Decentralised Membership Hierarchy

Promoting Knowledge and Credentials

CyberMaster Academy acknowledges the value of a tiered membership hierarchy that promotes active participation and acknowledges the knowledge and credentials of our community members. This approach is designed to offer privileges and responsibilities based on achievements and qualifications, rather than immediate participation in a Decentralised Autonomous Organisation (DAO). This ensures a more progressive and tailored experience for our community.

  • Membership
    Tiers

    Our membership hierarchy is organised into tiers, each with its own set of privileges, responsibilities, and eligibility criteria
