Web3SOC introduces four “maturity tiers” and a self‑assessment tool that help projects gauge readiness for institutional partnerships

Quotes that support claims

At the heart of Web3SOC There are so-called “maturity levels,” which classify DeFi projects between levels 1 and 4 — from the most established to the nascent. This approach is reminiscent of models such as SOC 1 and SOC 2, widely used in the corporate sector to assess internal controls and information security practices.

The standards include a self-assessment tool to gauge readiness for institutional partnerships, as well as a set of “maturity tiers” for projects to determine whether they are prepared to be used by major institutions.
