Methodology
Our full methodology for the PDI index.
Token inclusion criteria
Any token included in our index must meet all the criteria below.
Project and token characteristics
- The project must have a listing on Defi Llama.
- The project’s token should have been listed on CoinGecko with pricing data at least 1 year prior to the date of inclusion in the index.
- The project should have a token that is native to Ethereum L1 or L2. This excludes wrapped variants, where the underlying tokens are locked on an alt-L1.
- The project should be a going concern, with a dedicated team actively building, supporting and maintaining the project.
- No rebasing or deflationary tokens.
- The project must be widely considered to be building a useful protocol or product. Projects that have ponzi characteristics at the core of their offering will not be considered.
- Synthetic tokens which derive their value from external price feeds are not permissible.
- The project’s token must not have the ability to pause token transfers.
- The project’s protocol or product must have significant usage.
Weighting requirements
- The maximum weight any one token can have is 30%.
- All excess weight is proportionally redistributed to all uncapped tokens. After this has been completed, if another token now exceeds the 30% threshold the excess will be redistributed to the remaining uncapped tokens. This process will occur iteratively until there are no tokens that exceed the maximum weight.
- Any asset with a weight below 0.5% will be removed from the index.
Liquidity Requirements
- The token must be listed on a supported exchange.
- The token should have at least $5mm of onchain liquidity on a single pair.
- The token must have shown consistent DeFi liquidity on Ethereum.
Security Requirements
- The project must have been audited by smart contract security professionals with the audit report(s) publicly available. Alternatively, the protocol must have been operating long enough to create a consensus about its safety in the decentralised finance community.
Index maintenance
Rebalancing
Rebalancing - Occurs on the first business day of each month according to the weighting methodology used for the index. The new assets and weights are determined on the last Wednesday of each month.
