For the Community

Focus your Research Efforts:

Maximize your time and prioritize projects committed to transparency, user protections, and accountability. The CRCI Reviews can guide you in determining where to focus your research resources.

More Signal, Less Noise:

The CRCI Pledge of Excellence establishes a higher barrier of entry deterring bad actors by requiring projects to publish their commitment to user protection and operational integrity to earn and retain their CRCI Score and CRCI Pledge of Excellence status.

Informed Decision-Making:

Add the CRCI Reviews and insights to your own methods of research to formulate your own informed decisions. You are your own best investment advisor and if you don't feel you are, find someone who you trust that has the expertise in fundamental analysis that matches your investment risk and goals.

Community Feedback and Input

Your experience with our DeFi projects help guide our objectives. With combined community efforts we can all work to build a more accountable ecosystem. We're building ways to collect community research to add to the value of the DeFi ecosystem.
