So you're holding 6 badges!?!?
Welcome to the middle of the pack.
If you're on Abstract, you already know the flex. Your feed’s full of “just got this badge” posts. They’re a quick read on who shows up, who lurks, and who’s grinding.
We did the research to show you where everyone actually stacks up.
Are you top 1%? Or sitting below average?
Let’s break it down — because 6 badges?
It’s not nothing, but it’s definitely not special.
More people have 6 badges than any other number.
📊 Badge Distribution
Most people have 6 badges. But as we get further up, it's obvious some are grinding, or slipping bribes under the counter. Where do you stack up?

🥇 Where Do You Rank?
We looked at the data to calculate who’s actually ahead of the curve. To make the top 1% you need to be holding at least 13 badges. Here’s where you stand based on the number of badges in your wallet:

🧾 Badge Count = Involvement Level
Here’s the rough translation:
1–5 Badges → You’ve barely scratched the surface
6 Badges → You’re in, but so is everyone else
7–9 Badges → You’re showing up more than others
10–12 Badges → You’re active and claiming
13–15 Badges → All the devs come to your house for Xmas
16–18 Badges → Beast mode activated
19 Badges → Who dis?
👀 Final Word
Badges don’t lie. They don’t overhype. They just show what you’ve done.
So if you’re sitting at 6 — good start.
But don’t get comfortable. Because the top isn’t even close to crowded.
