not be sent.

The allocation display start time will be announced through an in-app notice and the official SyFu Discord.

Users who receive an allocation must Reward Lock the full amount within 72 hours of the officially announced display start time.

Only the exact final allocated amount can be Reward Locked
You must have the full amount of available EVT when you execute the Lock
If the Lock is not completed by the deadline, the allocation expires

4. One Waitlist Reallocation

A single waitlist reallocation will take place only if applications exceed the Season 3 capacity, a drawing is required, and some allocated EVT is not locked by the deadline.

Only users who applied during the original application window are eligible. No additional applications will be accepted.

Selected waitlist users will have 48 hours from the waitlist announcement to complete their Lock.

The 90-day Reward Lock period begins separately for each user when their manual Lock becomes active. There is no single shared start date.

If You Do Not Complete the Lock

Once the allocation display start time has been officially announced, failing to Lock the full allocated amount by the deadline will be treated as a non-completion, and the allocation will expire.

The following are not treated as non-completions:

Receiving no allocation in the drawing
The unallocated portion of a partial allocation
An application invalidated before allocation
A Lock that fails because of a confirmed SyFu system issue or operational error

A Season 3 non-completion may affect allocation decisions in future capped EVT Contribution Seasons, including a lower allocation limit.

Accounts with two or more non-completions in capped Seasons from Season 2 onward will, in principle, be ineligible for the initial application window of the next capped EVT Contribution Season.

TAIYAKI (Uncommon): A Season-Only Incentive for Breed

Season 3 Reward Lock grants 1 TAIYAKI (Uncommon) for every 250 EVT successfully locked.

250 EVT: 1
1,000 EVT: 4
3,000 EVT: 12

All TAIYAKI (Uncommon) will be added to SyFu Game at once when the Reward Lock becomes active.

Now that Breed is available in Mainnet β, this Season 3 incentive gives more users a chance to create a new MANEKINEKO.

White TAIYAKI Drawing for Eligible Genesis Holders

Breed using White TAIYAKI (Uncommon) is eligible for the Elite MANEKINEKO drawing.

In Season 3, Genesis NFT holders who meet every required condition may enter the White TAIYAKI drawing. Simply holding a Genesis NFT does not automatically make an account eligible.

Hold a Genesis, Reward Lock EVT, and continue restoring MANEKINEKO lifespan and using Breed. Together, these actions open a special path toward the chance to create an Elite.

White TAIYAKI Distribution Cap

The total Season 3 White TAIYAKI distribution cap will be based on the final total amount of active Season 3 Reward Locks, after expired allocations and the waitlist reallocation are reflected.

The final total means the total amount of Reward Locks active after all initial and waitlist Reward Lock processing is complete.

The final total and the White TAIYAKI distribution cap will be confirmed after all Reward Lock processing and announced before the first drawing.

The cap reaches 150 White TAIYAKI at a final total of 200,000 EVT. Below 200,000 EVT, it is calculated proportionally and rounded down:

White TAIYAKI distribution cap
= min(150, floor(final active Season 3 Reward Lock total × 150 ÷ 200,000))

Examples:

50,000 EVT active: 37
100,000 EVT active: 75
150,000 EVT active: 112
184,250 EVT active: 138
200,000 EVT or more active: 150

The Season 3 distribution cap will be divided between the five recurring drawings and the Final drawing at a ratio as close as possible to 2:1.

Recurring drawings: Distributed as evenly as possible across all five drawings
Final drawing: The remaining amount after the recurring drawing allocation
Season 3 total: Up to 150

Examples:

Final total: 150,000 EVT
112 White TAIYAKI in total: 15 in each recurring drawing, 75 across all five / 37 in the Final drawing
Final total: 184,250 EVT
138 White TAIYAKI in total: 18–19 in each recurring drawing, 92 across all five / 46 in the Final drawing
Final total: 200,000 EVT or more
150 White TAIYAKI in total: 20 in each recurring drawing, 100 across all five / 50 in the Final drawing

The cap for each drawing will be announced after the final active Season 3 Reward Lock total is confirmed and before the first drawing.

If fewer eligible recipients are selected than the cap in a recurring drawing, the unused amount will roll over to the next drawing. Any amount remaining after the Final drawing will not be distributed and will remain unissued.

EVT in Commitment Lock does not count toward the White TAIYAKI distribution cap or drawing entries.

