# FAQ ### How do Curators earn points? There's 3 ways to get points as a curator: 1. Upvoting posts Every user will get a curator point for every upvote they hand out. You can hand out a maximum of 3 upvotes per day. 2. Being one of the first people to upvote a post that gets very popular later on. The number of people who will get a bonus point for being early, and the upvote threshold needed to get the bonus point is determined dynamically depending on platform usage. This rule is intended to incentivize people to look through new content. 3. Being the first of 5 people to upvote a post from an unverified analyst. All 5 curators will get a bonus point once the analyst gets confirmed. This is intended to incentivize curators to look through unverified posts. [Upvoting](/upvotes.md) might be one of the most important things you do on Cyrator. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
