About ChainScouter

What ChainScouter is, what it covers, where its facts come from, and how it makes money.

What ChainScouter is

You know what crypto is. Now you are looking at a protocol or an app you have not used before, and you want the facts that decide whether to try it: what it costs, whether it asks for identity, whether your country is excluded, and how money gets in and out. ChainScouter puts those facts on one page, with the source next to each one, and lets you compare any two protocols side by side.

What we cover

Coverage is organized by category. Each guide defines its category and lists every protocol in it:

  • Perpetual DEXs: Leveraged perpetuals traded on an order book or against a liquidity pool.
  • Trading apps: Consumer apps that bundle discovery, an embedded wallet, and trading.

All protocols puts every one in a single table.

Where the facts come from

Facts come from each protocol's own documentation, fee schedules, and terms. Each one is recorded once, with its source and the date it was checked, and the tables and summaries across the site read from that record. When the documentation leaves something out, the page says so instead of guessing. Our assessments are labeled as ours and kept apart from the sourced facts. How we research and compare

How we make money

ChainScouter is independent: no protocol we cover owns or funds it. Our only revenue is commission from referral links, and a link that pays us is labeled where it appears. There are no ads or sponsored posts. No protocol pays to be listed, placed higher, or reviewed more kindly. Read the disclosure
