Sign into Gitcoin Passport
Please log into the application via the wallet extension of your choice. To do so, please click on the “Sign in” button at the right hand side of the page. In the next step, please select your wallet provider, for example MetaMask.
Sign Message
In the next step, you need to sign a message to verify the ownership of your wallet and to allow the Gitcoin Passport application to access your onchain data.
Scoring
Once you are signed in, you can let the app check your onchain activity. Gitcoin will then take a look a variety of different factors to evaluate the reputation of your address. Once this process is complited, your wallet receives a score.
Adding “Stamps”
After the process of evaluating your address is completed, you will receive a “Humanity Score.” You can increase this score by connecting Gitcoin to different web2 and web3 providers. To do so, simply select the service you wish to use, click on “connect” and select the metrics you wish to verify.
