Fetch Fetch a token

How the scam score works. The rules are fixed and read only public data.

How it adds up

Each rule reads one fact from a public source and adds points when the fact crosses a line. Each rule scores once at most, at the highest band its fact reaches. The points add up to a score from 0 to 100, and a sum above 100 shows as 100.

Some rules apply to one kind of chain only. A rule counts as checked when its source answered. When fewer than 60% of the rules that apply could be checked, the tier is Not enough data and the score shows "?". A sheet with no DEX Screener pair is Not enough data too, since its liquidity and first pair age checks cannot run. A sheet that ran most but not all of its checks says how many: based on N of M checks.

LP lock, minting, top holders, insider wallets and socials add points only while the token's first pair is under 180 days old. After that, the sheet still shows those facts but adds no points for them.

Why 180: Chainalysis flagged 74,037 tokens launched in 2024 as suspected pump and dumps. On average the liquidity was pulled within six to seven days, and in 99% of them it was gone within 123 days.

There is no allowlist. Every token is scored by the same rules.

A low score means this fetch found few of these signals. Some problems never show up in public data. A high score means it found several. Every point on a sheet links to the line and the source behind it, so you can read them and decide for yourself.
