Developer rating
Know who you are buying from
One public score per developer address, built from how their tokens actually hold up.
One score per developer
Every developer address has a single reputation score from 0 to 100, stored on chain. The same score is shared across Robinhood Chain and Arc, so a developer cannot start fresh by switching between them. Solana wallets are scored separately, on Solana.
The score is computed off chain from indexed activity and written on chain as signed checkpoints: on a schedule (daily) for things that are about behaviour over time, and immediately for discrete events such as a confirmed rug.
What it is made of
Each of a developer's tokens is scored, then the tokens are combined.
| Component | Weight |
|---|---|
| Market cap sustained relative to launch, over time — not the peak | ~35–40% |
| Holder retention — whether early holders keep holding | ~20–25% |
| Volume sustained over time — only days above $10,000 count | ~15–20% |
- Tokens are combined as a market-cap and volume-weighted average, so a string of tiny “safe” launches cannot pad a score.
- Each token has its own decay clock. It pauses when a token goes quiet and recovers with renewed activity, and an abandoned token fades out of the score rather than dragging it down — abandonment is not a rug.
- A confirmed rug sets the score to 0 outright rather than deducting from it, and a rugged token never decays out of the record.
How to read it
- — means not yet scored. A new developer has no record, which is not the same as a bad one, and is never shown as 0.
- 0 after at least one checkpoint means the developer was scored and hit the floor — in practice, a confirmed rug.
- A score not updated for over 7 days is flagged as stale on the token and developer pages. Nothing on chain expires a score, so an old number is older evidence, not current evidence.
What a good score earns
Developers at or above the minimum score get a dev revenue share, funded by 8% of the platform's share of fees — 0.04% of every trade on the launchpad. It is paid each round, weighted by how far above 59 a developer's score is. The minimum is set on chain and can sit anywhere from 60 to 90; the home page shows the current value.
Names and pictures
A developer can set a username and a picture by signing a message with their wallet — no account, no password. Both are self-declared: shown next to the address, never instead of it, never marked as verified, and with no effect on the score. The rules are in Profiles.
Where this stops
- A score describes a developer's past tokens. It does not protect a trade in this one.
- Scores update on a schedule, so a very recent change in behaviour may not show yet.
- A score not updated for over 7 days earns no revenue share that round.
- A developer who drains a token after its first 30 days is not flagged as a rug. Their score still falls as market cap and holder retention decay, but not to zero at once.
