Virality Threshold
The virality threshold system determines when content and creators become eligible for Social Proof Token creation. This automated system uses weighted scoring algorithms to monitor engagement and ensure only content with genuine community interest can launch tokens.
How Virality Detection Works
Engagement is continuously tracked using a scoring system that values different types of interactions.
For Post Tokens:
Viral Score = (Likes × 1) + (Comments × 3) + (Tips × 10)
Threshold = 100 points
For Profile Tokens:
Viral Score = (Followers × 1) + (Posts × 1) + (Tips × 5)
Threshold = 100 points
Default Weights (governance adjustable):
Likes: 1
Comments: 3
Tips: 10 (posts), 5 (profiles)
Viral Threshold: 100 points
When content crosses the viral threshold:
Eligibility achieved: content becomes eligible for token auction
Creator notification: owner receives notification
Manual initiation: creator must manually start the auction process
Public visibility: eligible content may be highlighted for community awareness
Quality Assurance Features
Anti-gaming mechanisms include:
Tips require actual MySo token transfers (cannot be faked)
Comments and reactions tracked through verified user interactions
Follower counts based on authenticated profile connections
Blocked users' engagement does not count toward viral scores
Rate limiting to prevent artificial spikes
Transparent, public scoring formulas
Eligibility Examples
Post Token Scenarios:
50 likes + 10 comments + 2 MySo tips = 50 + 30 + 20 = 100 points ✅
20 likes + 25 comments + 1 MySo tip = 20 + 75 + 10 = 105 points ✅
10 likes + 5 comments + 8 MySo tips = 10 + 15 + 80 = 105 points ✅
30 likes + 5 comments + 0 tips = 30 + 15 + 0 = 45 points ❌
Profile Token Scenarios:
80 followers + 15 posts + 2 MySo tips = 80 + 15 + 10 = 105 points ✅
50 followers + 10 posts + 8 MySo tips = 50 + 10 + 40 = 100 points ✅
90 followers + 8 posts + 0 tips = 90 + 8 + 0 = 98 points ❌
Strategic Implications
For creators, the system rewards genuine engagement and community building. For the community, viral threshold crossing signals proven interest and potential value. Platforms benefit from quality token launches and ecosystem health. The virality threshold system maintains high standards and provides clear, achievable goals for creators.
