GOCHI’s core innovation is its care-to-earn model, which rewards players for providing quality care to their virtual companions. Unlike traditional play-to-earn games that often rely on grinding repetitive tasks, GOCHI creates value through meaningful interaction and consistent engagement.

​
Care Quality Score

The foundation of GOCHI’s reward system is the Care Quality Score—a comprehensive metric that evaluates how well you’re caring for your pet. Your Care Quality Score is a weighted average of four key factors:
ComponentWeightDescription
Stat Averages40%Average of hunger, happiness, cleanliness, and energy stats
Interaction Frequency30%How regularly you check in and care for your pet
Stat Stability20%How well you maintain stats above critical thresholds
Interaction Variety10%Diversity of care activities you perform

​
How It’s Calculated

The GOCHI system uses this formula to determine your score: 
// Simplified representation of how Care Quality is calculated
Score = (StatAverage × 0.4) + 
        (InteractionFrequency × 0.3) + 
        (StatStability × 0.2) + 
        (InteractionVariety × 0.1)
This approach rewards balanced care that maintains high stats, regular check-ins, and varied activities.

​
Earning Tiers

Your Care Quality Score determines your base earning rate:
Care QualityScore RangeMultiplierRequirements
Excellent90-1003.0×All stats above 90%, optimal interaction frequency and variety
Good70-892.0×All stats above 70%, regular interactions
Average50-691.0×All stats above 50%, basic care routine
Poor30-490.5×One or more stats below 50%
Critical0-290.1×One or more stats below 30%
These multipliers apply to your base earning rate before token holding bonuses are calculated. The combined effect of excellent care and substantial token holdings creates a powerful earning opportunity.

Anti-Exploitation Measures

GOCHI is designed to reward genuine, thoughtful care rather than mechanical interactions or exploitation.
Attempts to automate interactions or use bot-like patterns of care will be detected by the AI system and result in reduced earnings. The system is designed to recognize and reward authentic care patterns that mirror real pet care.
