How to improve eligibility
Research Refresh: Maximization Notes (2026-06-16)
- Prioritize official, repeatable activities that are visible on-chain or in the project dashboard.
- Keep one consistent wallet history for this ecosystem unless the project explicitly supports account linking.
- Document completed quests, points, campaign IDs, and wallet addresses for later checker/claim windows.
- Do not chase high-cost volume unless the project has a clear, credible incentive program.

Scoring Recalibration (2026-06-16)
- Score recalibrated with stricter evidence gates: direct airdrop/points/claim evidence, actionable path, current official signals, expected upside, effort/cost, and stale-evidence penalties.
- Generic project strength, funding, or broad activity no longer qualifies for S/A without direct opportunity evidence.
