Genesis Badges: Recognizing the First DomainFi Leaderboard Climbers
As Doma transitions from Season 0 into Season 1, we are entering an important milestone.
Genesis Badges will be live in one week from now, with the final eligibility window beginning today. Eligible wallets will be able to mint their badges in 7 days.
These badges are more than a collectible. They serve as a permanent record of the wallets that participated early, before the leaderboard fully developed, before the ecosystem scaled, and before DomainFi became widely recognized.
The First to Build DomainFi
Season 0 was not just an introduction. It was the foundation. Early participants bonded into domain launches, traded actively, held positions, and competed on the leaderboard. Every action contributed to shaping the first version of the DomainFi market.
Genesis Badges recognize that contribution: They represent the earliest community, the users who didn’t just join Doma, but helped build it.
Genesis Badge Types
To reflect different levels of participation during Season 0, two Genesis Badges are being distributed:
🔵 Day One Badge
Awarded to wallets that participated in bonding activity across Doma launches prior to Season 1.
Eligibility:
- Minimum net spend of $10 USD
- Minimum holding period of 7 days
This badge represents early participation and engagement across the ecosystem.
➕ Day One badge = 1% lifetime leaderboard boost.
🟡 Founder Badge
Awarded to wallets that participated in Doma’s premium and ultra-premium launches:
Eligibility:
- Minimum net spend of $10 USD
- Minimum holding period of 7 days
➕ Founder badge = 1% lifetime leaderboard boost + extra 1% boost for all points related to your premium domain activity during season 0.
How the Eligibility Window Works
The final eligibility window begins today.
That means wallets holding eligible tokens from today through the next 7 days still have an opportunity to qualify for a Genesis Badge. Once that holding window closes, badge minting will open for eligible wallets.
All Genesis Badges are soulbound to the wallet that earned them. They cannot be transferred, sold, or moved. They remain a permanent marker of early participation.
Proof of Early Participation
In Doma, points are a scoreboard, but they represent something bigger. Doma is bringing a $360B+ domain asset class onchain. The users who participated in Season 0 are not just early adopters, they are the initial layer of a new market.
Genesis Badges act as proof of that position.
They are a visible, onchain record that you were part of the system before it scaled, before broader participation, before increased competition, and before new opportunities are introduced.
What's Next?
Genesis Badges signify the close of Season 0 and the beginning of the next phase of the Doma ecosystem. Season 1 will introduce a more structured and competitive system, more details will be announced soon.
Flex Your Badge
If you receive a Genesis Badge, it means you were early.
You helped build the first version of DomainFi.
You participated before it was obvious.
You were there at the beginning.
