Scoring 20, for humans

This guide describes the quickest, cheapest, and most inclusive ways to build up a Unique Humanity Score of 20 with Passport.

So, you’ve created your Passport and are working on building up your Unique Humanity Score to get access to a reward, governance platform, or community program.

Now what?

This guide for humans will explain the easiest route to get a passing score, and will also link off to some other guides on how to verify other key Stamps and credentials on Passport.

High-score Stamps

The beauty of Passport is that it aggregates a variety of different human verification activities so that you can pick and choose whichever Stamps you are comfortable with to prove your humanity.

We try to make this simple by weighing certain high-human signal Stamps heavily, so that you just have to verify a few Stamps to be able to participate in most partner programs, which require a score of ~20.

Below are some high-score Stamps that you should consider verifying to quickly build up a score of 20.
