#### Example Scenarios

* **Lending**: If Yeida deposits 100 $SEI on Yei for a day, with $SEI priced at $0.80, he earns 80 points (100 \* 0.8 \* 1 = 80). If Yeida deposits and holds 50 $SEI for 2 days, he also earns 80 points (50 \* 0.8 \* 2 = 80). Points accumulate based on the amount and duration of deposits.
* **Borrowing**: If Yeida borrows $100 worth of assets from Yei, such as 100 $USDC for one day, he earns 400 points (100 \* 4 = 400). If Yeida borrows and holds $50 $USDC for two days, he earns 400 points (50 \* 4 \* 2 = 400). Points accumulate based on the amount and duration of borrowed assets.
* **Referrals:** If Yeida refers a friend (A) who earns 1000 points, Yeida will earn 100 points (10% of 1000 points). If A refers another user (B) who earns 500 points, Yeida will earn an additional 25 points (5% of 500 points). If B refers two users (C1 and C2), and C1 earns 400 points while C2 earns 300 points, Yeida will earn 10 points (2.5% of 400 points) from C1 and 7.5 points (2.5% of 300 points) from C2. Points can be earned from referrals down to four levels deep!
