Introducing Rootdata: a potent Web3 early project exploration tool and data platform

How to discover great early web projects and catch signals of market trends has become one of the most important issues in the crypto industry. Despite the seemingly coldest crypto winter, there are great projects that continue to build and would shine in the next cycle.

Meanwhile, project information in Web3 grows in quantity and density, giving rise to many on-chain data analysis tools such as Dune and Nansen. However, sometimes on-chain data cannot show a full picture of complicated projects, and probably less than 1/3 of web3 projects have valid on-chain data.

How to check the investment parties, teams, news, and other aspects of projects? How to know the development of the public blockchains ecosystem in full view? How to know the portfolios and preferences of VCs? There is no such data-integrating platform until the rise of Rootdata, which enables people to check all information they need in one place. Rootdata is devoted to helping users check all the information in one stop, where the relationship between projects, related people, and VCs is visualized to improve the efficiency of obtaining data and finding early-quality projects.

Rootdata provides investment and financing data of the crypto market, screen, filter, and optimize the current information of the crypto industry, and present the label, blockchain, team, investment background, related news, and parent/sub-organization of the projects in a visual and structured way to relieve people from the mass complicate data.

At present, Rootdata has launched seven function modules, including fundraising, projects, investors, ecosystems, tags, dashboards and project archives, and other practical small functions being developed. In this article, we will explain all the functions of Rootdata platform in detail to help users better understand and use the product.

On the "Fundraising" page, Rootdata has displayed almost all the public funding records in the crypto space so far in chronological order, with a total of nearly 4,000 items. Users can filter by different tags, funding sizes, blockchains, rounds, and valuations. For example, they can select NFTFi projects with a funding size between $1 million and $5 million by setting a filter.

On the "Projects" page, Rootdata has collected more than 6400 Web3 projects, which are sorted by the latest collection time by default (you can also set comprehensive sorting based on project popularity). Users can find the latest collected Web3 projects, and over 100 new projects are added every week.

At the same time, users can also filter projects by different tags, blockchains, investors, token status, latest valuation, location, and operation status, such as "DeFi projects on Solana that have no tokens", "projects launched testnet on Aptos", "projects invested by Binance Labs that are not yet live", "NFT projects founded in the UK", which greatly improves the efficiency of project search.

By clicking on any project, users can enter the project homepage and view the detailed introduction of the project, the blockchain, funding records, related news, similar products, and other information. All project descriptions are compiled by Rootdata professional analysts based on the project's official website, public reports, and internal verification, to ensure accuracy, comprehensiveness, and timeliness.

On the "Investors" page, Rootdata has collected more than 3000 investment institutions and individuals in the Web3 field. They are divided into such items as crypto-native funds, traditional funds, crypto projects, and angel investors based on their respective attributes so that users can filter them by category. Users can also filter by choosing the founded time and operating status of institutions.

On the "Ecosystem" page, Rootdata ranks over 150 Layer1/2 projects according to the number of ecosystem projects. Users can view the development status of any Layer1/2 ecosystems and specific ecosystem projects and can also filter their ecosystems in detail by segmented tags, rounds, valuation, and operation status, including not launched projects and testnet projects.

Take Arbitrum ecosystem as an example, Rootdata contains 340 ecological projects in total. In this interface, users can still filter the crypto projects by segmented tags, rounds, valuation, operation status, etc. Also, un-launched projects and testnet projects are deliberately marked.

On the "Tags" page, Rootdata categorizes all Web3 projects into nine major tracks: Infrastructure, DeFi, NFT, Gaming, CeFi, DAO, Tools & Information Services, Social Entertainment, and Others. Each sector has more vertical categories and labels, such as NFTFi, NFT AMM, and Digital Fashion under the NFT track, and Investment DAO, Service DAO, and DAO Solutions under the DAO sector, so that users can find projects in niches.

On the "Dashboard" page, Rootdata visualizes the massive amount of investment and financing data, so that users can easily understand the trend changes of primary market investment and financing in the time period that they choose, the number and amount of financing of each sector in each month and quarter, the 10 projects with the largest financing scale, and the ecological situation of different public chains.

On the "Radars" page, Rootdata has summarized many popular data product and tool websites by their different functions and purposes, including versatile tools, DeFi tools, NFT tools, and learning and education tools to give users more choices.

On the "Project Archives" page, Rootdata clusters and integrates scattered data based on their different features, thus aggregating them into a single project list. Users can learn about projects such as "2022 Crypto Dead Projects List", "Projects incubated by Binance Lab" and "Coinbase Alumina Founded Projects".

For example, the "2022 Crypto Dead Projects List" listed all "dead" projects due to suspended operation, bankruptcy, or website malfunctions and has gained great circulation on social media platforms.

Also, Rootdata provides some practical functions on the main page such as Recently MainNet Launched and Recently TestNet launched, where users can find more investment opportunities.

By methodically sifting out project information in the present market and examining the development goals and trends of the crypto industry, Rootdata, a simple and easy-to-use data platform, aspires to assist crypto practitioners and enthusiasts in discovering more high-quality, intriguing, and reliable projects in a timely manner.
