Suspicious Tokens

The DeFi space is dynamic, but it’s crucial to remain cautious. Here are some red flags to watch out for:

  • No or limited information: Be wary of tokens with scant details about the project, team, or tokenomics.

  • Unknown or inexperienced team: Research the project's team. Lack of transparency or a history of scams is a red flag.

  • Hidden Fees: Watch for unexpectedly high transaction fees that could erode your profits.

  • Unequal Token Distribution: Disproportionate allocation to creators could lead to unfair control.

  • Rug Pull: If creators suddenly withdraw all liquidity, it prevents investors from selling their tokens.

  • Honey Pot: Contracts designed to trap investors by preventing token sales.

  • Opaque Token Economics: Projects with unclear or misleading financial models.

  • Unrelinquished Ownership: If creators retain control over the contract, it poses risks.

  • Inflatable Supply: Tokens whose supply can be increased without notice, diluting value.

✅ Always conduct thorough research (DYOR) before investing in any token. Verify the token's contract address, examine its code, and investigate the project's team and roadmap.
