Executive SummaryAI Copilot

The DIME contract is an upgradeable ERC-20 token utilizing the UUPS proxy pattern and OpenZeppelin's standard libraries for features like minting, burning, pausing, and access control. The analysis did not identify any specific technical vulnerabilities in the provided code. However, the contract design centralizes significant control in specific roles, such as the ability to mint new tokens, pause transfers, and upgrade the contract logic.

What the token's controller can do

QA-POWERSThe contract lets its controller — an owner that could not be resolved — mint new supply; pause all transfers. Nothing independent vouches for whoever holds them, so each is a live risk to holders.

Category Ratings

TechnicalLow7/10

The DIME contract leverages robust and widely audited OpenZeppelin libraries for its core ERC-20 functionality, pausing mechanism, and access control (7.1 Architecture). Functions like `transfer`, `balanceOf`, and `approve` adhere to ERC-20 standards. The implementation of `pause()`, `unpause()`, and `mint(address,uint256)` is straightforward, relying on the `onlyRole` modifier for access control (7.2 Code Security). No specific code security vulnerabilities were identified in the provided analysis.

GovernanceHigh1/10

The contract's economic and governance model is highly centralized, relying on `AccessControlUpgradeable` to manage critical functions (7.3 Access Control, 7.4 Economic, 7.5 Governance). The `MINTER_ROLE` can arbitrarily increase the token supply via `mint(address,uint256)`, potentially devaluing existing tokens. The `PAUSER_ROLE` can halt all token transfers using `pause()` and `unpause()`, impacting liquidity and user access. The `DEFAULT_ADMIN_ROLE` controls these roles and the upgrade mechanism, concentrating significant power.

UpgradesHigh1/10

DIME is implemented as an upgradeable UUPS proxy, allowing the contract's logic to be modified in the future (7.7 Upgrades). The `upgradeToAndCall(address,bytes)` function, which facilitates upgrades, is protected by a role, which is a good security practice. However, the inherent ability to upgrade means that the contract's future behavior is subject to the control of the role holders, introducing a potential risk if these roles are compromised or misused.

Holder Composition

97.7% in top 10
0.0% in wallets97.7% in contracts
Effective Concentration39.1%

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.

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.

What Raised This Score

6 factors
  • Owner can pause all transfers
  • Mintable supply — no cap found, dilution unbounded
  • Upgradeable proxy — the admin can replace the logic
  • Ownership status UNKNOWN (owner could not be resolved)
  • Liquidity NOT locked (100% of the pool; this pool is 90% of DEX liquidity) — who holds it cannot be verified
  • Top-10 concentration > 30% (97.7% total → 39.1% effective; 0.0% in EOAs, 97.7% in contracts)

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
