We are now ready to receive Safety Rating applications. If you are a public goods web3 project, head over to our website and add your name to the list. We will be fast tracking Gitcoin Alpha projects who submit their details for analysis.\n\nJUST LAUNCHED! - https://whitehatdao.com \n\nWhite Hat DAO aims to use its knowledge and understanding of web3 security to give back to the Ethereum and wider web3 community by providing a public safety ratings platform. Our public platform aggregates information on projects and their teams, smart contracts, token ratings, price information, liquidity pool information, and more. Our aim is to gather data on exploits, rug pulls, bad actors, and compromised smart contracts and wallets, and to rate them and publish findings in an easily digestible manner. This will help people make rational decisions when transacting on-chain and interacting with smart contracts.\n\nWHD aims to provide a publicly available dataset that links project founders to their tokens and onchain actions, and also includes a public repo of security audits. Our API is in development, which will allow coin trackers, exchanges, and communities to directly access our safety ratings credentials and important safety data. For example, our safety ratings data will be used by Unlock Protocol in their grants application process as a form of project safety verification.\n\nWith regards to being a hub of infosec activity, we are integrating a DAO Lens API to enable token-gated discourse and voting, which will allow project founders and teams to connect on security and safety related topics.\n\nWhite Hat DAO is a community of likeminded individuals who are all working towards the same goal of making web3 a safer space. Some of the work completed has been compensated in thanks to previous grants, but participation within the DAO is voluntary. We are seeking grants funding to pay coders and analysts to run due diligence on each project, and to help fund training of new contributors. Our team of coders and analysts runs due diligence on each project, it\u2019s founders, it\u2019s code, and it\u2019s community. Then we produce a safety rating based on a number of points-based metrics (e.g. has contract been audited, is contract upgradeable, token minting contract settings, founder and team on chain activity, community health, etc.)\n\nBy training analysts and coders to complete DD on projects, White Hat DAO will be empowering a new generation of web3 users to understand and safely interact within blockchain environments.\n\nThank you for reading our submission, and if you are interested in getting involved please join us on Discord from the link on our website!\n\nhttps://whitehatdao.com", "logoImgData": {}, "bannerImgData": {}, "projectGithub": "WhiteHatDAO", "projectTwitter": "White_Hat_DAO"}
