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

Monetary / store-of-value. Each feature is computed from the raw figures shown, then ranked as a percentile (0 to 100) against the monetary 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.

Gate: hard disqualifiers

Each rule is checked against the figures shown; missing data never trips a rule. The strictest tripped rule sets the ceiling.

  • unverified_contractinactive
    Contract verified (Sourcify): n/a, 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): n/a, trips when False
    If tripped: caps the score at 50
  • extreme_fdv_mcappass
    FDV / MCAP: 1.00x, trips above 10x
    If tripped: caps the score at 40
  • dead_tokenpass
    Days since last GitHub push (zcash): 0, trips at 180 days or more
    Santiment dev events in window: 16.79K, > 0 overrules a stale GitHub org
    24h volume: $530.18M, trips below $1,000
    If tripped: zeroes the score
No rule tripped, so the final score is the raw score: 61.2
