Important Considerations
Limitations
New Tokens: May have artificially low scores due to limited history
Manipulation: Short-term metrics can be gamed
Data Availability: Not all tokens have complete data
Market Conditions: Scores don't account for broader market trends
Best Practices
Use Multiple Metrics: Don't rely on overall score alone
Check Security First: Low security score is a red flag regardless of other metrics
