Your Ultimate Guide for MegaETH Terminal S1
Most users will farm. A few will compound. But this ultimate guide will allow you to become the winner.
@megaeth didn’t just launch a points dashboard. They launched a system. And like every system, there are players, and there are participants and rewards.
Season 1 of the Terminal just went live yesterday and runs for 8 weeks, ending June 23, 2026. Rewards distribute at the end based on activity, with screening and KYC applied.
Weekly cutoff is Tuesday 12am UTC. The mechanics already separate two types of users, and most of the timeline is sleepwalking past the difference.
This guide is for the ones who want to read the rules before they play.
This is the unpacking.
Before We Move On
I created an article for Fair Valuation for $MEGA on D1 TGE (and probably for a few weeks after), check it out here:
What’s Actually Being Scored
Inside every Terminal app, you’ll see a list of suggested actions like buy, sell, or hold. It might look like a checklist you’re supposed to complete, but it isn’t.
The app gives those prompts mainly to help new users know what to try. The real scoring happens later, once a week, and it’s based on what you actually do in the app. The team scores the kinds of activity they think matter, and the exact rules aren’t shown on purpose.
So if you’re trying to “win,” don’t focus on finishing the on-screen steps. Focus on using the app in a real way. Someone who actually trades and manages positions over time will score higher than a bunch of people who only click through tutorials.
The Multiplier Stack
Your base activity is the minimum score you can count on. Three boosts can raise that score a lot.
Retroactive boosters: You get these based on what you’ve done in the past, like holding Fluffle, joining the Echo sale, or holding partner NFTs. These are checked across the wallets linked to your wallet group.
Rocket boost: Each week, up to 3 apps can give you extra points for the activity you do there.
Clan boost: You earn this weekly if the clan you pledged to wins that week.
These boosts are what shape the season. Two people can do the same amount of activity, but if one has boosts and the other doesn’t, their rankings will look very different by Week 8.
Five Rules That Decide Season 1
Here are the five things that you should do.
Rule 1: Rocket Boost is Hard-Capped at 3 Apps
You can boost up to 3 apps per week, with only one adjustment allowed per week. Once set, the slots lock for the week. Boosted apps amplify your scoring. Non-boosted activity still earns, but at base rate.
The system is mechanically forcing focus. Spreading attention across six apps means three of those six are producing uncompounded points.
Rule 2: Clan Boost Requires Your Clan to Win the Week
This is the detail almost every analysis misses.
Pledging to a clan does not, by itself, give you a boost. The mechanic is conditional: you pledge weekly, and if that clan wins the week, the boost activates.
Pledge to a weak clan and stack 3 NFTs into it: zero benefit if it loses.
Pledge to a clan that wins consistently: the multiplier compounds for eight weeks. The strategy is part loyalty, part prediction. Concentration only pays when you concentrate on the right name.
Rule 3: The Cold/Hot Wallet Cluster Pattern
Wallet clusters exist so users don’t have to drag a high-value cold wallet through every transaction. The intended pattern:
→ Cluster cold wallet (holding Fluffle / Echo allocation / partner NFTs) once → Claim the retroactive boosters that the cold wallet’s history unlocks → Use a hot wallet for all weekly app activity → The cluster ties them together: the system reads the cold wallet’s holdings while the hot wallet does the work
This is operational security shipped as a feature. Skipping the cluster step means either exposing cold storage to unnecessary contract interactions, or forfeiting the retroactive multiplier entirely.
Rule 4: App Waves Roll Through the Season
Wave 1 is live now :
Wave 2 launches within days (about 6 more). New apps drop every Tuesday and Thursday afterward.
Locking all 3 rocket slots in Week 1 across the full season is suboptimal. The smarter play is keeping at least one slot flexible to absorb stronger apps as they launch. Since the rocket re-allocates weekly anyway, this costs nothing. It just requires actually paying attention to wave releases.
Rule 5: Retroactive Boosters Reward Conviction You Already Showed
Booster eligibility is partially retroactive. Held a Fluffle, participated in Echo, hold a partner NFT, sat through testnet: each one unlocks a multiplier coefficient for Season 1.
OG users start with a structural advantage that newer users cannot close by clicking faster. The available edge for newer wallets is sharper allocation and consistency, not bigger volume.
Trying to brute-force around retroactive multipliers wastes effort that should go into optimizing the multipliers still earnable.
Setup Sequence
The minimum viable position. Five steps. Each one unlocks a multiplier the previous step doesn’t.
1 - Profile and cluster
Visit terminal.megaeth.com, create the profile, connect X. Then run the cluster pattern: link cold wallet once for retroactive boosters, designate a hot wallet for activity.
2 - Choose your three rocket-boosted apps
Pick apps you’ll actually use. The rocket only amplifies scoring on activity that already happens. It doesn’t manufacture scoring out of nothing.
The right three slots intersect with what you’d be doing onchain anyway.
Anyway, There are several protocols that you want to check:
As for Tulpea, they just launched phase 2, check this out (FYI, contain my ref link):
Otherwise, you can check complete protocols via two dashboard:

3 - Pick a clan and commit
The 6 active clans:
@Tuteth_ - Legend of Breadio
Pledge weekly to one. If the NFT is in budget, stack up to 3 from the same collection to maximize the boost when that clan wins. The multiplier rewards committed pledges to eventual winners, not breadth.
4 - Operate the weekly cycle
Every Tuesday at 12am UTC the week resets. Before each reset:
→ Confirm rocket allocation is correct for the upcoming week’s app lineup → Re-pledge to your clan → Review the Season Ranking and Weekly Ranking separately → Adjust only with evidence, not vibes
5 - Absorb new apps selectively
When Wave 2 lands, evaluate. If a new app fits your existing usage pattern better than one of your three boosted slots, swap. The single weekly adjustment is the lever for that. Don’t swap from FOMO. Swap from utility.
No Referral System
There’s no public referral system on the Terminal. That absence is the loudest design choice in the whole product. The team is not optimizing for viral acquisition. They’re optimizing for users who can read the system and not spamming their referral link.
Happpy Grinding and see you at $MEGA TGE!
