Before you ever buy a token

  1. Never share your seed phrase (12/24 words) with anyone, ever. Real support never asks.
  2. Get the contract address from the project's official site — not from a DM, a reply, or a search result. Scammers copy popular names.
  3. Scan it here first. Paste the address above. It takes seconds and it's free.
  4. Test with a tiny amount — buy a little, then sell a little. If you can't sell, you've found a honeypot cheaply.
  5. Only use money you can afford to lose completely. Most new tokens go to zero.

Scam signs no scanner can catch

  • Someone you don't know DMs you about a "great opportunity" or "support".
  • "Guaranteed" returns, or pressure to act right now.
  • A site asks you to "connect wallet" to claim a free airdrop.
  • You're told to pay a fee to "unlock" or "withdraw" your funds.
  • The token's own site or X account is brand new, or hides who's behind it.

    How Analysis Works

    Transparent methodology

    You enter a token

    Paste a contract address or symbol. No wallet connection, no signup, no signature — WATCHDOG only reads public data.

    We pull live data

    WATCHDOG queries several public providers for market, contract-security, sell-simulation and price-history data on that exact token.

    The engine scores risk

    A rules-based engine applies weighted penalties for known scam patterns: active mint/freeze authority, honeypot results, low liquidity, wallet concentration, unverified contracts, high taxes and token age — the same patterns that show up before a rug pull.

    You get a verdict

    A 0–100 threat score, a SAFE→EXTREME band, and a plain-English list of exactly which flags fired. You decide.

    Scores are automated heuristics, not guarantees. A low score is not a green light. Read the full methodology →

    Rug Pull Detector FAQ

    Common questions

    What is a rug pull detector?

    A rug pull detector checks a token's contract and on-chain data for the patterns that show up before a rug pull — an active mint authority, an unlocked liquidity pool, or a handful of wallets holding most of the supply. WATCHDOG is a free rug pull detector for Solana and EVM chains: paste a contract address above and it runs those checks for you.

    How do I check if a meme coin is a rug pull?

    Paste the token's contract address into WATCHDOG. It pulls public market and security data, then flags the specific red flags it finds — honeypot code, mint or freeze authority still enabled, low or unlocked liquidity, high wallet concentration, and unverified contracts — and rolls them into a 0–100 threat score.

    Is WATCHDOG a free meme coin scanner?

    Yes. Scanning a token costs nothing and never requires a wallet connection, signup, or download. WATCHDOG solves a small proof-of-work challenge instead of charging a fee.

    What is a honeypot token?

    A honeypot is a token contract written so buyers can purchase it but cannot sell — one of the most common setups behind meme coin rug pulls. WATCHDOG checks for honeypot code as part of every scan.

    Does WATCHDOG work on Solana?

    Yes. WATCHDOG scans Solana tokens as well as EVM chains including Ethereum, Base, BSC, Arbitrum and Polygon.
