What raised the score
  • Mint capability UNKNOWN
  • Ownership status UNKNOWN
  • LP lock status UNKNOWN — the pool's LP could not be read
  • Top-10 concentration > 50%
  • Contract source not verified — its logic cannot be read
Exact factors
  • Mint capability UNKNOWN (implementation ABI unreadable)
  • Ownership status UNKNOWN (owner could not be resolved)
  • LP lock status UNKNOWN — the pool's LP could not be read
  • Top-10 concentration > 50% (50.1% total → 50.1% effective; 50.1% in EOAs, 0.0% in contracts)
  • Contract source NOT verified — its logic cannot be read

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 (21h 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.

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 31
Executive SummaryWhat the contract is and what the review found

The contract at the provided address is not verified on the Base block explorer. Consequently, the source code is unavailable for security review. Investors should exercise extreme caution as the lack of transparency prevents verification of ownership, tax mechanisms, or supply controls.

Technical6/10Medium risk

7.1 Architecture: Unknown. 7.2 Code Security: Cannot be verified due to lack of source code. 7.3 Access Control: Cannot be verified. 7.6 External: Interactions with external protocols cannot be audited.

Governance2/10High risk

7.4 Economic: Tokenomics and tax logic are opaque. 7.5 Governance: Administrative privileges cannot be identified. The risk of rug-pulls or hidden minting functions remains high.

Upgrades6/10Medium risk

7.7 Upgrades: Proxy status cannot be confirmed. 7.8 Operations: Operational security is entirely dependent on the deployer's intent, which is unverifiable.

Final RecommendationWhat to do about this score

Do not interact with this contract. Without verified source code, it is impossible to determine if the contract contains malicious functions such as honeypot mechanisms, unauthorized minting, or restricted selling.

Prioritize assets with verified, audited, and transparent codebases.
