Token Audits
Your token security metric.
Token audits are available in the Tokens Dashboard and Overview sections for every coin on Nexa.
They're your quick, comprehensive security analysis to help you stay safe while trading.
Token audits provide initial security insights but should not be your only criteria for trading decisions. Always conduct thorough research and never invest more than you can afford to lose.
Each audit aggregates key security signals and simplifies them into an easy-to-read format:
Audit Score Explained
Tokens are rated on a 5-point scale (e.g. 4/5) based on a set of core security factors. Here's what each score generally indicates:
| Score | Meaning | Example Issues |
|---|---|---|
| 5/5 | Excellent — all core checks passed | Minting disabled, no honeypot, LP locked, no risky ownership, low centralization |
| 4/5 | Generally safe — minor warning | Slightly high top-holder concentration, or dev wallet still active |
| 3/5 | Caution — notable concerns | Minting still possible, LP partially locked, some obfuscated code |
| 2/5 | High risk — multiple red flags | Honeypot signs, no LP lock, high owner control |
| 1/5 | Dangerous — strong indicators of a scam | Unlimited mint, hidden trap functions, unverified code, fully centralized |
Ideally, you want to check where a coin might be falling short before trading it.
Security Info
| Metric | Meaning | What's Desirable |
|---|---|---|
| Mint Authority | Whether new tokens can still be minted | Disabled — prevents unexpected supply inflation |
| Honeypot Function | Whether users can sell the token freely | No — ensures sellers aren’t blocked or trapped |
| LP Burned/Locked | Whether liquidity is locked or destroyed | Yes — protects against rug pulls |
| Top 10 Holdings | % of supply held by top 10 wallets | Lower is better — reduces risk of price manipulation |
| Amount Burned | % of tokens permanently removed | Some burn — may indicate deflationary design, but not required |
| DEV Status | Whether the developer retains control | Renounced or verifiable transfer — avoids centralized control risks |
