<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-what-are-rays">What are $RAYS?</h2> 
$RAYS are Summer.fi’s new points system, launched on June 18, 2024. These points are earned by users for various activities on the platform, from simply holding assets to actively managing DeFi positions.&nbsp; 
While $RAYS currently function as points on a leaderboard, they are poised to play a significant role in Summer.fi’s future developments, including a new yield aggregation protocol slated for early 2025.
