How Do Third-Party Rating Agencies Assess WEEX’s Asset Security?

By: WEEX|11/13/2026 04:05:00

TL;DR

WEEX’s CoinGecko Trust Score was 9/10 when checked. This is a composite spot-exchange score, not a standalone asset-security rating.
CoinGecko converts CORE3’s Security score into a cybersecurity contribution of up to 2 points.
CORE3 separates security, solvency and transparency.
Based on verified third-party rating records dated Nov 13, 2026, WEEX received a CORE3 Security score of 90/100. CER.live recorded Server Security at 91/100 and User Security at 92/100.

Third-party platforms assess WEEX through exchange-level indicators, technical security evidence and reserve-related disclosures. CoinGecko displayed a Trust Score of 9/10 for WEEX on November 13, 2026. Its cybersecurity component draws on CORE3’s Security score. CORE3 also assesses solvency and transparency, while CER.live is transitioning to CORE3. These linked sources provide different perspectives, rather than three independent audits of user assets.

Which assessments should you compare?

Provider	Metric	How to interpret it
CoinGecko	Trust Score: 9/10	Verified on November 13, 2026; applies to the spot-exchange profile.
CoinGecko	Cybersecurity component	Uses CORE3 data. Displayed provider-data updated on October 29, 2026.
CORE3	Security: 90/100	Read the Security section separately from the broader risk metric.
CER.live	Server Security: 91/100 User Security: 92/100	Check the profile and methodology version during the transition to CORE3.

How does CoinGecko assess WEEX?

CoinGecko combines several exchange-level indicators in its Trust Score. Cybersecurity is one component, alongside factors such as liquidity and reserve-related information.

CoinGecko’s published conversion table maps CORE3’s Exchange Security Score to the following contribution:

CORE3 Exchange Security Score	CoinGecko cybersecurity points
80–100	2
70–79	1.5
50–69	1
Below 50	0

The conversion works from a verified CORE3 score to a points band. CoinGecko’s overall Trust Score cannot be used to reconstruct the underlying Security score.

How does CORE3 assess exchanges?

CORE3’s published methodology allocates 50% of its calculation score to security, 30% to solvency and 20% to transparency.

Assessment area	Examples of evidence considered
Security	Server and account controls, certification evidence, penetration testing, bug bounties and fund-related criteria.
Solvency	Reserve ownership, the users and assets covered by reserve assessments, and supporting financial evidence.
Transparency	Wallet disclosures and evidence concerning incident response.

CORE3 converts its combined calculation into a Probability of Loss (PoL) score, where lower values indicate lower assessed risk. CoinGecko uses the Security section, not the combined PoL score.

How does CER.live assess exchanges?

CER.live’s published framework weights server security at 12%, user security at 15%, penetration testing at 25%, bug bounty at 25%, ISO 27001 at 10%, CryptoCurrency Security Standard (CCSS) at 10% and an insurance-fund category at 3%. These are scoring categories, not confirmation that WEEX holds every qualification listed.

CER.live states that it is transitioning to CORE3 and replacing security ratings with Probability of Loss scoring. Compare dates and metric definitions before comparing old grades with newer results.

CER.live methodology and migration notice

What evidence sits behind the indicators?

CoinGecko’s guidance explains that penetration-test indicators depend on coverage, report recency and unresolved findings. Reports must fall within the preceding 12 months; web, API, iOS and Android coverage each contribute to the assessment. Its Proof of Reserves audit indicator requires a valid third-party audit that includes evidence of reserve-wallet ownership.

This makes scope important. A test covering one application is not automatically an assessment of every platform system. A reserve report should be read for its snapshot date, including assets, liabilities coverage and verification method.

How are these sources connected?

CoinGecko uses CORE3 for its cybersecurity component, while CER.live describes a transition to CORE3. This shared security-data lineage means the three pages should not be counted as three independent security audits.

However, the platforms are not interchangeable: CoinGecko adds other indicators to its Trust Score, and CORE3’s broader framework extends beyond cybersecurity. Matching labels and dates is essential before drawing comparisons.

What does WEEX disclose itself?

As of November 13, 2026, our Trust Center provides access to Proof of Reserves, security information, official-channel verification and information about the 1,000 BTC Protection Fund. It also links to a public fund wallet for on-chain inspection. These are WEEX disclosures and verification resources; They are separate from third-party ratings.

WEEX Trust Center

When reviewing Proof of Reserves, use the snapshot date and asset scope shown with the relevant data. Check what user liabilities are included and what verification was performed. A snapshot does not establish continuous coverage of every liability.

WEEX Proof of Reserves

For the Protection Fund, inspect the linked wallet and read the applicable terms, eligibility requirements and exclusions. A wallet balance does not establish that every loss is covered. A protection fund and Proof of Reserves serve different purposes and should be assessed separately.

For the operational context behind these disclosures, our security overview explains how account protection, wallet controls and monitoring fit into ongoing security work.

FAQ

How do third-party rating agencies assess WEEX’s asset security?

They assess different evidence under their own frameworks. CoinGecko combines exchange-level indicators and a CORE3-based cybersecurity component. CORE3 examines security, solvency and transparency. CER.live publishes technical security criteria and is transitioning to CORE3.

Verified rating records dated November 13, 2026, show WEEX’s CORE3 Security score at 90/100, with CER.live Server Security at 91/100 and User Security at 92/100. WEEX’s CoinGecko Trust Score was 9/10 on the same date.

Does a high rating guarantee asset safety or reimbursement?

A high rating reflects an assessment under a provider’s methodology; it does not guarantee asset safety or reimbursement. WEEX’s 1,000 BTC Protection Fund is a separate mechanism through which eligible losses may be submitted for review, subject to applicable terms and exclusions. Visit the WEEX Protection Fund page to explore the fund’s public wallet and coverage information.

Where can I check WEEX’s current ratings?

Use the providers’ own profiles linked below. Record the metric name, value and update date together. A missing or unavailable field does not establish a zero score, a failed assessment or the absence of a public disclosure.
