Check your profile based on OpenRank stats.  
Frame by @compez.eth

Let's clarify the OpenRank Stats frame. ⚡ 🫡
What information does it show? 1/6 🧵

This frame displays what the OpenRank protocol calculates for your FC's account. So, there is a set of strategies that can reveal high quality (highly ranked) profiles from the entire Farcaster network.

Following Strategy 2/6🧵
This strategy emphasizes only on following as peer-to-peer trust heuristics, disregarding all other actions such as likes, replies, recasts and mentions.

Engagement Strategy 3/6🧵

Prioritizing interactions like likes, replies, shares, mentions, and follows to establish trust between peers. Profiles gain trustworthiness based on the engagement received, weighted by the reputation of the source.

Channel User Rankings 5/6🧵
Channel user rankings are calculated in the same way as Global Ranking, with only two differences:

- The Moderators are used as seed peers.
- We only consider interactions between profiles who are active in that channel particularly and do not give importance to a user's global rank.

User Ranking via Engagement 6/6🧵

TLDR: We calculate a user ranking based on the seed peers interaction with other profiles. We use profile/cast engagement to generate the score - this includes users that have interacted with other users casts by way of either liking, replying, recasting or mentioning.

Thank you immensely for taking the time to engage with this content. Your dedication to exploring and understanding this material is greatly appreciated! LFG 🙏 🔥

Impact of Sybil and Spam Clusters on Profile Ranking 4/6🧵

Therefore, if a set of sybil or spam clusters boost a particular profile (say Alice) and their casts, Alice's ranking will likely not increase because of the low rank of the profiles which are engaging with Alice.

What do you mean by prioritizing replies shares, etc?

Does the profile doing this gain the trustworthiness or do the recipients (people followed, etc) gain the trustworthiness?
