HIQ Score

How your accuracy and consistency shape your standing on Hilo

Hilo is built around long-term performance, not short-term outcomes. Your reputation reflects how well you perform over time — not how much you spend or how loud you are.

This page explains how your score works and why it matters.


What is HIQ?

HIQ (Hilo Intelligence Quotient) is your personal performance score.

It represents:

  • How accurate you are

  • How consistent you are

  • How reliable your predictions are over time

HIQ is not something you stake, buy, or gamble. It is earned through participation and accuracy.

Think of it as your track record on Hilo.


How HIQ Increases

Your HIQ goes up when you:

  • Make correct predictions

  • Stay consistent over time

  • Participate meaningfully

  • Avoid low-quality or spam behavior

  • Maintain a healthy activity pattern

The more reliable you are, the higher your HIQ becomes.


How HIQ Decreases

Your HIQ can go down when you:

  • Make incorrect predictions

  • Show inconsistent behavior

  • Spam or misuse the system

  • Attempt to game outcomes

  • Repeatedly perform poorly

HIQ is dynamic — it reflects both your recent performance and your long-term history.


What HIQ Affects

HIQ does not affect your voting weight or influence on the system. That is handled by MIS.

HIQ does affect:

  • Your public reputation

  • Your ranking position

  • Your visibility on leaderboards

  • Your eligibility for certain rewards

  • Your progression speed (XP, levels, badges)

  • Your perceived credibility

HIQ is about how good you are, not how powerful you are.


Rankings & Leaderboards

Rankings are based on performance, not payment.

They consider:

  • Your HIQ

  • Your consistency

  • Your accuracy

  • Your activity patterns

This allows:

  • Skilled users to rise

  • Long-term contributors to stand out

  • New users to climb fairly


How HIQ Affects Earnings

Hilo rewards quality over volume.

A higher HIQ can lead to:

  • Higher XP gains

  • Better reward multipliers

  • Access to advanced quests

  • Special challenges

  • Recognition and status

Being accurate matters more than being active.


Core Principles

  • You cannot buy HIQ

  • You cannot brute-force reputation

  • You cannot pay for credibility

  • Long-term performance always wins

This is what keeps Hilo fair, healthy, and non-gambling.
