MetaMask Institutional x Rated
London Aug. 30th, 2023 – MetaMask Institutional leverages the Rated APIs in its marketplace, surfacing performance metrics to help guide organizations in allocating capital to node operators.
Selecting the ideal staking service provider is a challenge for organizations, as there is a plethora of choices yet little context on how these differ from one another. Each provider comes with distinct infrastructure configurations as well as varying reporting standards and performance metrics. MetaMask Institutional is leveraging the Rated APIs to surface performance metrics about these service providers to their marketplace interface, injecting much-needed transparency into the selection process.
“As the demand for staking continues to grow for institutions, having an exceptional and independent data source becomes critical. The depth and breadth of data Rated Network provides allows organisations to make better decisions when working with different Staking Service Providers. We've been impressed with the Rated team's methodical approach to empowering consumers and institutions with their rich data and APIs.”
- Johann Bornman, Group Product Lead at MetaMask Institutional
More specifically, Metamask Institutional’s marketplace interface is leveraging;
Estimated Rewards: This metric indicates the percentage of annual rewards that organizations are projected to receive based on a provider’s performance over the preceding week. Rated’s Operator Effectiveness endpoint provides comprehensive details about the historical performance of an individual operator. This encompasses rewards (both aggregate and granular), performance data (effectiveness and its components), slashing history, and more.
Network Control: This metric indicates the estimated percentage of staking validators associated with each provider. Rated’s Operator Summary endpoint delivers a summary of statistics for a specified Operator including their validator count, client distribution, network penetration and more.
“Helping users navigate the complex staking landscape and empowering them with high integrity and high signal data in order to make better decisions, is core to our mission. We're thrilled that one of the most important institutions in our industry sees the same thing we do, and that they trust the Rated API as a building block in the Metamask Institutional Staking Marketplace.”
- Elias Simos, Co-founder and CEO at Rated Labs
