Everyone should take 5 minute to read this wonderful deep dive on Neynar scores, but if you can’t, here’s the TLDR. What is it? • Every Farcaster account has a score between 0 and 1 • New users begin at 0.5 • Scores are recalculated weekly, and every hour for accounts less than 30 days old What does the number mean? • Higher scores indicate value, lower scores indicate more noise • The score is not proof of humanity or proof of bots, only a measure of quality vs spam Who uses it? • Agents like Bracky use the score to decide who to reply to and mini apps like Eggs and QR use it to allocate tokens fairly and avoid farmers • Base uses it to filter notifications and engagement How does the algo work? • The algorithm is proprietary so it cannot be gamed • The model is trained on public and onchain signals, not demographics or content opinions • As Farcaster behaviors shift, the model is updated to keep pace and it’s an ongoing system that adapts with the network But seriously, go read the full article because it’s awesome.

My Thoughts on the Neynar Score and Participation 1/3 So, we're already seeing some mini-apps set a 0.5 Neynar Score cutoff. You can access the app, but as soon as you try to actually do anything inside, that score message pops up. I'm honestly not sure if it's the right move to let an algorithm dictate whether you can participate in a mini-app. I've been active on Farcaster for about five months now. I engage with the mini-apps, I give likes fairly regularly, I post a cast, and I reply to others. I’ve never once tried to spam. The simple reality is I just don't always have the time to reply to casts. I also prefer to post nothing at all rather than posting something low-effort just for the sake of it. It's also pretty discouraging when you post something thoughtful in a channel and get zero engagement, not a single like or reply. And this isn't necessarily because the content is poor.