Recurring Drawing Eligibility

At each snapshot, an account must meet all of the following conditions:

Have an active Season 3 Reward Lock
Hold at least one Genesis in SyFu Game
Have restored a cumulative 33% or more of MANEKINEKO lifespan during the 42 days immediately before the snapshot

The first drawing also uses the 42-day period immediately before its snapshot. Lifespan recovery completed before Season 3 begins will count if it falls within that period.

Lifespan recovery is aggregated at the SyFu account level.

Additional Requirement for the Final Drawing

The Final drawing requires the three conditions above plus:

Complete at least four successful Breeds during the Season 3 period.

In this article, the Season 3 period begins when final allocations appear on the Claim site and the initial Reward Lock window opens. It ends at the Final drawing snapshot.

Drawing Entries and Selection Limit

1 entry for every 250 EVT in Season 3 Reward Lock
Up to 12 entries at 3,000 EVT
Each account can receive no more than 1 White TAIYAKI in each drawing
Previous recipients may enter later drawings again if they still meet the requirements
EVT in Commitment Lock does not count toward White TAIYAKI drawing entries

White TAIYAKI is distributed by drawing. Meeting the requirements does not guarantee selection.

Drawing Schedule

All White TAIYAKI eligibility snapshots take place at 00:00 UTC.

Snapshot 1: August 14, 2026, 00:00 UTC
Snapshot 2: August 28, 2026, 00:00 UTC
Snapshot 3: September 11, 2026, 00:00 UTC
Snapshot 4: September 25, 2026, 00:00 UTC
Snapshot 5: October 9, 2026, 00:00 UTC
Final snapshot: October 23, 2026, 00:00 UTC

Results are scheduled to be announced sequentially from 12:00 UTC, three calendar days after each snapshot. The Final drawing is separate from the five recurring drawings.

Snapshot 1 assumes that all initial and waitlist Reward Lock processing has been completed. If the snapshot must be changed because processing is still underway, SyFu will announce the change in advance.

Contribution Score

Contribution Score measures contribution to the SyFu ecosystem.

Season 3 Reward Lock adds 30 points per day for every 250 EVT locked, based on the Lock amount and duration.

250 EVT: 30 points per day / 2,700 points over 90 days
1,000 EVT: 120 points per day / 10,800 points over 90 days
3,000 EVT: 360 points per day / 32,400 points over 90 days

Contribution Score is one of the factors used to determine future SFT allocations.

Commitment Lock: A Permanent Program for Long-Term Contribution

Commitment Lock is separate from Season 3. It is a permanent program for locking EVT over a chosen period and building Contribution Score.

Its full details are being announced with Season 3, but it will open only after all Season 3 allocation, initial Reward Lock, and waitlist Reward Lock processing is complete. The exact opening time will be announced separately.

Once open, users may Lock at any time in units of 250 EVT and choose 90, 180, or 360 days.

90 days: 30 points per day / 2,700 points total
180 days: 36 points per day / 6,480 points total
360 days: 45 points per day / 16,200 points total

These figures apply to a Lock of 250 EVT.

The 90-day option uses the same daily rate as Season 3.

The 180-day and 360-day options apply a duration multiplier to the daily Contribution Score, recognizing a longer period without early unlocking and a longer-term commitment to the EVT ecosystem.

180 days: 1.20× the 90-day rate
360 days: 1.50× the 90-day rate

Commitment Lock Terms

Lock unit: 250 EVT
Early unlock: Not available
Automatic renewal: None
TAIYAKI (Uncommon): None
White TAIYAKI drawing: Not eligible
Combined account limit for active Season 3 Reward Locks and Commitment Locks: 10,000 EVT

The 10,000 EVT limit applies to all active Season 3 Reward Locks and Commitment Locks at that time. Expired Locks do not count.

For example, while 3,000 EVT is active in Season 3 Reward Lock, up to 7,000 EVT may be added to Commitment Lock.

An unallocated Season 3 request will not automatically move to Commitment Lock. Once Commitment Lock opens, choose the Lock period and amount yourself.

Each user’s Commitment Lock period begins when their Lock is completed.

