Technology Grades

Technology Grades🛠️📈

The Token Metrics Technology Grade endpoint provides the latest technology-focused insights for a given cryptocurrency. It includes the overall Technology Grade along with detailed component scores such as activity, security, repository quality, collaboration, and DeFi scanner analysis. These metrics help evaluate the technical strength and development quality of a project.

Parameters: TOKEN_ID, TOKEN_NAME, SYMBOL

Datapoints:

---

TOKEN_ID

Token ID for identifying each cryptocurrency (e.g., the Token ID of BTC is 3375).

---

TOKEN_NAME

The name of the crypto asset (e.g., Bitcoin).

---

TOKEN_SYMBOL

The symbol of the crypto asset (e.g., BTC).

---

DATE

The date for which the technology grade is calculated.

---

TECHNOLOGY_GRADE

A composite score (0–100) representing the token’s overall technological strength and innovation potential.

---

ACTIVITY_SCORE

A sub-score measuring developer activity (commits, launches, updates).

---

SECURITY_SCORE

A sub-score reflecting security-related metrics like audits and vulnerability history.

---

REPOSITORY_SCORE

A sub-score based on the health and maturity of the project’s code repository (e.g. GitHub metrics, issue resolution).

---

Example Use Case:

The Technology Grade endpoint helps assess the tech maturity of a crypto asset:

Developers or analysts can compare technology grades across tokens to identify projects with more robust development activity or stronger security posture.

Institutional investors might use SECURITY_SCORE and REPOSITORY_SCORE to narrow down tokens with cleaner codebases and frequent updates.

Community-driven funds may use COLLABORATION_SCORE to find tokens actively integrating with other projects or with strong network effect.
