Solana honeypot checker

A honeypot is a token you can buy but cannot sell. On Solana the usual cause is an active freeze authority: the creator can freeze any wallet's tokens, so buyers are stuck while the creator sells. Close cousins are an active mint authority (the creator can print more tokens) and pulled liquidity (nothing left to sell into). Each check takes seconds: paste the contract address.

How to check a Solana token

  1. Paste the contract address into the token checker or BLIX's search.
  2. Read the authorities: freeze and mint should both say revoked.
  3. Read the liquidity: a pool with real SOL in it, not a few dollars.
  4. Read the holders: the dev, bundles and the top 10. A coin you can sell can still be sold into.

Are pump.fun coins honeypots?

Not by design: pump.fun creates every coin with mint and freeze authority revoked and its own curve as the market, so a pump.fun coin can be sold while the curve or its pool has liquidity. Rugs there happen by selling, not freezing. Freeze-authority honeypots are tokens created outside launchpads; check those twice.

The rug check

Every coin carries a safety read that answers "is this a rug?" in one number, with the reasons under it: mint and freeze authority, whether liquidity is locked or pulled, the dev's past launches (serial launchers are flagged), bundle and sniper share, top-holder concentration and whether the dev sold. A bubble map draws the wallets that are linked by funding so a coin held by one person through twenty wallets looks like it. A coin can pass the rug check and still go to zero: the check is about the setup, not the chart.

Frequently asked questions

How do I know if a Solana token is a honeypot?

Check its freeze authority. If it is active, the creator can freeze your tokens. Also check mint authority and liquidity. BLIX shows all three for any contract address.

Can pump.fun coins be honeypots?

pump.fun creates coins with mint and freeze authority revoked, so they can be sold while there is liquidity. Rugs there happen through selling, not freezing.

What is freeze authority on Solana?

A right on a token that lets its holder freeze any account holding the token, so it cannot be moved or sold.
