Proof of Music Fandom
Proof of Music Fandom is Bandruption's evidence model for direct music fan action. It helps fans show what they have done for artists, and helps artists evaluate committed fans using signals they can act on.
The v1 model is not a financial score, investment product, or externally tradeable claim. It is an auditable summary of activity inside Bandruption.
What The Score Measures
Fandom Score is a 0-100 score built from seven categories:
| Category | What it measures | Max |
|---|---|---|
| Curation | Maintaining a Top 10 song list | 20 |
| Attendance | Proof-unlocked event attendance | 25 |
| Support | Tickets, merch, and subscriptions | 20 |
| Bounties | Completed artist or industry bounties | 15 |
| Relationships | Followed artists | 10 |
| Competitive | Top 10 battle wins | 5 |
| Referrals | Capped share, reach, and conversion signal | 5 |
Direct music actions dominate the score. Referral activity can help, but it is capped so viral reach cannot overpower attendance, support, curation, and bounty completion.
Tiers
- Bronze: 0-24
- Silver: 25-49
- Gold: 50-74
- Platinum: 75-100
Evidence
Bandruption uses evidence already generated by normal product activity:
- Top 10 songs
- Completed and proof-unlocked event tickets
- Completed ticket and merch purchases
- Active subscriptions
- Completed bounties
- Followed artists
- Battle wins
- Shares, reach, and conversions
Public profiles can show selected evidence. Private account surfaces can show the fuller proof artifact, including the generated proof id, timestamp, score breakdown, and evidence counts.
What This Is Not
Proof of Music Fandom does not claim that fandom is permanent, tradeable, financial, or externally complete. It is a practical artist-first metric: a verified view of what a fan has done on Bandruption.
