Figment announced today that we have acquired Rated, the industry-leader in staking and validator analytics. By joining with Figment, we can carry forward and scale the incredibly important work that the Rated team has done to bring clarity, standards, and maturity to the staking industry.
Our vision is to bring the world onchain, starting with staking, and a key part of making that happen is transparency. Many people and companies are staking for the first time, and it’s crucial that we shine a light on the inner workings of staking, rewards, and node operators to move the industry forward.
What Happens Next
With Rated, Figment customers and partners will get unprecedented access to staking rewards data, validator analytics, and onchain insights. We plan to continue to invest in the products, gather customer feedback, and continue with the Rated mission.
For the community, we also plan to continue operating the Rated Explorer and API. Similarly we will gather feedback and invest resources in the development of these public products.
Looking Ahead
For staking’s continued expansion, it needs data integrity and standardization – for all participants from asset managers to auditors. We intend to provide access to this critically important data in more and more places to help grow the onchain economy.
Together with Rated, we will continue to build the highest integrity staking and blockchain infrastructure trusted by institutions worldwide.
