Ten days ago, we quietly launched Thrive Power List in beta. The goal of the Power List is simple: make real power public.

No hype. Just verified value. 

The response from the community has been immediate: tens of thousands of reviews have been done with over 90% consensus!

And now, the system just took a major step forward. Today, we’re shipping the first major feature upgrade to the Thrive Power List.

This update strengthens the core of Thrive: integrity, accountability, and trust at scale.

Introducing Deposits: Accuracy Matters

Every Builder submission and Guardian review now requires a 5 Thrive Point deposit.

Why? Because verification only works if accuracy matters.

• If a review is accurate, the deposit is returned.
• If it’s inaccurate, the deposit is taken.

This creates a simple but powerful incentive: Thoughtful reviews win. Low-effort or dishonest reviews lose. 

The result is higher signal, stronger consensus, and a Power List that can’t be gamed.

‍

Dispute Resolution Is Now Live

Verification doesn’t stop at consensus.

Every review is now fully auditable from your profile, and for the first 48 hours after consensus, any participant can dispute a decision.

Here’s how it works:

• A dispute requires a 10 Point Thrive Point deposit
• If the dispute is valid, the deposit is returned
• If it’s invalid, the deposit is taken
  

This ensures disputes are raised only when something actually matters; not just to slow the system down.

When a dispute is raised, the decision escalates to top-accuracy Guardians and administrators, who make the final call.

The impact is clear: appeals are welcome. Spam is not.

Continuous UX Improvements

Alongside these upgrades, we’ve shipped improvements across profiles and review visibility, making it easier to:

• Track your submissions and reviews
• Audit decisions over time
• Understand where consensus was reached, or challenged

This is the groundwork for long-term reputation and accountability.

Early Usage: Proof the Model Works

The most important signal isn’t features, it’s usage.

We’ve written a blog post and shared two tweets about the Thrive Power List. That’s it. 

Not a dollar spent on marketing. 

Yet in 10 days, the Thrive Power List has already seen:

• 19,565 total reviews
• 8,490 signal entries
• 745 Projects with Power Scores
• 147 unique Guardians reviewing

Value in crypto isn’t theoretical anymore. It’s being verified live, driven by the community.

‍

What This Means

The Thrive Power List isn’t just a list. 

It’s a living value layer for crypto’s real economy:

• Builders earn reputation through execution
• Guardians are rewarded for consensus
• Capital gets clearer signals
• And hype gets filtered out

We’re just getting started.

Verified value > hype.

And now, the Thrive Power List is making value visible.
