FID vs. OpenRank "Engagement" Ranking:
- https://dune.com/queries/3901607
- *ridiculously heavily* skewed towards the earliest users of Farcast
- Why? Because the algorithm starts off by selecting a trusted group of core users based on metrics heavily biased in favor of early users (see https://docs.openrank.com/integrations/farcaster/ranking-strategies-on-farcaster). 
- early users receive multiple boosts to engagement due to similar algorithms being used everywhere (e.g. Power Badge, Degen Tips), which results in a positive feedback loop.

FID vs. Follower Count:
- https://dune.com/queries/3901623/6557858
- nearly impossible for users who registered after a certain point to create the mega followings of the earliest users

Why not use first cast or registration date? Dune's Neynar data doesn't have this <= 2023-09. If anybody has an alternative data source I can use on Dune, it would be much appreciated.

Next: I investigate the degree of cliquiness in early users, if anybody is interested?
