What this variable measures

Whether the team ships what it said it would ship, on something close to the stated timeline.

A 10 means a documented record of delivery. A 1 means missed dates, pivots and departures.

Every other forward-looking variable is a bet on this one. A roadmap is only worth the team's record of keeping them.

02

What the universe says

Across 251 rated tokens the median score on Team Execution is 5 of 10 and the mean is 4.75. 2 tokens score 9 or 10, and 22 score 2 or below. Hyperliquid leads at 10 of 10.

Team Execution correlates 0.86 with the composite score across the universe, which makes it almost the same measurement as overall standing. Tokens that win here tend to win everywhere, so a high score is confirmation rather than an edge.

Against live market capitalisation for the 236 tokens with a matched market row, Team Execution carries a rank correlation of 0.32. The market leans this way but does not price it consistently, so the ranking below still contains disagreement worth using.

Team Execution and Smart Money Flows correlate 0.86, so reading both is close to reading one twice. Treat them as a single position on the same question rather than two independent confirmations.

GEODNET (GEOD) scores 8 of 10 on Team Execution, 3rd of 251, on a market capitalisation under $500M. That gap between rank on this variable and rank by size is the whole reason to read the table rather than the top ten.

Tokens at each score from 1 to 10. The shape matters: a variable where almost everything clusters at 3 is telling you the whole category fails it, not that one token is unusual.

04

All 251 tokens ranked

Sorted by score on this variable alone, so a token can lead here and rank poorly overall. That disagreement is the useful part: it is where a single-variable screen finds something the composite averages away.

Scores come from the research pass dated 18 Sept 2026 and do not move with price. Market capitalisation is from the live snapshot fetched 7 Oct 2026, so the two columns are stamped at different times on purpose.

05

Variables that move with this one

Correlations across all 251 rated tokens. A number near 1 means the two variables are close to the same measurement, which is worth knowing before treating a second high score as independent confirmation of the first.

Common questions

Which crypto tokens score highest on team execution?
Hyperliquid (HYPE) at 10, Chainlink (LINK) at 9, Bitcoin (BTC) at 8, Solana (SOL) at 8, GEODNET (GEOD) at 8 lead the 251 rated tokens on Team Execution, each scored 1 to 10 against the same definition.
What is a good team execution score?
The median across the universe is 5 of 10 and the mean is 4.75, so anything at 7 or above sits well inside the top of the distribution. Only 2 of 251 tokens reach 9 or 10.
Does team execution affect a token's market cap?
Rank correlation between Team Execution and market capitalisation is 0.32 across 236 tokens with live market data. That is a weak relationship, so the market prices it only partly.
