What the numbers actually look like
A score means nothing without its distribution. "SILVER" tells you where a token sits only if you know how many tokens are SILVER — and every scoring product in this market publishes the tiers while keeping the distribution to itself.
Here is ours. It is not flattering, and that is rather the point.

Read that carefully
GOLD is effectively unreachable. One token in 3,248. It requires strength on several independent channels at once, and almost nothing achieves that at launch — the codebase channel alone is near-zero for most new tokens, and there is no way to reach 70 without it. If you set your filter to GOLD only, you will hear from us roughly never.
That is a finding about the scorer, not a boast. It tells us the ceiling is set above what launch-time evidence can support, and it is the reason we publish this table rather than the marketing version of it.
SILVER is the real top tier. About one token in twenty. If you want a demanding filter, SILVER is the demanding filter.
MONITOR is the bulk of the feed. A MONITOR token is not a bad token. It is a token where the available evidence was thin — which, an hour after launch, describes almost everything.
A third of everything scored never reaches you at all. SKIP tokens are scored and stored and never sent.
How often a token is actually unsellable
The number that matters most, and the reason for the whole safety stack.
Base's safety stack has stored a verdict for 403 of 1,187 tokens; the rest predate the snapshot or the stack could not run. The Base bar is a share of those 403, not of everything. Robinhood coverage is effectively complete.
Roughly one token in seven on Robinhood Chain is confirmed unsellable — a honeypot, a blocked buy, a wash-trade trap, or a round trip that costs half your money. These are live tokens with real volume and real charts.
The Base figure is higher, at over a third, but read it against its denominator: it covers only the tokens where the stack actually stored a verdict. It is a share of what was measured, not of everything, and we would rather show you a partial number with its coverage attached than a complete-looking one that quietly excluded what it could not answer.
These are measurements of a period, not promises about the next one. Base covers 31 May – 17 August 2026; Robinhood covers 24 July – 17 August 2026. Robinhood's window is much shorter and its scores run lower, and we do not yet know how much of that is the chain and how much is the window.
Why publish this
Three reasons, in ascending order of honesty.
It makes the tiers usable. Without it, "SILVER" is a word. With it, SILVER is the top 5%.
It is checkable. These numbers come from one query against the live collections, and the query is named in the data file behind this page. When they change, this page changes.
It stops us grading ourselves. A product that publishes its own distribution cannot quietly move the goalposts, because the previous position is on the record. If GOLD suddenly started arriving daily, this page would show it — and the question would immediately be what broke.
