Abstract generation in progress

According to Odaily, the Genius platform has announced a significant change in its scoring mechanism. Starting from 19:30 EST (which corresponds to 07:30 Vietnam time) on January 17, 2026 (Saturday), the system will cease issuing dynamic points and switch to a completely new retroactive scoring model. Genius commits to fully disclose the details of the new mechanism in the coming days.

Major changes in scoring and point retention methods

During this transition, Genius will still retain the points earned by users through trading activities. However, referral points exploited by bot farms will not be included in the reserve list. This aims to ensure fairness and protect the system from invalid activities.

The first phase of the retroactive scoring mode will officially launch at 16:00 EST (which is 04:00 Vietnam time) on January 19. This period allows the platform to complete the necessary preparations for the new system.

Whitepaper airdrop release alongside the transition process

In addition to the above information, Genius also confirms that their whitepaper on the airdrop program will be officially published on January 18. This whitepaper will provide detailed information on how the token distribution program operates and the related conditions, helping users better understand the platform’s upcoming plans.
