# PoA vs Lunam Ranks

***

### Your **Lunam Rank** is your access tier.

You earn it by stacking [**Lunam Points**](https://adlunam-inc.gitbook.io/adlunam-inc.-whitepaper/adlunam-social/get-ranked/lunam-points)—or [**staking $LUNAM**](https://adlunam-inc.gitbook.io/adlunam-inc.-whitepaper/core-mechanisms/lunam-ranks/staked-ranks).

### But rank doesn’t tell the whole story.

It doesn’t show your signal.

That’s where your [**Proof of Attention**™ **(PoA)**](https://adlunam-inc.gitbook.io/adlunam-inc.-whitepaper/core-mechanisms/proof-of-attention-tm-poa) profile comes in.

#### It tracks what rank can’t:

* [x] how you show up
* [x] how consistently you engage
* [x] what kind of behavior you bring into the system

#### Two users might have the same rank— but only one is getting matched to the good stuff.

PoA is what projects using AdLunam AI look at when deciding who gets access to the [top IDO spots](https://adlunam-inc.gitbook.io/adlunam-inc.-whitepaper/rewards/ido-allocations), [partner rewards](https://adlunam-inc.gitbook.io/adlunam-inc.-whitepaper/rewards/partner-campaigns), and [curated airdrops](https://adlunam-inc.gitbook.io/adlunam-inc.-whitepaper/rewards/airdrops). It’s:

* behavior-based
* AI-scored
* constantly evolving
