What are Activity Rewards?
Activity Rewards are Tribes' way of rewarding useful contributions that lead to real activity. If someone discovers a trade through your Call, thesis or other eligible activity and decides to act on it, part of the value created by that activity may be attributed back to you. They reward useful contribution, not posting volume.
Why they exist
The most valuable person in a trading group is not always the one with the biggest P&L. Sometimes it is whoever found the token first, whoever wrote the thesis, or whoever said this does not look right while everyone else was getting carried away. Rewards that only track returns cannot see any of that.
What is being designed against
Volume farming, mostly. Raw posting, member count and dollar P&L are meant to carry limited weight, and the system is built to detect circular activity, tiny-position farming, coordinated self-controlled accounts and fabricated Call patterns.
Why a reward can sit pending
Suspicious or unsettled rewards can remain pending, then be verified, reduced, voided or escalated for review. A long-running trade also receives checkpoints, so an unrealised gain cannot stay untested indefinitely.
What is not decided yet
The economics. How much is attributed, on what activity and in what proportion are open questions, which is why this answer says may rather than will. The terms will be published before anything pays out.
