Methodology

Every score is built from five weighted criteria

A review takes two to three weeks. We publish the weights so you can disagree with the conclusion and still use the underlying numbers.

25%

Technology

Does the code do what the marketing says, under real load? We read the repos, the audits and the incident history, not the pitch deck.

25%

Team & Governance

Who can change the rules, and how fast? Multisig thresholds, timelocks, voting participation and the team's public track record.

20%

Tokenomics

Emissions against real revenue, unlock schedules, holder concentration and whether the token captures any of the value it creates.

15%

Ecosystem

Unincentivized usage, integrations that survived the end of a grant, and developer retention over quarters rather than weeks.

15%

Liquidity

Depth on exits, spread stability during volatility, and how much of the book depends on a handful of market makers.

We take no payment for coverage, placement or scoring. Analysts disclose any personal position in a reviewed asset at the top of the piece, and cannot trade a covered asset in the 72 hours around publication.
