Spreaders

Scoring Mechanism

• Referral integrity (40%): Did the referred user contribute valid data?

• Activation outcome (35%): Was the referral linked to a high-quality submission cluster?

• Chain propagation (25%): Did the network expand from the initial referral?

Spreaders are scored over propagation epochs (e.g. campaign-based or weekly).

Penalty Conditions

• Low-quality referrals: Referred users with repeated invalid activity reduce chain score

• Fake amplification: Pattern-detected bots or looped activity invalidate spread impact

• Inactivity decay: Referral impact decays over time if not sustained

• Referral chains with consistent quality are retained longer in scoring pool.

Reward Distribution

• Spread-based rewards are issued with delay and threshold condition

• Only active and high-quality propagation chains qualify for payout

• Rewards are cumulative and issued per propagation phase

• Long-term spreaders may unlock meta-reputation status and extended influence
