Tasks are a means by which Members and Thresholders can demonstrate their alignment with Praxis values. Tasks may be intellectual, artistic, and others just fun. Each Task has a corresponding PRAX reward, granted after the demonstration is approved by a member of our team. To demonstrate your completion of a Task, you must share evidence in the #demonstration channel. Demonstrations are your chance to prove your dedication.
