What the score is — and is not

observationEvery published number is an observation made by Every Second's own nodes at a stated time, under the methodology version shown beside it. It describes what was observed; it does not guarantee future behaviour of any chain.
not adviceScores, indices, incidents and reports are not investment, legal or operational advice, and are not an endorsement of any chain, token or team.
versionedThe methodology is versioned. A change is announced before it takes effect. Numbers computed under different versions are not directly comparable and are labelled.
correctionsIf a measurement is found to be wrong, it is corrected with a public note; the original record and its on-chain commitment remain.

Use of the public layer

public dataThe dashboard, the public stream, public API endpoints and the incident feed may be read, quoted and embedded (including the live badge) with attribution to Every Second and a link to the source.
limitsPublic endpoints are rate-limited per IP. Automated bulk extraction of the public layer is not a substitute for a data licence.
evidence layerRaw observations, per-chain streams, webhooks and historical exports are provided under an ecosystem partnership, an early-access agreement or a data licence, and may not be redistributed beyond the terms of that agreement.

Privacy

siteThe website sets no tracking cookies and runs no third-party analytics. Server logs keep IP addresses for security for at most 30 days.
keysAPI keys are tied to an organisation and an e-mail address, used only to provision access and send security notices.
on-chainHourly commitments are public blockchain data by design; Every Second writes nothing else on-chain and never sends transactions on observed chains.

Proprietary

The observer, the collector, the scoring engine and the site are proprietary to Every Second. The methodology is published so that results can be checked; publication of the method is not a licence to the software.
