How SOLVET decides

Every verdict comes from data on the Solana chain and fixed rules. This page lists the rules, and, just as important, what SOLVET cannot see.

Principles

What SOLVET does

  • Reads facts straight from the blockchain
  • Applies the same fixed rules to every coin
  • Shows each deduction next to the result
  • Publishes misses as well as hits

What SOLVET does not do

  • Call a person a scammer. Checks describe wallets and facts
  • Predict price
  • Count an unfinished check as passed
  • Let a partner or sponsor change a result

The 8 checks

The verdict on every coin page is built from these. Simulated data never appears in it.

Can you sell?Looks for token extensions that can block or tax selling: permanent delegate, transfer hook, non-transferable, pausable, frozen by default, transfer fee above 5%. An extension SOLVET does not recognise is reported, never ignored.
LiquidityIs the pool being drained right now?
SupplyCan the creator still mint more tokens?
Your walletCan the creator freeze your tokens?
Liquidity lockCan one wallet pull the pool's liquidity?
Top-10 holdersDo a few wallets control most of the supply?
Creator historyHas this creator launched other coins SOLVET has seen, and how did they end?
Creator fundingWhere did the creator wallet get its first SOL?

How the verdict is decided: Red flags found if at least one check failed (one is enough). Things to watch if nothing failed but a result is borderline. Checking while results are still coming in. No red flags only when every check finished and passed. That is not a guarantee, only what the chain can prove today.

SOLVET Score (0 to 100)

It starts at 100 and loses fixed points for each risk. Every deduction is listed next to the number.

−30Copies a bigger coin's ticker
−25 eachCreator can still mint more, or freeze wallets
−20 eachSelling may be restricted; liquidity under $5k; dev holds 25% or more
−15 eachTop-10 hold most of the supply; the dev rugged before
−10 eachLiquidity under $20k; dev holds 10% or more; launch bundle of 20% or more; snipers still holding 20% or more; linked wallets
Token tax4 points per 1%, up to 20
CapsSelling blocked: at most 10. Dev dump or liquidity pull seen by Guard: at most 5
80+LOW RISK
50-79CAUTION
20-49HIGH RISK
<20DANGER

A high score means no red flags were found, not that the price will go up.

Bundle detection

A bundle is when a dev or a crew buys a large part of the supply at launch through several prepared wallets. The coin looks spread out, but one group controls it. Wallets are linked only by observable facts:

Same funderSeveral wallets got their first SOL from the same wallet, also through one middle wallet (2 hops).
Same fee payerOne wallet paid the fees for several buys.
Tied to the devFunded by the dev, same funder as the dev, or fee paid by the dev.
Launch's own Jito bundleBuys sent in one package with the coin's creation, read in real block order.
Created together3 or more wallets made within the same 10 minutes before the launch.
Same trading toolIdentical fee settings and transaction layout, fired within one block.
Same buy size3 or more wallets buying the exact same SOL amount (round bot presets like 0.5 or 1 SOL do not count).
Aged wallets waking upWallets asleep for 30+ days that all woke within the same hour before the launch.

The result is HIGH, MEDIUM, LOW or NO BUNDLE, plus how much of the supply the bundle still holds and a dump radar: how far the price would fall if the bundle sold into the pool now. The curve or pool that receives the initial supply is excluded. A first-block buyer group is a fact about the block, not proof that one person owns those wallets.

Exit check

Selling into a small pool pushes the price down. The Exit check estimates what you would get back before you buy, using the constant-product model (x·y=k) with a 0.25% fee and half the pool's live liquidity as the other side.

back = Q · s · (1 − 0.25%) / (Q + s · (1 − 0.25%))

It is an estimate. Routers that split a sale across pools may do better, concentrated-liquidity pools behave differently, and network fees are not included.

Proof and track record

Proof seals

  • Each finished bundle scan becomes a record: coin, verdict, numbers, time
  • Every hour, new records are hashed into one fingerprint (a Merkle root)
  • The root is posted in the public Telegram channel, which timestamps it
  • Each seal points to the one before it, forming a chain
  • Anyone can recompute it from /api/proof/<number>

Track record rules

  • Only the first sealed verdict per coin counts
  • Judged after 24 hours, and only if Guard watched the coin the whole time
  • Dumped = liquidity drained or pulled, or dev or linked launch wallets sold
  • Coins Guard did not follow are left out, never counted as hits
  • Coins rated LOW that dumped anyway are listed publicly

See the results on Track record and check a seal on Seal verifier.

What SOLVET cannot see

Know the limits

  • SOLVET reads the chain. It cannot see who is behind a wallet, and it does not verify teams, promises or off-chain claims.
  • Wallets that were never linked on-chain by the signals above can hide a bundle. A clean result does not rule one out.
  • A check reflects the moment it ran. Liquidity, holders and authorities can change right after.
  • The Exit check and Dump radar are model estimates, not quotes.
  • Track-record numbers cover only coins Guard followed for the full 24 hours, so they describe those coins, not every coin on Solana.
  • No result is a recommendation or a guarantee. Memecoins are high risk and you can lose everything you put in.
Not financial advice. SOLVET shows what the blockchain can prove today. Rules may be refined; the Changelog lists every change to how SOLVET checks a coin. Questions or corrections: @SolvetScan.
