Vote (Design in Progress)
CoinScore plans to introduce a community voting system so users can influence what we measure, how we weigh it, and which features we build next. The goal is not to “decide prices,” but to improve the Methodology.
For technical definitions of each metric and current LIVE/STATIC/Future status, see the Methodology page. Voting outcomes will be recorded there with version tags (e.g., v13, v14).
Why voting?
- Transparency: publish what we’re considering and how community input affects it.
- Fairness: reduce hidden bias by inviting diverse, public feedback.
- Focus: prioritize metrics and features that matter most to real users.
What will users vote on? (Planned)
- Weights: adjust blends across Price / Holders / Dev / Social / Liquidity / Utility (and future candidates) within safe ranges.
- Scoring rules: e.g., volatility windows, liquidity modifiers, stablecoin caps, outlier handling.
- New metrics priority: on-chain usage, richer dev signals, social clustering, regulatory / transparency / security, etc.
- UX priorities: search & suggestions, evidence layout, export, watchlists.
- Evidence trust: up/down-rate sources so low-quality links have less impact.
How your vote will be used
- Votes guide parameter ranges (e.g., “Price weight 15–25%”) rather than hard-overriding a single number.
- We will publish before/after test runs and explain trade-offs (accuracy, stability, coverage).
- Final changes are merged via a versioned release and documented in Methodology.
Guardrails & integrity
- Influence limits: aggregate results; avoid “first-come” or “whale” dominance.
- Anti-gaming: rate limits and basic abuse detection; optional wallet attestations later if needed.
- Neutrality: non-promotional tone; evidence and sourcing are non-negotiable.
- No financial advice: voting shapes the methodology; scores remain references/estimates.
Privacy
- Early phases use anonymous voting with only aggregate statistics published.
- If wallet-based attestations are added, they will be optional and privacy-respecting.
Roadmap
- Phase 0 (now): collect topics & weight ranges the community cares about.
- Phase 1: open, anonymous polls with public results.
- Phase 2: parameter experiments (A/B of weights/rules) + public change logs.
- Phase 3: optional wallet-based attestations to reduce spam (privacy preserved).
Status
Voting is not yet implemented and is under active design. To support development, see the Donation page.
FAQ
Q: Will votes directly change live scores?
A: Not instantly. Votes guide proposals. We test, document, and then roll changes into a versioned release.
Q: Can projects campaign for votes?
A: They may share the page, but guardrails keep results representative and transparent.
Q: What if the crowd prefers a riskier methodology?
A: We keep non-negotiables (evidence, sourcing, UTC, non-promotional tone) and publish rationale when declining proposals.
