The evidence behind a verdict
| Source | What it answers | Signal |
|---|---|---|
| Pegana | Is the collateral/yield asset holding its peg? | peg state + depeg risk (LSTs + stables) |
| CoinGecko | Where is this actually traded? | venue count + concentration (thin/one-venue = risk) |
| QuickNode (Solana RPC) | Can the token be rugged? | mint/freeze authority renounced? holder concentration |
| Investor canon | What would a disciplined investor say? | Marks, Damodaran, Berkshire — the lens, not the hype |
| Market temperature | Risk-on or risk-off right now? | regime read that gates entries |
Sources roll out over time — peg-risk, venue concentration, and on-chain rug checks are live; smart-money flow, OHLCV depth, and live cited research are next (Roadmap).
Why independent matters
Most agents grade their own thesis on their own data. Gecko grounds the verdict in third-party evidence it doesn’t control and external investor frameworks — then attaches the surviving dissent so you see the strongest case against the trade, not just the case for it. The citations in every verdict (evidence_citations + framework_context) point at
exactly this data.
