Key

ok: returned data for this token; it is in the score

empty: reachable, but has nothing on this token (not tracked there); scored without it

error: the request failed this run (rate limit or outage); scored without it and retried next refresh

off: not queried: no identifier for this token, or the source needs a key or plan we do not have

stale: the source failed this run; the last stored values were carried forward (dated in the advisory) so the score does not move on an outage

How the score is built

DeFi protocol. Each feature is computed from the raw figures shown, then ranked as a percentile (0 to 100) against the defi reference basket; features average within a domain; domains are weighted, with the weights renormalized over the domains that have data (a domain the class is defined by is floored, not skipped, when it has none); any gate that trips caps the result. Points are percentile times weight; they add up to the raw score.

unverified_contractinactive
Contract verified (Sourcify): yes, trips when False
If tripped: zeroes the score
anonymous_teaminactive
Team anonymous: n/a, trips when True
If tripped: caps the score at 40
no_auditpass
Audit on record (DefiLlama): yes, trips when False
If tripped: caps the score at 50
extreme_fdv_mcappass
FDV / MCAP: 1.96x, trips above 10x
