Common Questions
Do I need construction experience? No. We have tasks for all skill levels and types. If you want to learn construction skills, we'll train you.
Can I contribute part-time? Yes. Many members contribute 5-10 hours per week. Minimum to stay active is about 3 hours/week.
What if I don't have a crypto wallet? We help you set one up during onboarding. It's easier than you think.
Can I convert EQTBLT to cash? EQTBLT is non-transferable by design. You can redeem it for DAO services (~$1 value) or spend it at DAO businesses, but you can't sell it. This prevents speculation and keeps governance power tied to contribution.
How fast can I rank up? Depends on your contribution level. Monthly reviews for early ranks. Most active contributors reach Contributor (Level 2) within a few months.
What if I stop contributing for a while? Your EQTBLT stays in your walletβyou don't lose what you've earned. But inactive members may have reduced governance weight. You can always come back.
