How the confidence score works

The Ledger →
01Reporter accuracy

Every rumor starts from its reporter's measured accuracy — how often their past reports were confirmed by an actual transaction on our ledger — or, before five calls, from a tier based on their outlet.

02Corroboration

Corroboration by a second reporter adds up to 20 points.

03Age

Age takes points away, because a rumor nobody has repeated for two weeks is usually dead.

A roster move that matches the rumor marks it confirmed; an on-record denial marks it denied; after thirty days without news it expires. Aggregator roundups ("Notes" posts) are collected but never scored.
