HoodScan

How It Works

HoodScan scans GitHub for projects built on and around Robinhood Chain, scores their momentum, and ranks the top 50. Here is how a repo goes from first commit to the leaderboard.

Scanning GitHub

  • HoodScan crawls GitHub for repos that touch Robinhood Chain
  • It looks for chain IDs, RPC endpoints, contract calls, and ecosystem SDKs
  • Matches range from dApps and infra to trading bots and RWA tooling
  • Each detected repo is indexed, categorized, and queued for scoring

The HoodScan Score

  • Every indexed repo gets a score built from stars, commit activity, and Boosts
  • Recent activity counts more than old stars, so momentum beats size
  • Each repo also carries a tier reflecting how deep it goes into the chain
  • Scores recompute on every scan, so the ranking tracks real movement

Boost Mechanics

  • A Boost is a public vote of conviction in a repo
  • Anyone can Boost a project straight from its listing
  • Boosts feed into the HoodScan Score alongside GitHub signals
  • Recent Boosts count for more, so support has to stay current

Top 50 Leaderboard

  • The 50 highest-scoring repos make the board
  • Positions shift as scans complete, not on a fixed schedule
  • Filter by category, from Chain Core to Trading Bots
  • Repos that go quiet lose ground and drop off

Categories & Tiers

  • Every repo lands in one of 14 categories, from dApps to Node Ops
  • Categories keep niche tools from being buried
  • Tiers mark how close a repo sits to the chain itself
  • Core protocol work carries more weight than wrappers

Always Up to Date

  • Scans run continuously against the GitHub API
  • Star counts, commits, and Boosts refresh on every pass
  • Rankings move as soon as new signals land
  • No submissions needed. If it is on GitHub, HoodScan finds it
