DeepGyre/Honeypot checker

Honeypot checker

Find out whether a token can be sold before you buy it — simulated on the latest block, with the evidence shown.

How the check works

Paste a token contract and DeepGyre runs two independent engines on it. The first is our own trade simulation: on Ethereum, BNB Chain and Base it buys the token through the chain's main pool on the latest block, waits several blocks, then tries to sell all of it back. Nothing is signed or sent. A token you can buy but cannot sell is a honeypot.

The second engine is a static security check of the contract: owner privileges, mint and blacklist functions, upgradeable proxies and declared taxes. When the two engines disagree you see both answers side by side, never one silently overriding the other.

Taxes are measured as the effective round-trip cost against the pool's own quote, so a token that takes a hidden fee during the sell is caught even when its declared tax looks clean.

Signs of a honeypot

What the check cannot tell you

A clean result means the sell worked on the block that was simulated. An owner who can upgrade the contract can change the rules later, a pool can be drained and taxes can be raised. The result is a measurement at one moment, not a guarantee.

Frequently asked

What is a honeypot token?

A token whose contract lets you buy but blocks or heavily taxes the sell, so the money that goes in cannot come out.

Which chains does the honeypot check cover?

The buy-and-sell simulation runs on Ethereum, BNB Chain and Base. The contract security check covers the 45 chains of the scanner.

Can a token pass the check and still be a scam?

Yes. The check proves the sell worked at that moment. Ownership rights, liquidity and taxes can change afterwards, which is why the report lists what the owner is still able to do.
