@pichi covered this tactic a couple months back. I will seek out these bots and BLOCK them all.

We have a way of bulk attesting, given a list of wallet addresses. We could probably expand fairly easily to be an arbitrary social path like a farcaster, linkedin, or twitter.

I assume the bulk attesting can work in the other direction. If there is a group of ppl who are real that come onto FC but nobody else in the magic circle knows them, they could still be flagged as spam by the current algo. As FC gets larger there will be isolated groups of ppl who cast quality stuff but the Leaderboard regulars may not know them.

Yes, exactly! Peer to peer attestations from trusted users are a great way to help onboard new communities in a decentralized but still trusted way. cc @gt as another verifications use case
