This repository is designed to manage metadata and related resources for decentralized entities, such as vaults, networks, operators, and tokens. It provides a standardized structure for organizing and accessing information about these entities. By contributing to this repository, you help create a reliable, decentralized knowledge base. After being merged, this data will be used in app.symbiotic.fi to provide users with accurate and up-to-date information about various entities in the DeFi ecosystem.
The repository is organized as follows:
repository/
├── vaults/
│ ├── 0x<address>/
│ │ ├── info.json
│ │ └── logo.png (optional)
├── networks/
├── operators/
├── tokens/
Each entity is identified by its Ethereum address (0x...
), and its data is stored in a folder named after the address. Inside this folder, there must be a file info.json
containing metadata, and optionally, an icon file logo.png
.
- Determine the entity type: Decide whether the entity belongs to
