Miners earn TAO by making real, merged pull requests to recognized open source repositories. ## How it Works -Miners register with a fine-grained GitHub personal access token (PAT) and contribute to whitelisted open source repositories. When their pull requests get merged, validators authenticate account ownership via the PAT, verify the merged contributions, and score them based on code quality, repository weight, and programming language factors.
