# Terminal
**Build.** The Build track is about creating apps with EmblemAI's natural-language, AI-powered builder — the "Build apps… using AI, inside of a vault" pillar of the platform. Instead of needing a developer, a dev shop, or a big build budget, you describe what you want in plain English and the agent scaffolds and ships it. In tournament terms, Build rewards you for actually *making* things on the platform: spinning up working apps, tools, and dashboards. It's the most creative of the four tracks — activity here (Emblem has cited creators pushing thousands of prompts a day through Emblem Build) is what generates the artifacts that populate the rest of the ecosystem, so it sits at the top of the funnel that feeds Launch and Trade.
**Launch.** The Launch track is about deploying tokens and projects onchain — the "Deploy tokens" pillar from EmblemAI's own tagline. This is where an idea becomes a live, tradable asset: launching a token through the Emblem launchpad and its migration rails (tied into Migrate.fun), configuring the pool, and bringing it to market across the seven chains EmblemAI supports. In the tournament, Launch rewards the people who ship real projects into the wild — turning something built in the Build track into a deployed token with liquidity. It's the bridge between creation and markets, and because migrations feed value back into the staking system, launching well also strengthens the Stake side of the ecosystem.
**Stake.** The Stake track is about locking up EMBLEM to earn ecosystem rewards and signal long-term commitment. Emblem's staking design is explicitly cross-platform: stake EMBLEM and you earn a share of rewards from *every* project that migrates through the protocol (each migration contributes up to \~1.5% of its supply, with the rate easing as more of the community participates). In tournament terms, Stake rewards holders who put their tokens to work securing and backing the network rather than just trading in and out. It's the "conviction" track — the more you stake and the longer you commit, the more you compound both protocol rewards and your standing in the competition.
**Trade.** The Trade track is about executing onchain activity through the Emblem Terminal — the "Trade crypto" pillar and arguably the most active leaderboard of the four. Using EmblemAI's 200+ tools across Solana, Ethereum, Base, BSC, Polygon, Hedera, and Bitcoin, you research markets, swap assets, set conditional orders (stop-loss/take-profit/limit), bridge cross-chain, and manage DeFi and NFT positions — all with plain-English prompts. In the tournament, Trade rewards volume and skillful activity: the traders moving size and using the terminal's full toolkit climb the rankings. Together with Build, Launch, and Stake, it completes the loop — you build an app, launch a token, stake for rewards, and trade the markets, with each track offering its own path to compete for a share of the tournament rewards.
