# The App — Achievements

Achievements are PD's memory of what you've done — an unlock grid spanning everything from your first mint to things the platform will never tell you how to trigger. Unlocks collect quietly into a single rolled row in your [Pings](/docs/pings/overview) inbox, take a cell on your profile's grid, and feed your PriceRank.

## The categories

| Category | Glyph | Territory |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Primary | ◍ | Minting |
| Trading | ⊟ | The secondary market |
| Social | ⊙ | Follows, mutuals, the graph |
| Projects | ⌗ | Engagement across bodies of work |
| Curation | ✦ | Taste made visible |
| Identity | ◉ | Building out who you are here |
| Anointing | ✢ | The recognition system |
| Streak | ◈ | Showing up |
| Rank | ❂ | Standing milestones |
| Artist | ✺ | For the whitelisted |
| OG | ⌖ | Longevity |
| Lore | ⁂ | Easter eggs — finding what's hidden |
| Myth | ⍟ | The Odin arc — the platform's long mystery |

## How unlocks work

Most achievements evaluate automatically as you act — mint, trade, follow, maintain a streak. Delivery is deliberately quiet: no toast interrupts what you're doing and nothing pushes to your phone. New unlocks gather into one rolled Pings row ("n new achievements") that keeps counting until you open it; its card lists the batch and doors straight to your grid. The lore and myth categories are different animals: they reward discovery, and their conditions are part of the content. The **Myth** section (the Odin arc) is the longest arc on the platform; it is documented nowhere, including here, on purpose.

## Achievements and PriceRank

**PriceRank** (❂) is the platform's standing system. Achievements are one of its primary feeds — the grid is not just trophies, it's your record. The PriceRank surface in [Discovery](/docs/app/discovery) shows where that record places you.
