Markets/en/Portal:Model/Statistics:Model
Section 5 of the market portal model. Neutral example content: replace with market-specific indicators when instantiating.
Statistics
What this section holds
Each market portal publishes anonymized usage statistics that show trends, ordered from the most important indicator to the least important. Statistics are published by design: they are aggregate data, never individual contract variables. Names, amounts and addresses typed into contracts stay private; counts, rates and trends are public.
The ordered indicator list (neutral model)
The order below reflects what matters most for judging a market's health. Each market keeps this order unless its community argues for a different one.
- Completion rate: share of signed contracts completed to mutual satisfaction. The single most telling number.
- Dispute rate: share of contracts that entered a formal dispute. Low and stable is the goal; zero over a long period usually means nobody dares to report.
- Amendment rate: share of contracts modified at least once. A healthy sign: living contracts adapt instead of breaking.
- Median time to signature: from first contact to signed contract. Measures how usable the templates are.
- Mutual satisfaction: average of both-sided evaluations. Both sides, always: a market where only one side is happy is extractive.
- Repeat contracts: share of parties who contract together again. Trust made visible.
- Active participants: people with at least one live contract in the period. Volume comes last: a small honest market beats a large sick one.
Example presentation (illustrative figures)
| # | Indicator | This quarter | Trend |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Completion rate | 96% | stable |
| 2 | Dispute rate | 2.1% | falling |
| 3 | Amendment rate | 38% | rising |
| 4 | Median time to signature | 2.4 days | falling |
| 5 | Mutual satisfaction | 4.5 / 5 | stable |
| 6 | Repeat contracts | 41% | rising |
| 7 | Active participants | 180 | rising |
All figures in this table are illustrative. A real portal replaces them with measured values and states the measurement period.
Anonymization rules
- Publish aggregates only; no statistic may describe fewer than [10] contracts (threshold per market).
- No combination of published statistics may allow re-identification of a person or a deal; small markets aggregate over longer periods.
- State the period and the population next to every figure.
- Mark every non-measured figure as illustrative.
