Methodologies
This section holds the published methodology documents that govern how Coin Metrics evaluates the exchanges behind the Market Data Feed.
Talos Exchange Scorecard
The Talos Exchange Scorecard is the quantitative evaluation Coin Metrics applies to trading venues. It scores exchanges on the quality and integrity of their reported activity, and that score is an input wherever a data product needs a vetted rather than an exhaustive set of venues. It determines which exchanges count toward trusted volume, and it feeds the candidate market selection behind the Coin Metrics Prices.
