Getting Verified
Details on getting verified on fxhash.
Overview
Verification on fxhash has two benefits:
- It allows artists to bypass the three-hour safety pause between submitting a project, and the project becoming live (if it is set to release immediately).
- A blue badge next to the artist’s name on the platform.
At this point in time, there are no other benefits to verification. Verification essentially signals the moderation team that they can trust that your work is yours, follows the CoC and that the intentions of the work are sound. That's it. Those simple measures help in preventing scammers from reaching the front-end of the application.
Verification Criteria
Since verification is a manual process, whose main goal is to prove authenticity of the account, there are a few things which greatly help us to easily and quickly verify you. These are:
- Correctly linked fxhash account, wallet address, and Discord
- Proof of existence and work outside of fxhash. This means a twitter account that has some history, instagram etc.
- A history of work, either on fxhash or another platform - that makes sense in context (e.g. a history of generative/code based practice)
- A personal website with extra information about you, or an active GitHub, codepen, openprocessing or equivalent.
- No history of shady activity (e.g. previous moderations or unverification)
Having multiple minted works, being an active member of the community, having a strong body of work external to fxhash, being a model community member and having socials linked to your account all strongly aid a successful verification.
If you believe that you're applicable for verification, but do not wish to share any of the above - it makes it very hard for us to spend time on your case. If you want to share extra details with a moderator regarding verification, please DM them
How to get Verified
Getting verified simply boils down to filling out the following form:
If you have already requested verification, but feel like you have been overlooked, missed, or otherwise haven't received verification as of yet, feel free to fill it in again.
Make sure you have an fxhash account before verifying, if your address is 404, we cannot verify you.
The verification process
Once you have submitted your verification a moderator needs to review your account to see if your profile is in line with our criteria. We check these once per week and process the approved accounts in batches. Due to the number of applications we will not notify you individually if you are approved or not. But feel free to reach out in the Discord and a moderator or community support member may be able to give you an explanation.
If you are told that you have failed, or after a week have not been verified, you are free to try again.
Losing your verification
If you act in a way which is against the CoC, do harm to the community, or become untrustworthy, the moderation team reserve the right to revoke your verification. Since the verification is essentially a way for the community to instantly know who is and isn't trustworthy in the eyes of the moderation team, we cannot allow untrustworthy members the privilege of verified status.
Before you lost your verification we will likely reach out to you in case we have come to the wrong conclusion surrounding your status. It is unlikely that you will randomly lost your verification without being made aware prior.
In some rare instances you may have been verified without actually meeting the correct criteria, much like before we will reach out to you to let you know.
Collector Verification
Verification is mainly for the purpose of preventing bad actors from creating works that don’t comply with the code of conduct. Therefore collector verification is not commonplace yet, but might be subject to change in the future. If you are a prominent large collector with an extensive collection you can however still fill out the form or reach out to moderators for verification purposes.
