Edge: How Genome Tracks Real Users, Not Just Noise

Likes can be botted. Followers can be bought. But consistent contribution? That’s hard to fake.
Here’s how Edge verifies real engagement and turns user actions into meaningful, onchain value.

The Problem
Web3 has an engagement problem. Most projects reward the loudest voices, not the most valuable users. Attention is gamed. Bots distort reach. Vanity metrics dominate.
Edge flips this. It doesn’t care how much you post or how many likes you farm. It tracks what matters over time:
• What you do
• How often you return
• Who you bring into the system
⸻
How Edge Tracks Real Behavior
Edge captures real behavioral signals across the platform and onchain:
• Who consistently shows up and completes quests
• Who refers users that also contribute
• Who engages across multiple campaigns and modules
• Who takes actions that correlate with real growth
This behavior is logged and analyzed in a structured system that feeds into a unified proof-of-engagement score.

Not Just Engagement. Proof of Contribution.
This isn’t a leaderboard built on impressions. Edge creates a verified track record of value that spans every part of the Genome stack:
• Game performance (e.g., Vee Formation runs)
• Campaign participation and referrals
• Onchain activity across modules and chains
⸻
Anti-Spam by Design
Edge filters out the noise by default:
• Reposts don’t count unless they expand reach
• Copypasta and reply spam are penalized
• Inactivity erodes contribution weight
• Known bot behaviors are automatically flagged
This makes Edge resilient to manipulation while still flexible enough to reward different forms of authentic engagement.

The $NOME Connection
Edge doesn’t just track behavior. It converts it into real reward.
Every action you take across Genome adds to your weight.
The more consistently you show up, the more you unlock:
• Access to new campaigns
• Higher reward tiers
• Reputation-based scoring for future drops
• And ultimately, $NOME - Genome’s native token

Why This Matters
In a Web3 landscape filled with bots, mercenaries, and pay-to-play mechanics, Genome is building a system that rewards action, not noise.
Edge is the foundation.
It’s how Genome measures, validates, and rewards attention that actually matters. Clean. Onchain. And earned.
