CULTD rewards authentic signal, not spam.

Every post, reply, and engagement you make feeds into your Proof-of-Attention (PoA).

The more human, insightful, and relevant you are, the higher your daily score - and the more you earn.

Every 24 hours, the CULTD Engine scans all tweets mentioning a project handle, evaluates them for authenticity, impact, and alignment, not just raw engagement numbers, and updates your dashboard with scores for the day before last (a 1-day delay).

Let’s break it down 👇

Step 1. Proof-of-Attention (PoA)

Every post and reply mentioning a campaign tag goes through CULTD’s Proof-of-Attention engine, which verifies if it was:

• ✍️ Written by a human (not AI or automation).
• 🧠 Relevant to the project’s mission and narrative.
• 💬 Backed by real engagement, not botted metrics.

This layer ensures only genuine human attention enters the system.

Step 2. Scoring Breakdown (TQSS)

Each verified tweet is scored through CULTD’s Tweet Quality Scoring System (TQSS), which calculates (simplified):

TQS = (E × I × R × A)

Where:

• E = normalized engagement rate
• I = Influence multiplier (based on your Grinder Score & network)
• R = Relevance to the project’s mission and tone
• A = Authenticity and human effort

This formula converts every post into a Reward Quality Score (RQS), visible on the leaderboard.

Let’s explore what each factor means 👇

1. Engagement Quality

Likes, comments, retweets, and views all count, but context matters.

A tweet that sparks meaningful conversation outperforms a meme full of empty likes.

Our engine measures engagement depth over volume, weighting authentic discussions higher than superficial reactions.

2. Grinder Score (GQS)

Your Grinder Score reflects your credibility and influence across CT (Crypto Twitter):

• Account age, follower base, and recent posting activity.
• Your Influence Score is based on how many smart, influential followers engage with you.

A higher Grinder Score gives your tweets extra scoring weight in every campaign.

Stay active, post naturally, and engage with credible accounts. Consistency compounds your influence.

3. Tweet Quality Score (TQS)

Not all posts are equal.

CULTD’s AI filters out low-effort, AI-generated, or copy-pasted content.

It rewards posts that are human, original, and thoughtful - those that teach, analyze, or offer real perspective.

💡 Hint: “Effort is visible in tone.” Tweets that show reasoning, insight, or emotional authenticity score higher than hype or copy.

4. Relevance to Project

Mentioning the handle isn’t enough.

Your content needs to align with the project’s mission and narrative, not just name-drop.

Analytical takes, how-to explanations, or contextual insights push your score higher.

Hype-only or off-topic posts get capped or down-weighted.

5. Early Engagement on Project Content

Timing is alpha.

Engaging with official project posts by commenting, liking, or retweeting within minutes of their release. It signals initiative and visibility.

The earlier and more relevant your engagement, the more weight it carries.

6. Community Comments

Thoughtful replies that mention the project outside of official threads help too.

They build organic reach and reinforce authenticity — so comment like a human, not a bot.

7. Engaging With Other Grinders

Meaningful interactions between grinders amplify everyone’s score.

When you reply constructively to others in the same campaign, both accounts benefit.

This strengthens network effects — the social graph of real, interconnected engagement.

8. Consistency & Frequency

CULTD recognizes patterns of real participation.

Posting regularly (without spam) shows genuine alignment with the project, earning cumulative trust and stability in scoring.

9. Original Visuals or Data

Custom infographics, charts, memes, or screenshots tied to the project’s story multiply your weight.

Effort compounds attention. Visual originality = higher impact.

🪙 Step 3. Daily Reward Distribution

Every 24 hours, CULTD:

1. Aggregates all verified tweets and replies that mention the project handle.
2. Scores them using the TQSS formula (E × I × R × A).
3. Allocates token rewards based on total daily share of all verified attention actions.

To ensure accuracy, CULTD uses a two-day lookback window - scoring posts from the past 48 hours to capture full engagement metrics.

Rewards are then distributed in tiers:

• 🥇 Gold (Top 3) – biggest multipliers + bonus rewards
• 🥈 Silver (Ranks 4–10) – premium engagement rewards
• 🥉 Bronze (Ranks 11–20) – consistent performer rewards
• 💬 Community (21–100+) – loyalty-based rewards for consistent grinders

Loyalty streaks and long-term participation add additional multiplier boosts over time.

🔁 The GrindFi Loop

Every 24 hours:

→ Your activity feeds the Proof-of-Attention system.

→ CULTD Engine evaluates and scores your posts.

→ Rewards are distributed.

→ The data feeds back into your Grinder Score, boosting your future impact.

This creates a compounding attention loop — the more authentic your participation, the stronger your influence becomes.

Quality > Quantity.

Authenticity > Automation.

Signal > Noise.

That’s the grind. ⚙️
