Exact factors
- Owner can change any holder's balance (seize or credit tokens)
- Hidden owner — control survives an apparent renounce
- Mintable supply — no cap found, dilution unbounded
- Ownership status UNKNOWN (owner could not be resolved)
- Liquidity NOT locked (100% of the pool; this pool is 100% of DEX liquidity) — who holds it cannot be verified
- Liquidity < $50k ($26,908 across 4 pairs — thin market)
- Top-10 concentration > 30% (92.9% total → 37.9% effective; 2.0% in EOAs, 89.8% in contracts; 1.0% 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

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.

MediumPrivileged Token Minting Capability
The mint(address,uint256) function allows an address with the MINTER_ROLE to create new tokens and assign them to any address. This increases the total supply of the token, which can dilute the value of existing token holdings for all token holders.CP-01
Issue
The mint(address,uint256) function allows an address with the MINTER_ROLE to create new tokens and assign them to any address. This increases the total supply of the token, which can dilute the value of existing token holdings for all token holders.
Fix
Token holders should be aware that a specific role has the power to mint new tokens. It is crucial to understand who holds the MINTER_ROLE and the policies governing its use. Consider implementing a multi-signature wallet for this role or a time-locked mechanism for minting operations to enhance security and transparency.

One of them — a contract, 0xc07e…2f3a — holds 99.9% and can remove that share at once; who controls it is not visible on-chain, so it is not treated as an independent provider.

InfoWho holds the supply
The ten largest holders own 92.9% of supply. Of that, 1.0% in DEX pools — not holders that can sell, so excluded from the concentration score. What remains: 2.0% in wallets, 89.8% in other contracts. 660 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.

Analysis
AI Copilotas of audit · Oct 14The GainsNetworkToken contract implements the ERC-20 standard, providing standard token functionalities like transfer and balanceOf. It also includes AccessControlEnumerable for managing permissions. A key technical aspect is the mint(address,uint256) function, which allows a specific role to create new tokens. While the core ERC-20 functions appear standard, the presence of this minting capability introduces a technical risk related to supply control (7.2 Code Security).
The contract utilizes AccessControlEnumerable for managing administrative roles, including the MINTER_ROLE. This role-based access control centralizes the power to mint new tokens via the mint function. This economic mechanism allows for an increase in total supply, which could impact token value (7.4 Economic). The governance model relies on the security and trustworthiness of the addresses holding these critical roles (7.5 Governance).
The GainsNetworkToken contract is not designed as an upgradeable proxy. Therefore, there are no upgrade-specific risks associated with proxy patterns or implementation changes (7.7 Upgrades). Any future modifications to the token's logic would require a new deployment and migration process.
Token holders should be fully aware of the centralized control over token supply through the mint function.
It is recommended to establish clear, transparent policies regarding the use of the MINTER_ROLE, including who holds it and under what conditions new tokens can be minted. For enhanced security, consider implementing multi-signature requirements or time-locks for critical administrative actions, especially for the MINTER_ROLE, to prevent single points of failure and provide a window for community oversight.
