Frequently Asked Questions

Click on any project name in the list to enter the detail page, where you can view structured profiles including team background, financing history, token economics, on-chain addresses, and associated individuals.

Use it as a positive signal screening pool: a significant score increase indicates that the project team is actively disclosing information. Then, overlay the transparency ratings to exclude projects with long-term low scores, resulting in a list of candidates with 'high information credibility.'

First narrow down the scope by tags and financing status, then sort by RD Growth Index in descending order. Projects with a high growth index but a low heat index are often early attention windows.

Use the TGE or Token status filter, combined with 'latest included' sorting and the RD Heat Index, to quickly locate candidate projects that are in the pre-token issuance stage and gaining attention.

Select the target track (e.g., AI, DeFi, RWA) from the tag bar on the left side of the project list, and the list will filter to the corresponding projects. You can further refine by adding conditions such as ecosystem, investors, and Token status.

RootData assigns transparency ratings after verifying and structuring the basic information of each included project, with A indicating the most comprehensive disclosure and C indicating less disclosure; the ratings are related to the completeness of information regarding financing, team, token economics, etc.

This list showcases the 30 projects with the highest increase in RootData transparency scores over the past 7 days, indicating that these projects are actively disclosing key information such as financing, team, and token economics to the community, sorted by score change and marked with current ratings.

The RD Heat Index reflects the current market attention on a project, while the RD Growth Index reflects recent growth momentum. Both are relative indicators calculated by RootData based on multidimensional data for horizontal comparison between projects.

By claiming the project to gain information management rights, supplementing key information such as financing, team, and token economics in the backend with verifiable sources, and the score will be recalculated after updates.

Enter the project detail page to verify team backgrounds, financing institution backgrounds, and token economics, and combine with RootData Research's industry reports to validate track logic before deciding whether to conduct further research.

Ratings are calculated based on verifiable disclosed information. Project teams can actively improve their ratings by claiming and submitting information, which is the design purpose to incentivize disclosure rather than punish silence. Changes in ratings are also public information.

Not complete. All lists and screenings are bounded by RootData's inclusions; projects that are not included or whose information has not been updated will not appear, and the actual number of market projects is greater.

Not necessarily. The improvement list only reflects the degree of information disclosure and does not evaluate business quality; projects with sufficient disclosure may still carry operational risks.

Not necessarily. A high heat index may reflect short-term speculation, and the growth index may also be driven by a single event. The indices are only for horizontal comparison reference and do not constitute investment advice.

This indicates that the project has insufficient data or no significant changes recently, making it impossible to calculate an effective index, commonly seen in newly included or long-term inactive projects.

The indices are updated in real-time based on underlying data; the Transparency Improvement List is refreshed on a 7-day rolling basis, with projects changing weekly.

Based on the completeness of the information disclosed by the project, including key information dimensions such as financing, team, and token economics; the more complete the information and the more verifiable sources, the higher the score and rating.

Collected and organized by dedicated AI agents and data personnel, verified by secondary manual checks before entering the database. Each financing record includes a source link, and team and individual information can be cross-verified.

RootData Projects is the core project library of the platform, covering structured profiles of over 21,000 crypto projects, supporting filtering by tags, ecosystems, investors, financing status, transparency ratings, and providing dual index sorting for RD growth and heat.
