9 providers scored against each other.
Where the gap comes from
Two scores side by side say one is higher. This says why: the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart, and each component’s share of the difference adds back to the difference exactly. Compared against PublicNode, the highest scorer of those selected.
PublicNodevsBlast API
+17.1points
- Latency+17.2
- Head freshness−0.1
- Availability−0.0
- Correctness−0.0
The parts add to +17.1, exactly — the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart.
PublicNodevsMerkle
+24.7points
- Latency+24.7
- Head freshness−0.0
- Availability−0.0
- Correctness−0.0
The parts add to +24.7, exactly — the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart.
PublicNodevs1RPC
+95.5points
- Availability+40.0
- Latency*+26.1
- Correctness*+20.0
- Head freshness*+9.4
The parts add to +95.5, exactly — the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart. Components marked * were measured for only one of the two; the other’s weight is spread across what it does have, which is why the two sides can carry different weights for the same row.
