Rules, not opinions
Every listing, price, and rank on this site is produced by published rules that run the same for every token. This page is those rules.

Listing
If it exists, it's listed
Every ERC-20 on Hood Chain is indexed automatically, usually within minutes of its first pool on any DEX. Nobody pays for a listing and nobody can buy their way off. Appearance is never an endorsement; explorer-flagged scams are excluded from ranks.
Prices
The deepest pool speaks
On-chain prices come from the token's deepest WETH, USDG, or USDe pool, read from our own node and updated with every swap. Bridged assets whose real market is global use licensed global prices; on-chain wins once its pool holds $25k+ of liquidity.
Credibility
Liquidity backs every rank
Token contracts self-report supply, and scammers exploit that. So a market cap is only credited up to 5,000× the token's deepest-pool liquidity, capped at $10B, with price magnitude bounds. Fail the check: still listed, never ranked on the fantasy number.
Ranking
Three tiers, then market cap
Tokens with real 24-hour volume (at least $15,000) rank first, so a few dollars of dust trading can never float a token up next to genuine markets; live-but-quiet markets follow; dormant tokens rank among themselves at the bottom. Within each tier, market cap decides. Nothing is hidden: quiet tokens stay listed and searchable, just ranked below the active set. Column headers re-sort everything your way.
Trends
Real moves only
Candles are built from every swap since the chain's first block. A change whose reference differs by more than 1,000,000× is a dust artifact and reports as no-data; displayed changes cap at >9,999%. A dash means young, dormant, or rejected: never "unknown."
The exact numbers
| Price floor for a pool | $500 of base-token liquidity (WETH, USDG, or USDe side) |
| On-chain price wins over global | deepest pool holds $25,000+ liquidity |
| Credible market cap | min(price × supply, 5,000 × deepest-pool liquidity, $10B); price within $1e-12 to $1e6 |
| Ranking tiers | $15k+ 24h volume → some volume or verified market within 7d → dormant; market cap sorts within tiers |
| Trend rejection | reference price differing by >1,000,000× reports no-data; display capped at >9,999% |
| Volume | on-chain: sum of every DEX swap we index; bridged: licensed global market volume |
| Freshness | swaps/prices live; lists and stats every 2 min; profiles weekly; news 6h; bridged history daily |
