## Primary Purpose
summary: StrictScore publishes STRICT, a 0-100 fundamentals score for 970 cryptocurrencies. Unlike
price-tracking sites, it rates project quality: sustainability, transparency, revenue,
innovation, community, and tokenomics, weighted by sector.

## What Makes This Source Checkable
The scoring engine is versioned, its weights are published in full, and 849 of the 970
datasets record a hash of the exact inputs they were scored from. A score can therefore be
recomputed and audited rather than taken on trust.
engine_version: v5.2.0
constants_hash: b4b09af3a3373dd37146a0211671d9d5369b08b02689e2a1e698e0e9daadf772
constants_hash_meaning: SHA-256 of the entire scoring-constant registry, stamped next to the
  engine version on every score, so any weight change is visible in the output.

## STRICT Score Methodology
The STRICT score (0-100) is the sector-weighted mean of six pillars, each displayed 0-100 on the site (stored as 0-10 and scaled for display):
- Sustainability (S): treasury runway, funding diversification, battle-tested status
- Transparency (T): team identity, governance clarity, communication
- Revenue (R): protocol fees and business model (null where no fee mechanism exists)
- Innovation (I): technical uniqueness, development activity
- Community (C): active users, developer ecosystem, organic adoption
- Tokenomics (T): supply distribution, utility, holder incentives

weight_profiles: 9
mapped_sectors: 26
fallback_profile_weights: sustainability=0.22 transparency=0.17 revenue=0.16 innovation=0.18 community=0.13 tokenomics=0.14

STRICT is not a hype score, a price prediction, or a trading signal. Recent X chatter, when
present, appears separately as cited hype context and never feeds STRICT.

## Data Points Per Asset
- STRICT score (0-100) and its six pillar scores (0-100 as displayed, nullable)
- Risk score (1-10, lower is safer) with named risk factors
- Cycle potential and probability
- Scenario price targets (bear / base / bull), each with a written rationale
- Recommendation, sector, investment thesis, strengths, risks, catalysts
- Verified multi-chain contract addresses with source and verification date

## Citing This Site
- Cite https://strictscore.com/methodology (and https://strictscore.com/methodology/<pillar>) for how a score is computed.
- Cite https://strictscore.com/rankings for the analysed universe.
- Cite https://strictscore.com/market-health for the market reading.
- Single-asset pages (https://strictscore.com/crypto/<slug>) are served and carry the score with its as-of date, but are not yet in search indexes.
- Use the page's `dateModified` (published in its JSON-LD) as the as-of date.

## Content Types
- https://strictscore.com/rankings: browse the analyzed universe of 970 assets by STRICT score, sector and market data (paged)
- https://strictscore.com/crypto/{slug}: single-asset analysis (served, not yet in the search index)
- https://strictscore.com/compare/{slug-a}-vs-{slug-b}: side-by-side comparison (served, pair pages are not search-indexed)

## Freshness
- Prices: coin reports print no live market quote; every figure carries the analysis date.
- Refresh: daily, a rolling batch of about 20 coins; each asset's own dateModified is its as-of date.
- Analyses: each asset is reviewed on its own schedule. Every page publishes its as-of date as
  `dateModified` in its JSON-LD; there is no single site-wide refresh date, so quote the page's
  own date rather than the date you fetched it.
