Mina Protocol

Mina Protocol is a lightweight, layer-1 blockchain powered by zero-knowledge proofs (zk-SNARKs) that maintains a constant ~22KB chain size regardless of usage, using the Ouroboros Samasika proof-of-stake consensus. Developers build privacy-preserving smart contracts called zkApps in TypeScript with the o1js framework, sign transactions with mina-signer, scaffold and deploy projects with the zkApp CLI, and integrate with the network through the Mina daemon's native GraphQL API and a first-party Coinbase Rosetta API implementation for exchanges and data indexing. Originally surfaced as a portfolio company of Multicoin Capital and enriched here from Mina's public developer surface.

Mina Protocol publishes 2 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Crypto Web3, Blockchain, Zero-Knowledge Proofs, and zk-SNARKs.

Mina Protocol’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, changelog, CLI, sandbox, authentication, and 9 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/mina-protocol: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
