Scoring 20, for Humans
So you’ve created your Passport and you’re building up your Unique Humanity Score to get access to a reward, governance platform, or community program. Now what?
This guide covers the easiest route to a passing score, and links out to the guides for verifying each Stamp.
High-score Stamps
Human Passport aggregates many different human-verification activities, so you can pick whichever Stamps you’re comfortable with to prove your humanity. We weight the Stamps that most strongly indicate a real, unique person, so verifying just a few is usually enough for the score of ~20 that most partner programs require. The more Stamps you verify, the higher and more resilient your score becomes.
Here are some high-point Stamps to build up a score of 20 quickly.

Free Stamps
Some Stamps carry a fee that helps cover the cost of verification, but many do not. Keeping proof of humanity open to people who can’t or don’t want to pay matters, so there is always a no-new-cost path to a passing score.
These Stamps fall into three categories:
- Free: Stamps that have never carried a cost.
- Previous transactions: Stamps that read on-chain activity you’ve already done; the only cost was gas you already spent.
- Active staking: Stamps that require an ongoing commitment (e.g., staking GTC), but no verification fee.
