The score

Each account's cumulative engagement is weighted into a single influence score:

score = views × 1 + reposts × 10 + replies × 4 + isBuilder × 5000

Why these weights

• Views anchor the score at one each — reach, measured plainly.
• Reposts weight heavily because they extend reach far beyond the original audience.
• Replies reward the conversational signal, the back-and-forth that makes a conversation a conversation.
• Builder bonus recognises people building on Oarcoin. Approved builders receive a one-time +5,000 bonus added to their cumulative score.

Cumulative, not instant

Scores are cumulative since an account entered the ledger, and the pool is re-ranked weekly. A consistent presence outranks a single viral post.

Published and legible

The weights are configurable and published here so the index stays legible — you can always see exactly how a score was built.
