# 5.7.9 Recruiting Mechanism

All Kanon holders are potential ontology miners. Its reward mechanism motivates all Kanon holders to perform ontology mining. However, this requirement can be *assigned* to other members in the same group if a clan is formed and registered through the SynesisDAO UI. This mechanism allows each registered clan to pool all or a portion of the collective ***conscription***** duty** for all clan members. This duty is also measured in **Conscription Units** (CU). Anyone in her clan can volunteer to perform necessary ontology mining tasks on the behalf of the other members and reduce CU for the clan. By the same token, all *claimed* rewards aggregated in a clan can be boosted by up to 50% more in rewards in SNS if the entire clan is involved. The function of the boost is to incentivize and stimulate collaboration and competition among the miners. This survival-of-the-fittest mechanics will also reward more skilled miners to take the greater share of the reward pool. The level and amount of boost will depend on the level of **cross-role collaborations** (i.e., the architects, builders and validators in the same clan working together) and the amount of ontology mining output and quality.
