Hark watches the accounts and channels that move markets, stamps every contract address the second it lands, and keeps score. Follower count tells you reach. The timestamp tells you who was first.
Counting calls…
A ranking is only worth reading if everyone is measured the same way. Four cases decide every row on the board.
A contract address sitting in the post itself. The ordinary case, and where the clock usually starts.
Quote a post that carries an address and you've made the call. A lot of the earliest ones sit exactly here, which is why we read into the quoted post instead of stopping at the top level.
It still appears on their row, because you'd want to see it. But passing something along isn't finding it, so it can never take the first slot.
Typing $ABC isn't a call. If it were, whoever tweets the ticker would beat whoever actually posted the address — and the ranking would stop meaning anything.
Paste the address of anything that ran today and the whole thread comes back — every account that touched it, in order, with the gaps intact. That's how you find accounts worth following: work backwards from something that already ran.
If someone posts this address on Telegram or X, it shows up in the feed like any other token — same order, same rules, no badge. The whole point of this site is that the ordering is honest, and that includes ours.
Call channels and groups, read as they post. Forwards trace back to where the message started, so a repost never gets logged as an original call.
Posts, replies, and quotes. Addresses buried inside a quoted post get pulled out too — a lot of the earliest calls sit exactly there.
Star the accounts you follow and Hark tracks how often each one actually got there first. After a few weeks the list mostly cuts itself.
