Week 2 of the @talent Builder Rewards is complete!

20K $TALENT distributed to 725 builders—a 58% increase from last week.

Real builders being recognized by their work, not their tweets.

Helping builders get the recognition they deserve.

This week's numbers:

• 12,953 eligible builders
• 725 received rewards (vs 460 last week)
• Max reward: 113 $TALENT
• Average reward: 27.5 $TALENT
• Average Builder Score: 65

We’re hiring.  Electric Capital is an early stage venture firm focused on cryptocurrencies, blockchain, fintech, and marketplaces.

Eligibility criteria remained the same as the previous week:
• GitHub connected to @talent 
• Human Checkmark
• and Builder Score > 40.

No applications needed—just keep building and shipping code.

What I love most about this experiment is how it can challenge the status quo.

Reputation shouldn't depend on your social media game.
True builders should be recognized for their work, not their tweets.

And @talent data is changing that.

Key upgrades:

1) we're now considering contributions to @electric's curated list of crypto repositories separately from total github contributions (and with a bigger weight)

2) the scoring system is improving and, as a result, Builder Score distribution is more even across Top Earners
