CoinGecko has migrated the cybersecurity component of its Centralized Exchange Trust Score from CER.live to CORE3, Hacken’s risk infrastructure for digital assets, covering 166 exchanges while limiting individual score changes to no more than two percentage points. CORE3 assessed 193 exchanges as of September 1, 2026, finding that only 24 had verified Proof of Reserves, 53 had disclosed penetration test results and 99 ran live bug bounty programs; just 10 met all three criteria, while 94 provided no evidence on any component. The model evaluates Security, Solvency and Transparency—weighted at 50%, 30% and 20%—feeding a Probability of Loss estimate of fund-loss risk from breaches, insolvency or operational failure, and users still see cybersecurity ratings with those three indicators. CoinGecko Co-founder and CEO Bobby Ong said the integration strengthens forward-looking risk assessment without disrupting scores users already rely on, while Hacken CEO Dyma Budorin said closing the disclosure gap requires weighing solvency and transparency alongside security. CoinGecko’s broader Trust Score still weights liquidity at 50%, cybersecurity at 20%, regulation at 15%, incident history at 10% and proof of reserves at 5%, with updates said to appear within 48 hours of changes following 2026 methodology and proof-of-reserves work.
