Observed date: 2026-10-30
Read depth: Full extracted methodology, including score composition, regulation scope and limitations
Locator: Score Composition; Regulation / Scope and Limitations
Evidence type: authored paraphrase of inspected source, not a source snapshot

Supported claim: The observed methodology assigns component weights 50% liquidity, 20% cybersecurity, 15% regulation, 10% incidents and 5% reserves; the final score is curved across peers and recalculated weekly. The regulatory component covers spot credentials and disclaims a compliance certification.

Limit: A relative quality ranking is not a residency-specific access rule. The page showed a relative update time; the search extract specified 30 October 2026. We retain the observation window and do not backdate this methodology.
