On-chain: Under this category, you'll find options like:
Token Balance: Automatically qualify users who hold a required amount of a specific token. Supported blockchains include Ethereum, Polygon, BNB Chain, Avalanche, Fantom, Palm, Cronos, and Arbitrum.
Token Transactions: Automatically qualify users who have initiated a required number of transactions involving a specific token. Supported blockchains are the same as above.
Custom Quest: If you wish to create your own customized quest, such as instructing users to complete specific in-game tasks not publicly available, you can provide your verification API to check user progress. While this may require some development on your game's side, it can be accomplished in as little as a few hours, depending on your system setup. CARV supports both RESTful and GraphQL APIs.
