13 live benchmarks. ~150 (provider × chain) probe pairs. Every metric is queryable on the public Prometheus and reproducible from the harness source.
-
+
+
+ OpenChainBench is funded by Mobula because we needed honest infrastructure benchmark data internally and saw no neutral source existed. The site is open-sourced because the industry needs it.
+
+
+ Mobula competes in five live benchmarks: aggregator head lag, bridge fee, bridge quote latency, network coverage and metadata coverage. Mobula currently leads aggregator head lag and bridge quote latency. This is a real conflict of interest and we want it visible above the fold, not buried.
+
+
+ Three safeguards stand against the conflict:
+
+
+
·Open Prometheus data. Every number on the site is a literal quantile_over_time query. Anyone can hit our /api/citable or /api/stat/<slug> endpoint and re-derive the leaderboard with their own aggregation. If Mobula were inflating its rank, the raw data would show it.
+
·Open harness source. Every harness is on GitHub under harnesses/. Clone, run docker compose up, your /metrics endpoint emits the same numbers ours does within 30 seconds.
+
·Public methodology review. We invite external review and ship the fixes publicly. In June 2026 the Coinpaprika data team flagged four issues on the stablecoin peg and oracle deviation benches. We shipped three of them in pull requests #349, #352 and #353 within twenty-four hours and pushed back on the fourth with citations to CME, Chainlink and CoinGecko convention.
+
+
+ We do not run a paid tier. We do not sell ranking slots. We do not take provider sponsorship in exchange for inclusion. There is no token. If you spot any deviation from this policy, file a private security advisory and we will treat it as the integrity incident it would be.
+
+
+ Hosting and infrastructure costs are paid by Mobula. The site runs on Vercel; harnesses run on Railway. We are open to grant funding that preserves editorial independence, but we will not accept funding from any party we benchmark.
+
+
+
Every benchmark is a YAML spec plus a harness. The spec describes what to measure, which providers, which Prometheus queries hold the numbers; the harness runs continuously on Railway and exposes those metrics. A single shared Prometheus scrapes every harness; the site queries Prometheus directly and re-renders every minute. Every provider is rendered with equal visual weight. readers do their own ranking.
