Account Verifications (Beta) 

- Verify your X, phone and onchain addresses to improve reputation.  
- Accounts with better reputation are more likely to earn rewards. 
- Scoring is still in beta and will change as we roll this out. 

Go to Settings > Verifications on mobile.

Verifications are opt-in, but through proof-of-work offer a non-biometric proxy version of proof-of-humanity. 

The more verifications (with publicly visible activity / history / reputation), the more likely you are to be human.

Useful for developers building on the protocol, projects targeting airdrops and even for understanding that your engagement is not coming from "bots".

Working on Farcaster and Warpcast. Longer thoughts at https://dwr.email

thoughts on adding Passport or Talent Protocol methods?

Lots of people have a large history of PoH verifications on those protocols as well that could quickly beef up Warpcast verification.

fair point, there's a number of verifications they use that I think could work well inside the Warpcast workflow.

connect Github, onchain activity check (history, min ETH, deployed contracts, is multi-sig signer), reputable airdrops (/rounds, retroPGF), Airstack SCR

would be interesting to see heuristic verifications eventually (i.e. follower graph analysis, receiving txs from high-humanity accts)

Possibly. Challenge is most new users don't have those and this focused on new users. So the core verifications need to be done on mobile in our app.
