Get Listed

RootData proactively sources new crypto projects daily through multiple channels and also processes user-submitted listing applications. We review all submissions based on unified inclusion criteria and a standard processing workflow. In principle, any project with a clear value proposition and comprehensive description is eligible for inclusion in our database, thereby continuously enriching and updating the platform's data. Given the volume of submissions, projects demonstrating the following characteristics receive higher listing priority:

  • High X (formerly Twitter) Impact Score.

  • Solid and credible backgrounds of the team and investors.

  • A unique or innovative project narrative with a viable development roadmap.

  • High token market capitalization and a large holder base. For user-submitted applications that meet these priority criteria, listing is typically completed within 1-5 business days. Applications not meeting the priority standards may be placed in a pending queue or rejected, subject to review.

Information Modification

RootData collects dozens of data dimensions for projects, institutions, and individuals, including project descriptions, team members, funding records, social media links, and calendar events. This information may contain typos, be outdated, or have omissions. Therefore, we welcome all users to submit feedback directly on detail pages to help us continuously improve data quality. When submitting feedback, please clearly specify the issue and provide verifiable, reliable sources, such as:

  • The project's official website.

  • Official social media announcements.

  • Authoritative media reports.

  • Credible personal profiles (e.g., LinkedIn). We typically process user feedback within 5-20 business days. Submitters may receive platform points as a reward upon approval.

Data Deletion

RootData's data is primarily sourced from publicly available information online, including official project websites, social media (e.g., 𝕏 ), LinkedIn profiles, and credible industry media reports. Some information is provided directly by projects. For data from public channels, we generally cannot comply with direct takedown requests, as this constitutes legitimate collation and presentation of publicly available information. If you believe page content contains errors, is outdated, or involves privacy concerns, you may provide feedback as follows:

  • Submit an adjustment request via the "Information Modification Request" feature, along with verifiable sources.

  • If the original source is updated or deleted, we will correspondingly modify or remove the related content. If you believe a page contains serious errors, infringements, or privacy leaks, you may contact our team directly via email at [email protected]. We will investigate and handle the matter based on the specific circumstances.

RootData is committed to providing accurate industry data transparently and compliantly. We value cooperative communication with project teams to jointly maintain the authenticity and timeliness of information.