Important Information

Lock Terms

Season 3 Reward Lock and Commitment Lock cannot be unlocked early after they become active. Locked EVT cannot be used for Breed, lifespan recovery, or other in-game actions until the Lock expires.
Each user’s 90-day Season 3 Reward Lock begins when their manual Lock becomes active. There is no shared start date.
The Season 3 Reward Lock account limit is 3,000 EVT. Season 1 and Season 2 Locks do not count toward this limit.
The combined account limit for active Season 3 Reward Locks and Commitment Locks is 10,000 EVT. Expired Locks do not count.

Applications

Season 3 is not first-come, first-served. To participate, activate your SyFu account, create a SyFu Wallet, and apply through the official form during the application window.
Only one application is allowed per SyFu account. After submission, the amount cannot be increased or changed, and the application cannot be canceled, even while the window remains open.
If multiple applications are submitted, only the first is valid. Later applications are invalid and do not change or add to the requested amount.
New applications and amount increases will not be accepted after the window closes. The waitlist reallocation is limited to valid applications submitted during the original window and will never exceed the amount originally requested.
Enter the email address registered to your SyFu account. Only an incorrectly entered email address may be corrected through an official Discord ticket during the application window. You cannot reapply or change the amount. An application that does not match the registered account information when the window closes will be invalid.
You do not need to hold EVT when you apply.

Reward Lock After Allocation

If applications exceed the Season 3 capacity, an account may receive no allocation or only part of its requested amount.
After allocations are confirmed, only the exact final amount shown on the Claim site can be Reward Locked. You cannot Lock more or less.
The allocation display start time will be announced through an in-app notice and the official SyFu Discord. Individual result notifications will not be sent.
If you do not manually Lock the full final allocated amount within 72 hours of the officially announced display start time, your allocation will expire.
A single waitlist reallocation will occur only if applications exceed capacity, a drawing is required, and some allocations expire because they were not completed. Only users who applied during the original window are eligible. Selected waitlist users have 48 hours from the announcement to complete the Lock.

Non-Completion

A non-completion occurs when a user does not Lock the full final allocated amount by the deadline after the allocation display start time has been officially announced.
Receiving no allocation, the unallocated portion of a partial allocation, an application invalidated before allocation, or a Lock that fails because of a confirmed SyFu system issue or operational error is not treated as a non-completion.
A Season 3 non-completion may affect allocation decisions in future capped EVT Contribution Seasons, including a lower allocation limit.
Accounts with two or more non-completions in capped Seasons from Season 2 onward will, in principle, be ineligible for the initial application window of the next capped EVT Contribution Season.

Items and Drawings

The Season 3 White TAIYAKI distribution cap is based on the final total amount of active Season 3 Reward Locks after expired allocations and the waitlist reallocation are reflected. The cap reaches 150 at 200,000 EVT. Below 200,000 EVT, it is calculated proportionally:

White TAIYAKI distribution cap
= min(150, floor(final active Season 3 Reward Lock total × 150 ÷ 200,000))

In principle, the White TAIYAKI distribution cap will be divided between five recurring drawings held approximately every two weeks and the Final drawing at a ratio as close as possible to 2:1. The recurring allocation will be divided as evenly as possible across all five drawings.
White TAIYAKI is distributed by drawing. Meeting the requirements — including Season 3 Reward Lock participation, Genesis ownership, account-level lifespan recovery, and the required number of Breeds during the Season 3 period for the Final drawing — does not guarantee selection.
Commitment Lock does not grant TAIYAKI or White TAIYAKI drawing entries. EVT in Commitment Lock does not count toward the White TAIYAKI distribution cap or drawing entries.

Other

Program terms, conditions, and schedules may be changed, paused, or canceled because of technical conditions, operational needs, regulatory requirements, or other circumstances.
Check official SyFu announcements and GitBook for the latest official information.
In principle, the duration of an active Lock, the Contribution Score calculation basis, and confirmed item entitlements will not be changed retroactively, except to correct a confirmed system or operational error.

Use EVT. Lock EVT. Move the Cycle Forward.

Excavate EVT from everyday payment data.

Use it for Breed and lifespan recovery to keep the GameFi cycle moving.

Lock it for a set period to build your commitment to the EVT ecosystem and SyFu as a whole.

EVT Contribution Season 3 and Commitment Lock are the next step in recognizing both using EVT and supporting the ecosystem as contribution — not simply holding it.

Together, we move the cycle that began with Mainnet β into its next Season.
