We're updating our labelling system to have two labels: 1. Account Verifications - a measure of how much work the user has done that is hard to fake (e.g. winning rewards, adding socials) 2. Account Spamminess - a measure of how spammy a user's account is when interacting with others.

The way visibility on Farcaster will work is a combination of these labels. To show up in replies, you will need a verification label. You can get this by connecting social accounts and holding a balance of $25. We will also add a system where users who have been active on the network for a while and have built large followings can get a verification without connecting socials (exact system tbd) Verifications will not affect your ability to earn rewards or airdrops for now. We are going to test out the proposal as it stands, and we may make some changes to the criteria depending on how easy or difficult it is for people to achieve. Your feedback as we roll this system out is always appreciated, and we'll make changes based on it.

Hot take: rebrand "spam" as "noise" (vs "signal") I see y'all spend a lot of time explaining that spam in farcaster is not the same thing as spam on email, real people who post a lot that doesn't result in engagement is noise the same as bots creating noise. Might make it a bit more legible.

Re account verifications - isn’t there inherent actions in certain mini apps that also become hard to fake? Particularly daily active use, high scores, streaks etc (even streaks breaking becomes more real)

Awesome! Will users be able to see their own spam or verification label? It’d be super helpful to know where you stand, especially if something was flagged unintentionally.

Thanks for the clarifications and updates. I think spam yes/no is much easier to explain!

Wouldn’t labeling accounts as spam make it easier for people to game the spam algorithm?

feels like the mini apps I built are not considered at all, but that’s the hardest thing to fake
