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.
More than an index entry, but the surface is still mostly links rather than artifacts — the cohort most likely to move a full band from modest, well-targeted work.
API Evangelist profiles Mina Protocol the way a machine reads it — 4 machine-readable artifacts across 2 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Mina Protocol scores 23.8/100 (emerging), with a separate agent-readiness read of 10/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile Mina Protocol
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Mina Protocol. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.
APIs 2
Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.
Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.
Mina GraphQL API
Native GraphQL API served by the Mina daemon (default port 3085) to query blockchain data — accounts, blocks, transactions, pending pool, daemon status — and submit signed trans...
Mina Rosetta API
First-party implementation of the Coinbase Rosetta API (Data API + Construction API) for blockchain integration, historical data queries, and exchange support.
Security Posture 2
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.
