Why this rank

Why Wingbits ranks #3

Each strength is read from evidence on a 0–10 ladder and weighted as the published methodology states. The 32 objective points these produce (8.3 here) sit inside the score; availability, friction, trust record and measured data add the rest.

What would move the rank

Each line is the ranking run again with one of Wingbits’s criterion scores changed and every other value held: the smallest whole-point change on that criterion that moves its rank, and where the re-run puts it. Up to 4 climbs and 3 falls are listed, smallest change first. Nothing here is a forecast.

Record watch-outs

Wingbits markets "PASSIVE INCOME" on its hardware page while publishing no hardware price there — the €396–€449 figure comes from a distributor, and a different approved distributor may quote you something else — and its only per-station reward figure is a worked example its own docs label hypothetical. Because there is no independent revenue measurement at all, you cannot distinguish Wingbits from a pure-emissions network; the token's market price is evidence about market expectations, not about customer payments.
Corrected during verification: REFUTED — 10x error. WINGS max_supply and total_supply are both 10,000,000,000, not ~1B. Circulating 985,385,876 is 9.85% of max, so ~90% of supply is still to be issued. CoinGecko reports FDV $50,662,522 against a market cap of $4,992,213 — a 10.1x overhang, the largest in the set. The stated rationale for the payback score is inverted: dilution is barely begun, not nearly exhausted. Read again 15 September 2026: CoinGecko now shows a market cap of $3,446,379 against an FDV of $34,974,913, with circulating supply unchanged at 9.85% of 10,000,000,000.
Corrected during verification: MISLEADING COMPARISON — WINGS ath_date is 2026-04-24, roughly 3.5 months before the 2026-08-05 snapshot, and CoinGecko returns price_change_percentage_1y_in_currency = null (no 12-month history). A token listed in 2026 mechanically cannot post a 12-month drawdown, so ranking its 3-month drawdown against multi-year drawdowns of GEOD (ATH 2025-01-25), HNT, HONEY, DIMO and WXM is not like-for-like and inflates the reward-integrity score.

Facts

What the record publishes

facts, not scores

Pricing: wingbits.com/stations/hardware lists the HYFIX WB200 and HYFIX MGW310 with no price, promising "PASSIVE INCOME" and routing buyers to nine approved distributors. At approved distributor Novyx: WB200 ADS-B Flight-Tracking Station "Price range: 396.00 € through 449.00 € exc. VAT", "41 in stock (can be backordered)". Reward rules (docs.wingbits.com): "Each coverage hex (area of the map) gets 24 WINGS added to the reward pool if at least one station contributed 100+ positional messages that day"; Early Participant Rewards "2 WINGS per covered hex per day", dropping "10% per year" until "5 years after mainnet"; the only per-station figure is a worked example of 100 WINGS/day for "2,400 equally ranked stations (hypothetically)". Data-buyer plans (wingbits.com/pricing): Starter $25/month, Pro $150/month, Advanced $300/month, Enterprise on request.Novyx — Wingbits-approved distributor (WB200 listing) ↗ · 15 Sept 2026

Dimension scores carry tenths, and eleven more categories are re-read from primary sources · platform-wide
- changed Dimension scores resolve to tenths of a point (O-04b), and weightedTotal is rounded to six decimal places before the order is read. 518 published scores move across 107 categories that were not re-read; none of them moves by more than 4 points, and most move by 1.
- fixed 66 published scores change in the eleven re-read categories, against a verbatim source each. The largest moves are Reflexer RAI (−16), Beefy and Unrekt (−11), Aztec (−10) and Golem (+9) — all of them rows whose sources had moved since their last read.
- changed Published order moves in 38 of 119 categories and three #1s change: smart_contract_audits (Zellic → Certora) and travel_rule_compliance (Sumsub Travel Rule → CodeVASP) on the finer resolution, kyc_compliance (Veriff → Sumsub) on the re-read.
- added availabilitySource (O-04g): for a reader who states a country, a row whose availability in that country rests on a region tag its record gives no source for sorts below every sourced row. It is inert in every order published here, which states no country.

The published review cadence is now one the work actually keeps · platform-wide

- changed check-review-cadence-is-kept ceiling 7 → 3, negative-tested: restoring a single 30-day promise over 49-day evidence takes it to 4 and fails the build.
- fixed Measured by regenerating rankings.json: no category changed order and no score moved, and the golden suite confirms it independently — across all 119 fixtures and 2,217 cases the only fields that differ are methodologyVersion and contentHash. A cadence is a claim about freshness, not an input to any ranking.

The country gate reaches every country the questionnaire offers
- changed The gate moved from scoreAvailability to collectProducts and reads assessCountry from the decision layer. It runs for all 60 questionnaire countries: the 27 mapped ones at country resolution, the other 33 at the wizard's region resolution (an EU member the table does not map is credited with an "eu" tag; Ukraine is not).
- changed Measured effect over every category by every questionnaire country (6,959 runs): 807 runs change, in 29 categories and 48 countries; 2,182 rows leave ranked lists and 73 runs change leader — none of them a published, no-answer ranking, which are untouched by construction. Survivors keep their relative order in every run.
- changed 19 further runs — bill_pay in 18 countries, crypto_card in New Zealand — now leave nothing eligible and show the pool for reference. Those rows had been ranked as recommendations with a "not confirmed" label; each is now labelled with its own verdict ("names Hungary as a restricted market", "lists its markets and your region is not among them") and the result says nothing is available rather than "limited availability".
- fixed A restriction sentence is now matched word-bounded ("Niger" no longer matches "Nigeria"; "US" matches "US persons", not "industrial"). Previously a substring test.
