"Won't it just be all the big accounts that win?"

1. We adjust for number of active followers, so big accounts get normalized a bit

2. We had a similar algo running every day since August with daily $5 USDC rewards

3. Accounts like @afrochicks started with few followers at the start of daily rewards and now have sizable (active) audiences.

4. Here's a permissionlessly-built Dune dashboard from @slokh and you'll see plenty of smaller accounts on the list:

I've seen many smaller accounts get the $5; if the algorithm is same/similar, it's a W.

Can you please share the algo and how it evolved?

Currently: WhatsABI

It’s based on inbound engagement adjusted by number of active followers. No plans to make more public than that.

The previous game was top 100 daily    So different time window and easier to score with 1 day or activity per week

"Similar algo" "big accounts get normalized *a bit*" 

Am I being uncharitable in interpreting that the normalization was substantially nerfed? (Maybe it's just me but it comes off as not being proud of the changes/trying to hide it.)

Hope it becomes more public in the future!
