OpenSea vs Zora
A tie, on what we measured. Both score 8.76/10. The difference between them is not something our probe can see, so we are not going to invent one.
Last collection 2026-08-25: probed 252 services, measured 233, over a 90-day window.

OpenSea
8.76 / 10100% measuredLive 9.7 yr (since founding (2017), public record). Most failures happen young, so time survived is real signal.
Median 342 ms to first byte from the live interface, our own probe, slowest sample discarded, single location. Compared only within this category.
Publishes a machine-readable incident archive (statuspage) — its whole record can be checked by anyone, including against us.
Median 334 min from published report to resolution across 1 logged incidents. Scored on repair speed, not on how many it logged.
Incident repair time: Median 334 min from published report to resolution across 1 logged incidents. Scored on repair speed, not on how many it logged.
Zora
8.76 / 1058% measuredLive 6.7 yr (since founding (2020), public record). Most failures happen young, so time survived is real signal.
Median 785 ms to first byte from the live interface, our own probe, slowest sample discarded, single location. Compared only within this category.
Their status host turned our probe away — the page exists and we could not read it, so n/a rather than a mark against them.
No incident feed we can read, so no repair time to compute.
Latency: Median 785 ms to first byte from the live interface, our own probe, slowest sample discarded, single location. Compared only within this category.
