# Why RubyScore Exists

Today, millions of users interact with blockchains in Web3, yet ecosystems and projects lack a transparent and decentralized way to distinguish real humans from bots or to objectively assess the value of user contributions across different networks.

**RubyScore was created as the reputation layer for Web3.** It aggregates data from dozens of blockchains and transforms it into a unified, interpretable layer of trust. Users gain the ability to build their own on-chain reputation, while projects can design reward mechanisms and access logic based on genuine contributions rather than superficial actions.
