Methodology

ZARQ Trust Ratings are computed daily using a five-pillar framework: market structure (price stability, volume consistency), liquidity depth, on-chain activity (transactions, active addresses), ecosystem health (developer activity, integrations), and governance quality. Ratings range from Aaa (highest) to C (lowest), mirroring traditional credit agency methodology. Read the full methodology.
