Composite risk score (0–100)
Each row is an automated measurement taken on the date shown, using public on-chain holder data with burn and labelled exchange, staking, bridge and liquidity wallets excluded. Historical readings describe what our model measured on that date — they are not statements about the project’s conduct then or now, and are not financial advice.
No on-chain holder measurement for Cartesi
The score above is derived from public market data only. We have not measured this asset’s top-10 holder concentration — our on-chain scan covers ERC-20-style tokens on seven EVM chains above $50M market cap, so native coins (such as Bitcoin) and tokens on unsupported chains are out of scope. The absence of a concentration figure is not a clean bill of health — it means the check was not performed.
You can run the same analysis yourself on any contract address with our free token checker, or read exactly what we measure in the methodology.
