I.Introduction
The promise of Web3 was ownership—of your data, your identity, your digital footprint. But for most people, that promise remains unfulfilled. Barriers to entry are high: expensive hardware, complex interfaces, volatile markets, and a learning curve that discourages all but the most dedicated.
Bloom takes a different approach. Instead of asking users to invest money or master new technologies, Bloom asks only for consistency. Start a session. Come back tomorrow. Build streaks. Grow your garden. The system rewards those who show up, not those who can afford to speculate.
BLOOM is earned through participation, not purchased. There's no ICO, no presale, no insider allocation. Everyone starts at the same place: zero. What you accumulate reflects what you've contributed.
This is not a get-rich-quick scheme. It's a long-term experiment in building value through community.
II.Vision & Philosophy
Core Beliefs
What Bloom Is Not
- ✕Not a blockchain. BLOOM is currently stored on centralized servers. Decentralization may come later, but we won't pretend to be something we're not.
- ✕Not an investment. Do not treat BLOOM as a financial instrument. Participate because you believe in the community, not because you expect returns.
- ✕Not passive income. You must actively start sessions each day to earn. There's no "set it and forget it."
III.Mission
Bloom will evolve in phases to achieve its vision. This phased approach allows the project to progress gradually from a simple, centralized start toward a fully decentralized network as the community matures.
Community Building
Grow an active community and broadly distribute participation rewards. Establish a strong base of users who are engaged and educated about the project.
Infrastructure
Develop and test Bloom's technical infrastructure. Community feedback shapes features while we iterate in controlled environments.
Decentralization
Transition to a fully decentralized, self-sustaining network. Governance moves entirely into the hands of the community.
Through these stages, Bloom methodically lowers the barrier to entry—first by gathering a critical mass of everyday users, then by developing the technology hand in hand with its community, and ultimately by handing over control to that community.
IV.The Bloom App: Core Features
Daily Sessions (Proof of Participation)
At the core of Bloom is a simple, accessible action: starting a daily session. Each user can initiate one session per 24-hour cycle by opening the app and tapping the central button—a symbolic gesture that confirms their intent to participate in the network.
This single tap begins a 24-hour session during which users earn BLOOM passively, based on their personal earning rate. The process is intentionally lightweight: it requires no hardware, no energy consumption, and no ongoing activity. Users do not need to keep the app open or complete any tasks.
Proof of Participation rewards you for being an active member of the network, not for computational work or financial stake.
Garden System (Friends & Referrals)
Your Garden represents the community you've helped grow. When someone joins Bloom using your invite code (your username), they become a member of your Garden—your Friend.
Garden members and Friends are the same thing. When you invite someone and they participate, you earn a compounding bonus. This creates aligned incentives: you benefit when your invitees participate, so you're naturally motivated to help them succeed.
A friend counts as active if they are mining now or have ended a session within the last 24 hours.
Your invite code is your username—memorable, personal, and easy to share. If your username is bloomuser, that's your invite code.
Streak System
Consistency is rewarded through streaks. Each consecutive day you start a session, your streak increases.
Streaks create a powerful psychological hook: the longer you've been consistent, the more you have to lose by skipping a day. This encourages sustained engagement rather than sporadic participation.
Streaks reset if you do not start a new session within 24 hours after your last session ends.
Tier Progression
As you accumulate BLOOM, you progress through four tiers. Each tier provides a small percentage bonus to your earning rate.
A Diamond member earns 4% more per hour than Bloom Core, before streak and friend bonuses.
Halvings
Bloom uses a step-down schedule to manage long-term sustainability and reward early users. As total users grow, the base earning rate decreases. This mechanism reflects a core principle of digital economies: early participation is rewarded.
This gradual reduction keeps the system balanced and encourages early engagement. See the Halving Schedule section for specific milestones.
V.Tokenomics: How BLOOM is Earned
Your hourly earning rate is calculated using multiple factors. Understanding these mechanics helps you maximize your participation.
Complete Earning Formula
Example Calculation
An Emerald-tier user with:
- Base rate: 5.0 BLOOM/hr
- 10 active friends: 1.03^10 ≈ 1.344x
- 30-day streak: 1.02^30 ≈ 1.811x
- Emerald tier: 1.02x
Compare this to a new user with no bonuses: 5.0 BLOOM/hr. Consistent participation and community building can multiply your earnings by 3x or more.
VI.Halving Schedule
The base rate decreases as Bloom grows. This schedule rewards early adopters and can be paused until user tracking is reliable.
| User Milestone | Base Rate | 24hr Yield |
|---|---|---|
| 0 - 4,999 | 5.00 BLOOM/hr | 120 BLOOM |
| 5,000+ | 4.00 BLOOM/hr | 96 BLOOM |
| 25,000+ | 3.00 BLOOM/hr | 72 BLOOM |
| 50,000+ | 2.00 BLOOM/hr | 48 BLOOM |
| 100,000+ | 1.00 BLOOM/hr | 24 BLOOM |
A user joining before 5,000 users earns 25% more per hour than someone joining at 5,000+. Early participation is rewarded.

IX.Join Bloom
Ready to start? Here's how:
Download the App
Bloom is available on the iOS App Store. Search for "Bloom" or use the link on our website.
Create Your Account
Sign up with your email and choose a username. Your username becomes your permanent invite code—choose wisely.
Enter a Referral Code
If someone invited you, enter their username during signup. You'll join their Garden, and they'll benefit from your participation.
Start Your First Session
Tap the button. That's it. BLOOM will accumulate for the next 24 hours. Come back tomorrow to claim and restart.
Grow Your Garden
Share your username with friends. The more you help others join and stay active, the more you earn.
Every BLOOM in existence will be earned through participation. No presale. No VC allocation. No team tokens. Just people showing up, day after day, growing something together.
Your contributions have value.
If that resonates with you, we'd love to have you join us. The future is not built by a few. It's built by all of us, together.
