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 (8h 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.

Unauthorized Token Withdrawal

The _executeSwapAndLiquify function allows the contract to move tokens from any address that has approved the contract, potentially draining user balances.CD-01

Issue

The _executeSwapAndLiquify function allows the contract to move tokens from any address that has approved the contract, potentially draining user balances.

Fix

Restrict the function to only move tokens owned by the contract itself.

Imitation of Zcash (ZEC)

Presents itself as Zcash (ZEC), but CoinGecko lists no Zcash contract on bsc at all (CoinGecko). Holders who think they own the real asset own this contract instead; it has none of the real asset's backing, liquidity or redemption.QA-IDENTITY

Issue

Presents itself as Zcash (ZEC), but CoinGecko lists no Zcash contract on bsc at all (CoinGecko). Holders who think they own the real asset own this contract instead; it has none of the real asset's backing, liquidity or redemption.

Fix

Do not buy, hold or accept this token as the asset it names. Verify any token address against the issuer's official site.

Unchecked Token Transfer Result

The _executeSwapAndLiquify function ignores the return value of ERC-20 transfers, which may fail silently and lead to inconsistent state.CD-04

Issue

The _executeSwapAndLiquify function ignores the return value of ERC-20 transfers, which may fail silently and lead to inconsistent state.

Fix

Use OpenZeppelin's SafeERC20 library to ensure all transfers are successful.

Stuck ETH in Contract

The contract can receive ETH via the receive function but lacks any mechanism to withdraw or utilize these funds, causing them to be permanently locked.CD-03

Issue

The contract can receive ETH via the receive function but lacks any mechanism to withdraw or utilize these funds, causing them to be permanently locked.

Fix

Implement a withdrawal function restricted to a secure address or remove the receive function.

Rounding Loss via Division Before Multiplication

Calculations in _executeSwapAndLiquify and _transfer perform division before multiplication, leading to precision loss.CD-02

Issue

Calculations in _executeSwapAndLiquify and _transfer perform division before multiplication, leading to precision loss.

Fix

Perform all multiplications before divisions to maintain precision.

Liquidity time-locked

97.4% of the pool's LP is burned or time-locked. 97.4% is locked in PinkLock02 until 11 Nov 2026 (20 days). Until then nobody — the project included — can withdraw it unless the locker contract itself is flawed; after that date the lock's owner can. That date is close: treat it as short-term protection. 2.6% is held, unlocked, by 2 address(es) other than the owner/deployer. No single one holds a majority: their exits thin the market rather than hand anyone the pool.QA-LIQUIDITY

Asset class: Imitation of Zcash (ZEC)

A token presenting itself under the name or ticker of an established asset without being that asset's contract. Its only reason to borrow that identity is to be mistaken for it. Scored as an imitation (see the identity finding). Basis: behaves as: project token. Tokenomics — Supply: mint capability could not be read. Control: nobody (ownership renounced). Code: not upgradeable (no proxy). Fees: 3.9% on buy, 3.9% on sell. Market: $390K of DEX liquidity across 1 pools. Launch: under a day of market history.QA-PROFILE

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 21
Executive SummaryWhat the contract is and what the review found

The contract is a standard ERC-20 token with custom fee exclusion logic. Ownership has been renounced, meaning privileged functions are now permanently disabled. However, the contract contains critical logic flaws in its internal swap and liquidity management functions that pose significant risks to token holders.

Technical3/10High risk

The architecture follows standard ERC-20 patterns with added fee-on-transfer logic. 7.1 Architecture is simple but flawed in its liquidity execution. 7.2 Code Security is compromised by unchecked return values and improper arithmetic ordering. 7.3 Access Control is currently locked due to renounced ownership, preventing further administrative changes.

Governance4/10Medium risk

7.4 Economic and 7.5 Governance are effectively neutralized as the contract owner has renounced control. No further changes to fee exclusions or ownership can be made. The economic model relies on internal swaps which are currently broken due to technical implementation errors.

Upgrades4/10Medium risk

7.7 Upgrades are not supported as this is a standard non-proxy contract. The logic is immutable. 7.8 Operations are limited to standard token transfers and the broken internal swap mechanism.

Final RecommendationWhat to do about this score

The contract is currently unsafe for use due to critical vulnerabilities in the internal swap logic.

Since ownership is renounced, the contract cannot be patched or upgraded to fix these issues. Users should avoid interacting with any functions that trigger the internal swap mechanism. Given the immutability of the contract, the current deployment should be considered deprecated and replaced with a new version that includes proper return value checks and secure arithmetic.
