How to Use This Scorecard
Research the token you want to evaluate using official documentation, the whitepaper, and on-chain data from a block explorer. For each question below, check the box if the statement is true for the token based on your research. The scorecard calculates a total out of 100 points and shows a rating band.
The scorecard covers 8 categories. Each category score is shown alongside the total. Questions within a category have different point values reflecting their relative importance. All scoring logic is illustrative — the weights reflect general tokenomics best practices, not a guarantee of any outcome.
| Score | Rating |
|---|---|
| 85–100 | Strong |
| 70–84 | Above Average |
| 55–69 | Mixed |
| 40–54 | Weak |
| 0–39 | High Risk |

Scorecard FAQs
What does the Tokenomics Scorecard measure?
The scorecard evaluates a token across 8 categories: supply transparency, FDV gap, inflation rate, unlock risk, distribution concentration, token utility, value capture, and governance. Each category contributes a weighted score out of 100 total points.
What does a "Strong" score mean?
A "Strong" score (85 or above) indicates the token meets most of the scorecard's positive tokenomics criteria. It does not constitute investment advice or a buy recommendation.
Does this tool use real-time data?
No. The scorecard is a manual checklist based on your own research. You assess each criterion and the tool calculates a total score. Always verify information from official documentation and on-chain sources.
Is this investment advice?
No. The Tokenomics Scorecard is an educational tool only. A high score does not guarantee future performance, and the scorecard does not capture all relevant risk factors for any investment decision.
