> **Visual Note:** A Twitter post by @CryptoTeluguO showing a "Simple @variational_io Points value calculation" with assumptions that total points distributed are ~8M, weekly distributions are 150K, and points end in December, paired with a Variational Docs screenshot highlighting that "Weekly point distributions will conclude no later than the end of Q3 2026" — the caption corrects the earlier December assumption, noting the official end date is actually Q3 2026.

> "Update on my 
@variational_io
 Points calculation

In my yesterday's post I assumed points will end December
While official docs say Q3

My mistake
I usually avoid posting anything I can't verify, but I missed checking the docs this time

So Q3 is end of points,"

> **Visual Note:** A dark-themed trading dashboard showing three epochs with columns for POINTS, VOLUME, NET, and PTS/SIM; the current epoch (06 Aug to 13 Aug, IN PROGRESS) shows -0.81 points, $32.5K volume, and +$2 net, while completed epochs show losses of -$71 and -$303.

> "My predicted 
@variational_io
 points for last week are 23. 

I think this tool always is a bit too positive, but let's see if it is correct this time.

23 points would be pretty good and will probably launch me into the top 2,000.

Only a few more hours until we find out!"

> **Visual Note:** The image features a Pacifica promotional graphic with the "Pacifica" logo in the top left, a "Total Points" label above a blank blue box, a QR code in the bottom left corner, and a friendly seal emerging from ocean waters on the right side, all set against a deep blue background. The post is requesting that Pacifica add point transferability (currently shown as "Total Points") so users can trade points, while also sharing a referral QR code to invite others to try the platform.

> **Visual Note:** A "CT then vs. CT now" Wojak meme contrasting the early days of crypto Twitter (mining Bitcoin on a laptop, reading the whitepaper, buying spot after 72 hours in Discord) with today's culture of farming points, optimizing KOL engagement, pre-product companies with $40m FDVs, and bag-tracking despite AI's rise in 2024. The "yeah this resonates even harder" caption reflects shared nostalgia and disillusionment with how CT has shifted from genuine conviction to performative, extractive behavior.
