Risk Factor Breakdown
Each factor is scored independently and weighted to calculate the total risk score.
Drawdown From All-Time High
Price Action
8/25
32%
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
15/20
75%
Abnormal volume-to-market-cap ratio is the primary indicator of wash trading or liquidity traps
Price Volatility
Price Action
2/15
13%
Extreme short-term price swings are a hallmark of coordinated pump-and-dump schemes
Not contributing (4): Market Cap Risk, Supply Structure, On-Chain Holder Concentration, Transparency Gaps — 0 points.

What the contract allows
Ethereum · measured 2026-09-15
Railgun’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
82.9%
including custodial
Largest private wallets
5.6%
after excluding 4
4 of Railgun’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 77.3 points. We report the private-wallet figure because that is the supply someone can actually choose to sell today.
Most of Railgun’s supply therefore sits in the excluded addresses. Burned supply is permanently gone, but treasury, vesting and foundation holdings are excluded too, and those can still reach the market when they unlock — a low private-wallet figure is not the same as a low future sell-side risk.
Wallets excluded from the top 10
| Address | Classified as | Label | Share |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0xee6a…ee20 | Staking contract | Railgun · Railgun: Staking | 71.72% |
| 0xe8a8…ff40 | Treasury, vesting or foundation | Railgun · Railgun: Treasury | 4.18% |
| 0x2837…b2cb | Liquidity pool | Uniswap · Uniswap: RAIL | 2.43% |

Classification applied to the 100 holder records returned for this contract; 93 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.
