What is Risk score?
A 0–100 blend of volatility, liquidity, size, drawdown, exchange count and age.
The score summarises how risky a coin is to hold, independent of direction. Higher means a wider distribution of outcomes, thinner liquidity and shorter history.
The weights are published on the methodology page and the components are stored per coin, so a score can always be taken apart.
How our model uses it
Weights: 30-day volatility 0.35, liquidity 0.20, market-cap tier 0.15, max drawdown 0.15, exchange count 0.10, age 0.05.
