XP (experience points)
Definition: Points that measure your progress in BioQuest and set your explorer level. They are added only when the Biosphere server records the activity, and they are not BPE.

Main sources: the Daily Mystery (+10 to +50 per species, depending on how much of the photo you reveal) and finishing it (+75); games (first completed round of each game per day: +10, +5 per correct answer and +15 for a perfect round, up to +55); daily objectives (+25); knowledge challenges (+15); and each species new to your field journal (+10, once per species — whether it comes from the Field Scanner, its species profile or a quest).
Scanning a species that is already in your field journal shows the result but adds no XP, and the same scan can’t be counted twice. Moving from level L to the next costs 300 × L XP. The full table is in What you earn in BioQuest.
XP never turns into BPE and a Field Scanner result is not a verified observation; verified real-world work goes through Impact Actions.
