Rating percentiles

The methodology behind our calculation of percentile ranks in terms of Effectiveness.

The comparative placement of the entity’s Rated Effectiveness Rating among their peers, going by different categories of aggregations. We are expressing the percentile score both in the tabular view (per pool, node operator, deposit address, or withdrawal address), as well as the main navigation with color coded dots (from deep red for lowest percentile rank to deep green for highest percentile rank).

Given we are ranking multiple entities on the front-end, we have separate tracks along which these percentiles are computed where relevant:

• Pools: we are attributing percentile scores out of the available sample of validators, aggregated based on the pool that allocated the stake to these validators

• Node Operators: we are attributing percentile scores out of the available sample of validators, aggregated based on the node operator running these validators

• Deposit Addresses: we are attributing percentile scores out of the available sample of validators, taking into account groups that appear to be operating more than 5 validators, and aggregated based on deposit addresses (to remove the noise from relatively small operations)

• Withdrawal Addresses: we are attributing percentile scores out of the available sample of validators, taking into account groups that appear to be operating more than 5 validators, and aggregated based on withdrawal addresses (to remove the noise from relatively small operations)
