Exact factors
  • Owner can pause all transfers
  • A privileged address controls a switch that decides whether transfers go through
  • Mintable supply — no cap found, dilution unbounded
  • Liquidity NOT locked (100% of the pool) — who holds it cannot be verified
  • Top-10 concentration > 30% (100.0% total → 48.3% effective; 16.3% in EOAs, 80.0% in contracts; 3.7% burned, locked or in pools excluded)

Each factor is an on-chain fact recorded at the time of this analysis. The score is computed from them by a deterministic function, so the same contract returns the same score for anyone who runs the audit. How scores are computed

Early-stage analysis. This token has limited on-chain history (10h old). New tokens carry elevated risk — data may change rapidly. Always verify independently before investing.

How holder types affect the score

Share held by contracts — treasury, vesting, bridge or staking — is discounted against share held by wallets when the score is computed: a contract cannot decide to sell the way an anonymous holder can, though it can still be drained or voted to sell. Effective concentration is the figure the risk score is actually calculated from.

Security Findings

2 Medium5 Info
Medium

Centralized Control Over Token Supply

The owner has the authority to call updateMintRate and release, which can increase the total supply of tokens. This allows the owner to dilute the holdings of existing token holders at their discretion.CP-01

Issue

The owner has the authority to call updateMintRate and release, which can increase the total supply of tokens. This allows the owner to dilute the holdings of existing token holders at their discretion.

Fix

Implement a timelock for all supply-altering functions or transition ownership to a community-governed DAO to prevent unilateral changes to the token supply.

Status

Unresolved

Medium

Centralized Control Over Transfer Functionality

The owner can use lockPool and unlockPool to enable or disable transfers for specific liquidity pools. This grants the owner the power to effectively freeze user funds or prevent trading activity.CP-05

Issue

The owner can use lockPool and unlockPool to enable or disable transfers for specific liquidity pools. This grants the owner the power to effectively freeze user funds or prevent trading activity.

Fix

Remove the ability to arbitrarily lock pools or restrict this functionality to a decentralized governance vote to ensure that liquidity remains accessible to users.

Unresolved

Info

Who holds the supply

The ten largest holders own 100.0% of supply. Of that, 3.7% burned — not holders that can sell, so excluded from the concentration score. What remains: 16.3% in wallets, 80.0% in other contracts. The deployer/owner wallet itself holds 16.2%. 2,038 holders in total.QA-HOLDERS

Watch the largest wallets that are not exchanges, pools or locks — those are the ones that can move the price.

Info

Recently launched — less than a day of market history

The token's oldest DEX pool is less than a day old. Age is not part of the risk score — a new token is not a risky one by default — but a short history means fewer trades and holder changes behind the facts in this report.QA-RECENT

Issue

The token's oldest DEX pool is less than a day old. Age is not part of the risk score — a new token is not a risky one by default — but a short history means fewer trades and holder changes behind the facts in this report.

Fix

Re-check ownership, liquidity and holder distribution as the token matures; those are the facts that move early.

Analysis

AI Copilotas of audit · Oct 21
Executive SummaryWhat the contract is and what the review found

The DERC20 contract is a standard ERC-20 implementation with additional governance and vesting features. The protocol relies heavily on a centralized owner to manage token supply inflation and liquidity pool access. While the code follows standard OpenZeppelin patterns, the high degree of administrative control presents a significant centralization risk to token holders.

Technical8/10Low risk

The contract utilizes well-audited OpenZeppelin libraries for ERC-20 and governance functionality. 7.1 Architecture is modular, and 7.2 Code Security is high due to the use of standard, battle-tested primitives. 7.3 Access Control is strictly enforced via Ownable, though the scope of administrative power is broad.

Governance2/10High risk

7.4 Economic and 7.5 Governance aspects are centralized under the contract owner. The owner has the ability to mint tokens and toggle pool access, which directly impacts 7.6 External liquidity interactions. These powers allow for significant influence over the token's market dynamics.

Upgrades3/10High risk

The contract is not upgradeable, which eliminates 7.7 Upgrades risks. 7.8 Operations are straightforward, relying on the owner to trigger vesting and minting events. The lack of proxy patterns ensures immutability of the logic.

Final RecommendationWhat to do about this score

To improve security, consider transitioning ownership to a decentralized governance model, such as a multi-signature wallet or a DAO, to mitigate the risks associated with a single point of failure.

Implementing a timelock on sensitive administrative functions like updateMintRate would provide transparency and allow the community to react to significant changes in token supply. Ensure that the owner's private keys are managed with institutional-grade security practices. Regularly audit the vesting schedules and minting parameters to ensure they remain aligned with the protocol's long-term economic objectives.
