Curve DAO
Mixed trust signals — meaningful risk factors detected. Voter Participation below average. Proposal Success Rate above average. Security (Multisig+Audit) above average.
Score Breakdown
How the TrustGrade algorithm computed this score.
Wilson Score Lower Bound
95% confidence interval lower bound on positive outcome rate. Penalizes small samples automatically.
Bayesian Posterior
Beta(α,β) posterior mean with sceptical prior. Adjusts observed rate toward conservative estimate.
Incident Penalty
Compound penalty: 1−(1−s)². 10% incidents → 19% penalty. 30% → 51%.
Volume Bonus
Log-credibility bonus: log₁₀(n)×k. More data = more confidence, diminishing returns.
Signal Contributions
Each signal's contribution to the final score. Positive = trust-building. Negative = risk-indicating.
| Signal | Value | Weight | Contribution | Visualization |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Voter Participation | 15.0% | ±7 | -4.90 | |
| Vote Decentralization | 60.0% | ±7 | +1.40 | |
| Treasury Scale | 69.0% | ±5 | +1.90 | |
| Proposal Success Rate | 72.0% | ±6 | +2.64 | |
| Security (Multisig+Audit) | 80.0% | ±5 | +3.00 | |
| Member Base | 79.6% | ±4 | +2.37 | |
| DAO Longevity | 100.0% | ±4 | +4.00 |
Why this grade?
Mixed trust signals — meaningful risk factors detected. Voter Participation below average. Proposal Success Rate above average. Security (Multisig+Audit) above average.
The TrustGrade algorithm combines the Wilson score lower bound (which requires substantial evidence to score high), a Bayesian posterior (which shrinks toward a conservative estimate when sample sizes are small), a compound incident penalty (which grows faster than linear), a log-credibility volume bonus, and 7 weighted optional signals specific to daos.
