METHODOLOGIES

To compile the OC 100, our team diligently opened the nomination process to the web3 community, inviting individuals to nominate themselves or others. In parallel, we actively sought out eligible creators, encouraging them to participate. Following the nomination period, we meticulously screened submissions to eliminate any incomplete entries. The refined pool of nominees was then distributed among our 26 expert judges, segmented by their specific areas of expertise and the volume of applications within each category. Judges conducted thorough evaluations of each profile, making decisions based on three critical criteria: technical expertise, community engagement, and innovativeness. Endorsements from the judges formed the preliminary list, which was subsequently presented for phased public voting. The final OC 100 list was crafted by selecting individuals who garnered the most community votes, ensuring proportional representation across all categories to maintain fair representation.
