System Independence: While Engagement Ratings influence Valuation Mechanics, they are independent backend metrics and are not publicly visible to users.
How Engagement is Measured
Every 24 hours, the system audits measurable behaviors to assign points. Key variables include:- Attention: Total time spent viewing specific content.
- Active Interaction: Likes, shares, comments, and direct responses.
- Economic Support: Purchases, tips, and bidding activity.
- Influence Power: Points received via delegation or community contribution.
The Three-Tier Scoring Model
Mesi utilizes a hierarchical scoring model where user quality directly impacts the success of the content they consume.1. User Score
The foundation of the system. It distinguishes between passive “scrollers” and high-value ecosystem participants.- High-Value Users: Hold valuable NFTs, stake or lock $MESI tokens, and contribute meaningfully to the community.
- Low-Value Users: Occasional viewers with minimal platform investment.
Example: > John (High-Value) receives 200 points based on his staking and spending history.
Paul (Low-Value) receives 5 points due to minimal interaction and zero token holdings.
2. NFT Score
Measures the activity an individual NFT attracts, weighted by the User Scores of the fans interacting with it.
- John’s contribution:
- Paul’s contribution:
- Total NFT Score: 500 points
3. Gallery Score
The aggregate score of a creator’s entire presence, combining specific NFT performance with general profile engagement.
- Sum of NFT Scores: The total points earned by every individual NFT in the gallery.
- General Activity: Time spent on the creator’s bio, profile, and navigation, weighted by User Scores.
Visual Summary
The following chart illustrates the flow of engagement points from individual users to the broader gallery ecosystem.
