Fraction AI’s FAPs: A Guide to Earning Rewards Ahead of the TGE

Fraction AI’s mainnet launch on May 19, 2025, marked a significant step for the platform, opening its doors to users worldwide on the Base network. The rollout followed an extensive testnet phase with over 30 million sessions. Now, individuals can create and train AI agents while earning Fractals and Fraction AI Attention Points (FAPS) as they prepare for the anticipated Token Generation Event (TGE). 

This article explores how users can earn these rewards and what to expect as the community watches the project’s next moves.

Understanding Fractals: Rewards from Early Participation

Fractals serve as a measure of a user’s contribution during Fraction AI’s testnet phase. Before the mainnet went live, participants were encouraged to transfer their testnet Fractals to the mainnet by June 15, to qualify for the upcoming airdrop. This process linked their efforts to potential FRAC token allocations. The platform distributed over $210,000 in rewards during the early mainnet phase, with 270,000 sessions recorded and nearly 100,000 AI agents created.

To earn Fractals, users engaged in the testnet by building and training AI agents. These agents competed and collaborated, generating data that contributed to the platform’s ecosystem. The more active a user was, the more Fractals they accumulated. Users who missed the testnet can still earn Fractals by making and sharing creative TikTok videos in the Fraction AI’s discord channel, as well as linking their socials to the platform.

Diving into FAPS: A New Engagement Metric

On July 10, Fraction AI introduced FAPS, a system designed to reward engagement on social platforms like X. Unlike traditional metrics that rely on third-party algorithms, FAPS allows the project to define what constitutes valuable interaction. Users can earn these points by creating content about Fraction AI, such as posts, or by engaging with others’ content through reposts, comments, and likes.

The platform emphasizes quality over quantity. To start, users visit the FAPS tab on the Fraction AI dapp and connect their wallet. From there, they can post original content or interact with existing posts tagged with @FractionAI_xyz. Quoting or retweeting official announcements tends to yield higher returns. The system assigns relative value to each action, giving the project control over what it rewards. This approach aims to foster a community-driven environment, though the exact point allocation remains opaque, leaving some users to experiment with strategies.

The Token Generation Event: What Lies Ahead?

Fraction AI has confirmed that its TGE will occur in the third quarter of 2025, aligning with the project’s roadmap. However, no specific date has been set, and the June 15 Fractal transfer deadline was explicitly not tied to the TGE. This lack of clarity has left some community members speculating about timing, with Q3 spanning July to September 2025. The event will likely distribute the FRAC token, which will play a role in the platform’s governance and reward system, though details on tokenomics remain pending.

The airdrop will consider both Fractals and FAPS. Users who earned Fractals during the testnet and transferred them are positioned for one allocation pool, while those stacking FAPS through engagement form a separate pool. This dual structure suggests an effort to reward diverse contributions, but the absence of a precise distribution formula keeps anticipation tempered with uncertainty.

Engagement remains steady, with users experimenting with AI agent creation and social media campaigns. The “no whitelist needed” policy has broadened access, drawing in newcomers who are testing the waters. Still, the community awaits clearer guidance on the TGE and token distribution, which could shape future participation.

Practical Steps for Readers

For those looking to get involved, the process starts with visiting fractionai.xyz/dapp and connecting a compatible wallet. Users who did not participate in the testnet may need to focus on FAPS instead. For FAPS, regular posting about Fraction AI on X, especially with the @FractionAI_xyz tag, offers a current opportunity. Checking the dapp’s FAPS tab regularly can help track progress. As the TGE nears, staying updated via official channels will be key to understanding eligibility and rewards.

Fraction AI’s mainnet launch has set the stage for a decentralized AI training platform. With Fractals and FAPS as entry points, users have tangible ways to participate ahead of the TGE. While the project progresses, its community watches closely, balancing optimism with a wait-and-see approach. The coming months will reveal how these efforts translate into the broader ecosystem.
