🛡️ Security Signals
What are security signals?
9 automated on-chain and off-chain checks that run on every project:
Honeypot Detector — can the token be sold?
DEX Liquidity — is there real trading activity?
Liquidity Lock — is the LP locked?
Deployer History — has this wallet rugge before?
Token Distribution — are whales in control?
Audit Badges — has it been audited?
Social Proof — does it have a real community?
Whale Tracker — are there suspicious large transfers?
Contract Fingerprint — is it verified and transparent?
Are the signals always accurate?
Signals rely on third-party APIs and public blockchain data — they are informational, not definitive. A project can pass all signals and still be a scam, or fail some for legitimate reasons. Always do your own research.
What chains do signals support?
Honeypot, deployer history, DEX liquidity, and contract fingerprint work on 20+ EVM chains. Token distribution supports EVM chains, Solana, Tron, TON, and NEAR. See the Supported Chains page for the full list.
📝 Projects
