Observation coverage
Only some indicators were checked. A low score does not mean safe. Unchecked indicators are neither risky nor safe.

📊 Of the 23,273 tokens we have inspected, 4% score a higher risk than this coin. — This is a relative position within the sample we inspected, which was built by deliberately hunting scams and rugs, so it is not a general market distribution. A ranking is not a statement of safety.

This assessment is an uncalibrated estimate of fraud patterns — not a price or investment judgment.

Axis cards show where signals are, not a per-axis score — the %p contribution is a simple sum, while the actual combine uses diminishing returns (overlaps add less).

Can you sell? — Sellable as currently observed — but this is not a safety guarantee

This only means no sell-block signals were observed at inspection time. 4 indicator(s) remain unverified, and upgrades or owner actions can change the state at any time.

Collection & verification method →

Risk signals (probability contribution)

MEDIUM Upgradeable proxy — contract logic can change +12

This is an upgradeable proxy, so the contract logic can change after launch.

MEDIUM Ownership not renounced — owner powers remain (0x9e975d3024b9551e28245b4cec92e4deb1a5fb64) +12

Owner powers are still active, so the owner-only functions listed above can actually be exercised.

⚖️ In projects that keep distributing rewards or airdrops, this is a common design. Even so, the fact that the privilege exists is unchanged, and the risk does not disappear.

HIGH Liquidity (LP) not locked — rug pull possible (Locked 0.0%) +35

The liquidity (LP) is not locked, so the operator can pull the liquidity in a rug pull.

HIGH Supply concentrated in a few wallets (Max single holding 99.8%) +35

A few wallets monopolize the supply, so a single sell-off could collapse the price.

MEDIUM Creator wallet holds a high share of supply (99.8%) +14

The creator wallet holds a large amount, posing a dumping risk.

HIGH Impersonates a well-known coin's symbol (not the official contract) ('USDT' suspected impersonation) +38

It borrows a famous coin's symbol but is not that coin's official contract address. Impersonating a well-known asset is a textbook scam tactic.

MEDIUM Suspected lookalike — an older, larger token with the same symbol exists ('USDT' older same-name token exists — liquidity $4,897,593,686 (4,898x), first observed 19 days earlier) +12

An older token with much deeper liquidity uses the same symbol on this chain. This may be a clone imitating the popular token, so always cross-check the contract address. (It could also be an unrelated project that merely shares the name.)

🟢 Positive signals (Green Flags)

These are observed facts, not approvals — appearing on a listing or data service means a profile exists there, not that anyone vetted the project.

GOOD Source code verified and published

The contract source is public and verified, so anyone can check its behavior.

⚖️ However, this is an upgradeable proxy: the owner can swap the implementation, so this fact can change at any time — it is an observation now, not a promise.

GOOD Ample liquidity ($1,000,000)

Liquidity is deep, so the risk of price shock or difficulty exiting is low.

⚖️ However, this liquidity is not locked — the deeper it is, the more the operator can pull out at once.

Web reputation & whitepaper check (optional · about 10s)

The score above is based on on-chain indicators. This button searches the public web now for scam allegations and whitepaper content (no re-run of the on-chain check). Web search is paid and slow, so we do not run it automatically on every token — only manually when needed. Once run, the result is saved and shown automatically from then on. Web allegations are not conclusions, so verify them directly.

Liquidity & volume (for rug-risk judgment · not a price/value assessment)

Total liquidity $1,000,000 1 trading pairs combined
Total 24h volume $12 1 trading pairs combined

Main pair (deepest pool) liquidity $1,000,000 (pancakeswap) · the totals combine every pair on this chain · View pool ↗

⚠ Note the two different bases: the risk score and signals are computed from the main pair alone, while the figures above are the sum of all pairs. A low main-pair pool can therefore raise a "very low liquidity" signal even when the combined total looks large.
