NimiqEarn Quest
AI-Powered Telegram Task & Bounty Marketplace for the Nimiq Ecosystem

Hello Nimiq Community Council,

I’m submitting NimiqEarn Quest, a Telegram-native task and bounty marketplace designed to drive real utility, wallet activity, and repeat NIM transactions across the Nimiq ecosystem.

The idea is simple: users complete quests inside Telegram and receive instant NIM rewards, while startups, DAOs, creators, and communities use the platform to publish paid tasks, campaigns, and contribution-based bounties.

A supporting product concept document is available here:
GitHub Repository: NimiqEarn Quest
Prototype Document: NimiqEarn Quest Product Concept

  1. Project Description
    What is NimiqEarn Quest?

NimiqEarn Quest is a Telegram-native microtask and bounty marketplace built around a simple reward loop:

discover tasks, submit proof, get verified, receive NIM

It is designed to make NIM useful in a practical, recurring way by turning Telegram into a lightweight earning and participation channel.

The MVP combines:

  • Telegram bot infrastructure
  • Nimiq wallet onboarding
  • Instant NIM payouts
  • AI-assisted task verification
  • Reputation and anti-spam controls
  • Creator task publishing and management flow

Problem

There are two major gaps this project addresses.

First, many users want access to simple online earning opportunities, but existing platforms are often:

  • too complex for mobile-first users
  • slow with payouts
  • dependent on banking systems
  • difficult to access in emerging markets
  • not designed for lightweight community-driven work

Second, Web3 projects and digital communities need better tools to:

  • grow and activate users
  • run bounty programs
  • test products quickly
  • reward community participation
  • recruit contributors
  • execute structured engagement campaigns

NimiqEarn Quest addresses both sides by combining community incentives and instant crypto payouts in a Telegram-first experience.

Target Users

Workers

  • students
  • freelancers
  • creators
  • developers
  • community contributors

Task Creators

  • startups
  • DAOs
  • Web3 projects

  • marketing and growth teams

2. Project Goal

The goal of NimiqEarn Quest is to increase real Nimiq ecosystem usage through repeated earning, contribution, and reward activity inside Telegram.

Ecosystem Impact

This project is intended to:

  • drive Nimiq wallet adoption through simple onboarding
  • increase NIM transaction volume through micro-rewards
  • create real-world utility for NIM payments
  • expand Telegram-native participation in the ecosystem
  • give communities a practical incentive layer for engagement and growth

Expected MVP Outcomes

  • 2,000–5,000 onboarded wallets
  • 20,000+ NIM transactions
  • 500+ completed tasks
  • 50+ active task creators

Hey @David thanks for your proposal!
Can you tell us a bit more about how would the “submit proof, get verified (AI assisted)” part work?

Hello Paul,
Thanks for the question. We also have a verification architecture doc that explains the full flow in more detail:

In short, the “submit proof, get verified (AI assisted)” flow works as a layered pipeline:

  • The user submits the required proof for the campaign, such as a transaction hash, wallet interaction, screenshot, social link/post, referral activity, text feedback, or uploaded media.
  • The system first runs deterministic checks to validate objective conditions. For example, it can confirm that a transaction exists, a post is public and matches the campaign rules, a referral event actually happened, or required fields are present.
  • If the submission passes those checks, the AI-assisted layer reviews it for quality and abuse signals. This include OCR and image analysis for screenshots, duplicate or manipulated content detection, spam filtering, NLP checks for text responses, and behavior analysis to catch farming or Sybil activity.
  • The system then assigns a confidence score:
    • high confidence submissions can be auto-approved
    • medium confidence cases can go to lightweight human review
    • suspicious or low-confidence cases can be manually moderated or rejected

Contributor reputation also plays a role over time, so trusted users can get faster approvals while risky or new accounts may face stricter checks.

The goal is to keep verification scalable and fast while protecting payout integrity and reducing spam, fake engagement, and reward farming.

Thank you @David, sorry for having missed that page!

The milestones and deliverables are clearly defined, and we believe the project has the potential to bring meaningful utility and transaction activity to the Nimiq ecosystem.

We’re pleased to say the Community Council is approving your proposal.

To facilitate the milestone-based funding process, we would simply like to be able to follow the project’s development as it progresses. Having visibility into the codebase and development work would allow us to confirm the completion of milestones and release subsequent funding payments with confidence. Please confirm that we would be able to follow all this on the public Github repo.

In addition, we would appreciate regular updates being posted here in this forum thread so that the community can follow the project’s evolution and stay informed of progress.

Finally could you provide us the Nimiq address where you would want to receive the funding and let us know if you want a particular date to receive the first payment or if it should be as soon as possible.
