🤝Referral Program

Overview

The Horizon Referral Program rewards users for helping grow the ecosystem. By inviting new participants, referrers earn a share of their activity, while referrals receive an instant boost to their rewards. It’s a win-win system designed to accelerate community-driven adoption.


Rewards

  • Referrer: Earn 10% of all Horizon rewards generated by each person you refer.

  • Referral: Receive a 10% reward rate increase of all Horizon rewards earned.


How It Works

  1. Share your unique referral link.

  2. When someone signs up and participates, their Horizon rewards are tracked.

  3. You receive 10% of their base rewards, and they enjoy a 10% bonus on top of their own earnings.


Example

  • Alice refers Bob.

  • Bob earns 1,000 Horizon rewards.

  • Bob actually receives 1,100 Horizon rewards (10% boost).

  • Alice receives 100 Horizon rewards (10% of Bob’s base).


Benefits

  • Aligned Incentives: Both parties benefit equally, ensuring positive-sum growth.

  • Scalable Rewards: The more your referrals participate, the more you earn.

  • Community Growth: Every user becomes an ambassador for Horizon.


Safeguards & Anti-Abuse

To protect the integrity of the program, Horizon implements safeguards to prevent manipulation:

  • Minimum Activity Threshold: Referral rewards unlock only when your referred user reaches and maintains a $1,000 portfolio balance on Horizon. This ensures rewards are tied to meaningful participation, not empty wallets.

  • Sybil Protection: Multiple accounts controlled by the same user, or funded in obvious patterns, are disqualified.

  • Self-Referral Prevention: Referring wallets you already control is not allowed.

  • Activity Validation: Only genuine protocol usage (lending, borrowing, farming) generates rewards, not idle deposits or artificial cycling.

  • Dynamic Monitoring: Horizon continuously monitors referral activity for abnormal patterns, with the ability to adjust or revoke rewards in cases of abuse.


Why it Matters

Referrals accelerate adoption by rewarding the most effective marketing channel, the community itself. By incentivizing users to bring others in, Horizon ensures that its growth is organic, sustainable, and driven by those who benefit most from its success.
