Risk Factor Breakdown
Each factor is scored independently and weighted to calculate the total risk score.
Drawdown From All-Time High
Price Action
25/25
100%
How far the price sits below its peak. Deep drawdowns are common to abandoned and post-collapse tokens, but also to assets in a prolonged bear market — on its own this measures price history, not conduct.
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
3/20
15%
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).

What the contract allows
Ethereum · measured 2026-09-15
Bio Protocol’s deployed contract grants its owner 1 privilege that can affect your position. These are properties of the code itself, not allegations about anyone’s conduct — many legitimate projects retain them deliberately.
Owner can mint new tokens
Supply is not fixed; new tokens can be created, diluting existing holders.
Checked and not present: change any wallet balance, pause all transfers, blacklist wallets, ownership can be reclaimed after renouncing, contract has a hidden owner, contract can self-destruct.
Source code: published and verified, so the deployed bytecode can be independently reviewed.

How we counted holders here
Ten largest wallets
59.3%
including custodial
Largest private wallets
49.6%
after excluding 3
3 of Bio Protocol’s ten largest holders are labelled exchange, market-maker, treasury or vesting, liquidity-pool, staking, bridge, multisig or burn addresses — supply that is custodied, pooled or destroyed rather than sitting in one person’s wallet. Separating them out moves the top-10 figure by 9.7 points. We report the private-wallet figure because that is the supply someone can actually choose to sell today.
Wallets excluded from the top 10
| Address | Classified as | Label | Share |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0x5a52…efcb | Exchange wallet | Binance · Binance 28 | 8.13% |
| 0xf977…acec | Exchange wallet | Binance 8 | 3.38% |
| 0x28c6…1d60 | Exchange wallet | Binance · Binance: Hot Wallet | 2.11% |
Classification applied to the 100 holder records returned for this contract; 91 remained after exclusions · measured 2026-08-31. Custodial wallets are identified by public address labels, so an unlabelled one may still be counted as private — this correction is a floor, not a guarantee.
