Critical

Token Supply Always Zero, Rendering Token Non-Functional

C-01The `ERC20` contract's `_totalSupply` variable is declared but never initialized in the constructor, nor is there any `_mint` function provided within the contract to increase this supply. Consequently, `totalSupply()` will always return 0, and no tokens can ever be created or transferred. This makes the token completely non-functional and unusable.

Consequently, `totalSupply()` will always return 0, and no tokens can ever be created or transferred. This makes the token completely non-functional and unusable.

FixImplement a `_mint` function, typically restricted to an owner or deployer, to allow for the creation of new tokens. Alternatively, initialize `_totalSupply` and mint an initial supply to a designated address within the constructor. Ensure that the `_balances` mapping is updated accordingly during minting.

Non-Standard Decimals Value

L-01The `decimals()` function returns a value of 9. While technically valid, the common standard for ERC20 tokens is 18 decimals, mimicking Ethereum's Wei. Deviating from this standard can lead to display inconsistencies or misinterpretations in wallets, exchanges, and DApps that assume 18 decimals.

Deviating from this standard can lead to display inconsistencies or misinterpretations in wallets, exchanges, and DApps that assume 18 decimals.

FixConsider changing the `decimals()` function to return 18 for better compatibility and user experience across the broader EVM ecosystem. If 9 decimals is an intentional design choice, ensure all front-end applications and integrations are aware of and correctly handle this value.

ERC20 `approve` Race Condition Warning

I-01The contract's comments correctly highlight the known race condition vulnerability associated with the `approve` function, where an attacker might exploit unfortunate transaction ordering to spend both the old and new allowance amounts. The contract provides `increaseAllowance` and `decreaseAllowance` as mitigations.

IssueThe contract's comments correctly highlight the known race condition vulnerability associated with the `approve` function, where an attacker might exploit unfortunate transaction ordering to spend both the old and new allowance amounts. The contract provides `increaseAllowance` and `decreaseAllowance` as mitigations.

FixEducate users and integrated applications to prefer `increaseAllowance` and `decreaseAllowance` over directly calling `approve` when modifying an existing allowance. This helps prevent potential double-spend scenarios related to the `approve` race condition.

Category Ratings

TechnicalLow8/10

The contract is based on a standard ERC20 implementation, demonstrating good code structure and adherence to common patterns (7.1 Architecture, 7.2 Code Security). However, a critical functional flaw exists where the `_totalSupply` is never initialized or increased, and no `_mint` function is provided, making the token non-functional (C-01). The `decimals()` function returns 9, which is non-standard but not a vulnerability (L-01). The contract correctly includes `increaseAllowance` and `decreaseAllowance` to mitigate the `approve` race condition (I-01).

GovernanceLow7/10

The contract implements a standard ERC20 token with no complex economic models or governance mechanisms (7.4 Economic, 7.5 Governance). The prefill indicates ownership is renounced, which eliminates central control risks and enhances decentralization (7.3 Access Control). Due to the critical functional flaw (C-01), the economic impact is currently zero as no tokens can exist or be traded.

UpgradesLow9/10

The contract is not designed as an upgradeable proxy (7.7 Upgrades). It is a standard, non-upgradeable implementation, which simplifies its architecture and removes upgrade-related risks.

Holder Composition

20.0% in top 10

2.9% in wallets17.1% in contracts

Effective Concentration9.8%

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.

Liquidity Depth

$93.8K across 3 pairs

Pancakeswap v2WBNBanalysed$93.8K Pancakeswap v2Subject 3$2 SushiswapWBNB$0

The risk score reads depth across every pair. The volume figure and the volume-to-liquidity ratio elsewhere on this page describe only the pair this audit analysed, so the two are not directly comparable.

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
