The ElGato token is a standard ERC-20 implementation with ownership renounced. The contract logic is straightforward, and the renouncement of ownership effectively disables all administrative functions, mitigating risks associated with centralized control. A minor vulnerability regarding tx.origin usage was identified, though its impact is limited in the current state.

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
MediumUse of tx.origin for Authorization
The contract uses tx.origin to determine authorization or logic within the balanceOf function. This is a security risk because an attacker can create a malicious contract that calls the token contract, tricking the logic into identifying the original transaction initiator rather than the immediate caller.CD-01
Issue
The contract uses tx.origin to determine authorization or logic within the balanceOf function. This is a security risk because an attacker can create a malicious contract that calls the token contract, tricking the logic into identifying the original transaction initiator rather than the immediate caller.
Fix
Replace all instances of tx.origin with msg.sender to ensure that authorization and logic are tied to the immediate caller, which is the standard and secure practice for smart contract interactions.

InfoWho holds the supply
The ten largest holders own 12.1% of supply. Of that, 7.4% in DEX pools — not holders that can sell, so excluded from the concentration score. What remains: 3.9% in wallets, 0.8% in other contracts. 697 holders in total.QA-HOLDERS

Analysis
AI Copilotas of audit · Oct 20The contract follows standard ERC-20 patterns with 7.1 Architecture and 7.2 Code Security being well-implemented. 7.3 Access Control is currently inert due to ownership renouncement, ensuring no further administrative changes can occur. 7.6 External dependencies are minimal, relying on standard OpenZeppelin-like libraries for arithmetic and ownership.
7.4 Economic and 7.5 Governance risks are effectively nullified by the renouncement of ownership. There are no active governance mechanisms or inflationary parameters that can be adjusted by any party. The token economy is fixed, providing stability for holders.
7.7 Upgrades are not supported as the contract is not a proxy. 7.8 Operations are static, meaning the contract behavior is immutable. No upgrade risk exists for this implementation.
The protocol is currently in a secure, immutable state due to the renouncement of ownership.
No further action is required for the current deployment as administrative functions are permanently disabled. For future deployments, ensure that any use of tx.origin is replaced with msg.sender to prevent potential phishing or contract-based authorization bypasses, even if the current impact is negligible.
