Criteria

Airstack provides multiple ways to fetch Trending Casts

Name	Value	Description
criteria	social_capital_value | likes | recasts | replies | likes_recasts_replies |	This will calculate and sort the Farcaster casts based on the chosen criteria: - social_capital_value(Recommended): the social capital value associated with the cast - likes: number of likes on the cast - recasts: number of recasts on the cast - replies: number of replies on the cast - likes_recasts_replies: number of total likes, recasts, and replies on the cast combined
timeFrame	one_hour | two_hours | four_hours | eight_hours | twelve_hours | one_day | two_days | seven_days	Only fetch trending casts that have the most engagement within the chosen time frame, e.g. one_hour will fetch trending Farcaster casts with the most engagement for the last 1 hour.

Social Capital Value

A new metric, Social Capital Value (SCV), has been introduced to identify high-quality trending broadcasts. SCV incorporates the authority of users, measured by another metric, Social Capital Scores (SCS), who engage with the broadcast based on on-chain data.

For additional information on SCV and SCS, please refer to the following section here.

    execute_query_client = api_client.create_execute_query_object(
        query=query)

    query_response = await execute_query_client.execute_query()
    print(query_response.data)
