Aura 101: How to Turn Your Market Insights into Influence & Rewards

TLDR

  • Aura is earned by completing meaningful actions inside Edgen: quests, subscriptions, and referrals.
  • Credits power Edgen's AI features — market intelligence, reports, alerts.
  • High Aura scores unlock early features, special rewards, and leaderboard status.
  • Multipliers (up to 100x) accelerate how fast you earn based on your plan tier.

What is Aura?

Edgen’s Aura gives you real, practical advantages inside Edgen.

As your Aura score grows, you gain access to early feature releases, exclusive beta programs, and potential rewards linked to future events.

Aura has a leaderboard. Climbing it puts you in a different class of traders. The higher you rise, the closer you get to special rewards, unique privileges, and access that others won't see.

Aura also helps other traders recognize your commitment to the community. In simple terms, Aura turns your presence on Edgen into lasting value.

What are Credits?

Credits are how you use Edgen's AI.

Market intelligence, portfolio and 360º reports, smart alerts are all powered by Credits. Think of them as your fuel for Edgen's tools.

You can earn Credits for free by completing tasks in the Task Center, or get more through your subscription tier.

Task Center: How to Earn

The Task Center is your hub for earning both Aura and Credits.

It has 5 quest types:

  • Daily: check in, claim rewards
  • Onboarding: set up your Portfolio, sharpen your market edge
  • Challenges: hit milestones, unlock bonuses
  • Social: share your market takes or news
  • Partner: limited-time collabs with projects like Nansen, Pudgy Penguins, and more

Some tasks earn Credits. Some earn Aura.

Multipliers: Earn Faster

Your plan tier and period (monthly/yearly) determine how fast you earn Aura from tasks:

  • Free = 1x
  • Pro = 20-30x
  • Expert = 80-100x

Same tasks, very different rewards.

Multipliers apply to Aura earned from tasks, so upgrading your plan doesn't just unlock features, it accelerates your position on the leaderboard.

Subscription Aura

Subscribing to Pro or Expert gives you full access to Edgen's AI tools. But your subscription also brings Aura benefits:

  • You receive a one-time Aura bonus when your subscription begins.
  • During your subscription, daily check-ins earn you Aura every day.

These steady rewards help you grow your Aura score consistently over time.

Referral Aura

Invite friends to join Edgen. When they sign up and complete onboarding, you both earn Aura.

Edgen suggests which friends to invite to maximize your bonus.

If your referred friends become Pro or Expert subscribers, you can also earn a cut of their subscription via rebates.

Partner Quests

From time to time, Edgen partners with trusted projects to release limited-edition quests.

Completing partner tasks rewards extra Aura or perks like free Expert access, and lets you discover new tools and ecosystems connected to Edgen.

Start Now

Aura offers valuable benefits today, and its importance will grow as the ecosystem expands.

Building your Aura early puts you in a strong position for future opportunities.

Start today: complete a quest, explore the tools, subscribe if it fits your needs, or invite a friend. Every action adds to your Aura, and every point becomes part of your identity inside Edgen.

A big RSU grant just vested — now what? Here's what a modern money tool actually surfaces first, using Ed as a worked example: a reality check, the 22% tax gap most high earners miss, and the concentration risk nobody flags.

Your RSUs Just Vested. Here's What a Money Tool Surfaces First.

You just had a big RSU grant vest. Congratulations — and now the awkward part: a six-figure pile of your own company's stock, a vague sense you should "do something," and no one actually telling you what. An advisor, a spreadsheet, and a piece of software each handle this moment differently. Here's what a modern money tool surfaces in a moment like this — using Ed as a worked example — so you can decide what kind of help actually fits. Key takeaways You connect your brokerage and bank through read-only aggregation, so the tool can read balances but can't move a dollar. Ed's framing is simple: precise about your money, blind to your identity. Instead of sorting your lattes into categories, Ed opens on a single Financial Reality Check — a read on whether your money could survive a bad month. For a lot of high earners, that one number lands harder than any budget, because it answers a question the other apps never ask. (If the Reality Check is the numbers side, your money type is the beha

A money personality test is more than a quiz if it measures behavior, not just vibes. Here's the science behind money types, how Ed's test works, and how to use your result.

What Is a Money Personality Test? The Science Behind Your Money Type

The short version: a good money personality test should feel like a roast and work like a mirror — fun on the surface, behavioral underneath. The useful ones don't tell you what you know; they show you how you act with money, and the one blind spot worth watching. Key takeaways Here's the uncomfortable backdrop. U.S. financial literacy has been stuck for a decade — adults answer only about 49% of the standard knowledge questions correctly, essentially flat since 2017 (TIAA Institute–GFLEC, 2025) — even as free financial information became infinite. If facts fixed money, they'd have fixed it by now. They don't, because the thing that actually drives your outcomes lives one level below the facts: how you're wired to behave when money is on the line. That's the whole premise of financial fitness — and it's what a money personality test is built to surface. Not what you know. What you do. The idea has real research behind it — money behavior is patterned and measurable, and a few tradition

A financial reality check scores where you actually stand across safety, control, progress, upside, and Mental Load. Here's why a money score matters, how Ed's checkup works, and what to do with your weakest area.

What Is a Financial Reality Check? Why Your Credit Score Isn't Enough

The short version: your credit score measures how safe you are to lend to. Almost nobody has ever seen the number that measures whether you are actually secure. A financial reality check is that second number. Key takeaways Ask people for their credit score and many can recite it. Ask whether they could survive three months without income, or where their money quietly leaks each month, and you get a shrug. That's the gap. A credit score answers a lender's question — how risky is it to extend this person debt? It can be high while your life is fragile, or low while you're genuinely fine, because it was never built to measure you. A financial reality check answers the question the credit score ignores: are you safe, clear, progressing, building, and at ease? Here's the simple version, with the research behind each axis.

SpaceX opens Thursday at a $1.77 trillion valuation — the largest IPO ever. Only 4.2% of stock actually trades. Musk is locked up for 366 days. The next 366 days run on an unusually clean calendar of supply releases. Here are the 13 dates worth watching.

SpaceX goes public Thursday with a possible $5 trillion hit. Here's the calendar that actually matters.

SpaceX prices Wednesday night and opens Thursday on Nasdaq at $135 per share — a $1.77 trillion valuation, the largest IPO ever. Most coverage will frame what comes next as a sentiment trade, an Elon story, or a race to Goldman's $5 trillion bull case. The reality is more grounded and more useful: the next 366 days are governed by an unusually clean calendar of supply releases — when 95.8% of the company can or cannot trade, when index funds add weight, when the lock-up cliff arrives, when Musk himself becomes a potential seller for the first time. Read the calendar and you've already understood the structure most market commentary will spend the next quarter trying to explain. Here are the 13 dates worth watching. Two things keep showing up in headlines that don't survive a careful read. The first is the idea that index funds are about to be forced into a massive single-event SpaceX buy. They aren't. Nasdaq did create a fast-track inclusion rule that lets SpaceX join the Nasdaq 100 wi
