This page documents the advanced security checks the Scanner API performs on EVM and Tron tokens. The analysis highlights key risks such as ownership control, honeypot behavior, trading restrictions, tax mechanisms, liquidity locks, and holder concentration.

Indicators

❗️
If verified is false, we cannot reliably analyze the contract. In that case, all other EVM/Tron indicators will be false (not applicable/uncheckable), and their values should be treated as unknown.
