#DeFiGetsGraded
In short, it means "Decentralized Finance (DeFi) Rating"—a technical grading system applied to DeFi protocols aimed at measuring risks and quality. The goal? To turn speculation into reliable information, not just "vibes" or loose impressions. Instead of evaluating based on feelings—ya mood—accurate information has become the primary focus. Recently, a "new risk rating system in DeFi" was launched to cover aspects such as smart contracts, market design, and platform governance.

How do similar systems actually work?
DeFi Pulse is a previous example in this field, where it evaluated two popular platforms:
Compound: Received an estimated rating of 91%.
Aave: Achieved 95%. The ratings are real-time, changing according to price movements and lending activity.

Why all this fuss?
Transparency wins trust: Because the world of DeFi is full of risks—from hacks to rug pulls—and the ratings help us see the picture clearly.
A useful mechanism for everyone: Users know which platforms are safer, and developers receive clear feedback for improvement.
A database for the future: Instead of "we say" or "we feel," there is data, ratings, and even "grades" showing the quality of the platform.
