we’ve been working on a big update for channels - launching first week of Jan 2025. we’re going to help channels become autonomous communities using Cura. Channels will have: - their own wallet - leaderboard of top contributors (great launch by warpcast) - automatically distribute rewards to top contributors - launch and distribute channel tokens - channel apps (v2 frames) for landing page, leaderboard and curated content and feeds https://paragraph.xyz/@sahildewan.eth/building-autonomous-communities-with-cura

cool stuff by @v and team. ranking/spam/sybil is in the 'hard+boring+probabilistic' problem sets. but it also leads to high impact unlocks. openrank has been using pagerank and HITS under the hood, both configurable and verifiable.

great thread by @compez.eth on how openrank is used on farcaster! his thread: - breaks down technical concepts really well - shares examples of how can users contribute positively to the network and received quality interactions/engagement - show how to check rankings using his v2 frames he's a great 'community dev' on farcaster - using OSS, building tools and products for public benefit/use, selflessly educating users and helping build great community around topics he cares about.

the unwavering focus of agents on their 'job to be done'. soon they'll be smarter and better at sales than hoomans.

great example of crypto social unfolding through programmatic, permissionless, open collaboration @clanker - deploys tokens on feed @openrank - ranks tokens based on buyer reputation, your network @bankr - recommends trusted and relevant tokens to buy 1-click/in-feed. soon - anyone can use openrank to add their own social context and rankings for any onchain asset. @deployer ships fast (overnight!)

a question that comes up most often - how to make a ranking, points or scoring system useful and robust? here's a few good properties we think are very useful (we naturally apply these with openrank): - align scores with core goals of the app/community (try to answer what is good and bad behavior) - update dynamically based on ongoing activity (sustained good behavior should compound, bad behavior should have a fast feedback loop, allow stale good behavior to decay and new rising stars to rise up) - leverage natural network effects of the app for scoring/ranking heuristics (don't make people do one-time things, capture heuristics from what users end up doing naturally and daily) - avoid vanity metrics (vanity metrics help with acquisition, but don't do much for retention) tldr: value comes from tracking authentic, continuous engagement

openrank scores are now on @base what do onchain openrank scores really solve? 1. permissionless access by any developer/contract (live) 2. verifiability/trustlessness of the actual scores (soon) 3. plurality of scores - anyone can create their own version (live) fun story—we tried putting openrank scores onchain 6 months ago. gas fees for posting+updating scores was significant, even with 500k ranked fc users. At the time, developers were content using scores via APIs, so we prioritized making scores widely accessible that way. fast fwd 6 months—onchain agents, token launchers and transaction bots have emerged. these fully onchain and autonomous systems need a robust onchain reputation system to function effectively. we're going to see many unlocks for social and consumer crypto: access— who can buy/mint, get discounts sybil resistance—prevent bots,duplicates,snipers incentives—rewards for positive contribution markets—merit-driven information exchange link to docs/contracts below 👇

very excited to have @hellno.eth 🐐 contribute to some upcoming projects at openrank 👀 👀 its been great to see his relentless pursuit with herocast! the cool thing about farcaster is the high quality builders it attracts. folks who care about open-source, crypto, positive sum games, building in the new frontiers but solving real pain points. It's a unique thing. potential recipe for something special in the longer run.

big update for channels - mods can now distribute rewards (ETH, USDC, ERC20 on @base) to members for posting great content or positive contribution in the channel. here's a couple of challenges channels/mods typically face: - takes a lot of effort and time to browse and identify good content in the channel - once you identify the users, its cumbersome to send out the rewards, especially if there's many users and distribution is done frequently. we launched channel points and rankings a few days ago. now mods can use these leaderboards to reward members daily/weekly/retroactively with 1-click! 1. login to cura and head to Distribute Rewards 2. create a reward drop - enter token to distribute, amount, # recipients based on daily leaderboard, lifetime leaderboard, openrank rankings. 3. connect wallet and send - rewards are automatically dispatched to the verified address of the FID. soon you'll be able to send a DC to the recipients.
