Risk Factor Breakdown
Each factor is scored independently and weighted to calculate the total risk score.
Price Collapse
Price Action
25/25
100%
Severe ATH drawdown signals exit scams, abandoned projects, or post-pump dumps
Volume Anomaly
Trading Signals
1/20
5%
Abnormal volume-to-market-cap ratio is the primary indicator of wash trading or liquidity traps
Market Cap Risk
Market Structure
3/15
20%
Small market caps can be trivially manipulated by a single large holder (whale)
Supply Structure
Tokenomics
0/20
0%
Free float (circulating vs total/max supply). A low float means both future dilution from locked reserves and concentration enabling single-hand price control (estimated; verified holder data is scored separately).
Price Volatility
Price Action
0/15
0%
Extreme short-term price swings are a hallmark of coordinated pump-and-dump schemes
On-Chain Holder Concentration
Tokenomics
0/22
0%
Verified holder data. Burn and labelled exchange, staking, bridge and LP wallets are excluded; unlabelled contracts (often team/vesting multisigs) are counted. Over 50% in the top 10 enables single-hand price control.
