This is the same honeypot checker the platform runs everywhere, scoped to Ethereum. A honeypot is a contract that lets you buy but engineers your failure to sell: hidden fees that approach or exceed 100%, blacklists that trap a buyer's address after the purchase, a trading toggle the owner flips after liquidity arrives, or a mint function that can dilute the holder into oblivion. On Ethereum the checker walks the token's own bytecode and its live trading state — owner privileges, fee mechanics, liquidity lock, transfer gates — and prints what it measured, with the evidence for every flag.
Ethereum deserves its own page rather than a paragraph on a generic one because its risks are its own. The chain's execution model, its router landscape and its launch culture shape which rug mechanics are common here — and the scan aggregates below are this chain's own record, not an inheritance from some global average.
The check is free and needs no account: paste a contract address, get the verdict and the reasoning behind it. What the verdict is not, on any chain, is a guarantee — it is an automated heuristic over public data, printed with its evidence so a reader can disagree with it on the merits.
Start at the verdict, then read the flags beneath it — a 'safe' verdict with an unverified liquidity lock is a different claim than one with everything verified.
Treat buy-only mechanics as fatal: anything that restricts selling (blacklists, trading toggles, max-wallet traps that only bind sellers) is the honeypot's signature.
Size the liquidity beside the verdict: a clean token with $4,000 of liquidity can still eat your position on exit.
Counts come from the platform's own scan table — every check run on this chain through the honeypot scanner, aggregated by verdict class. Aggregates are anonymized: a symbol and a count, never an address. A scan verdict is an automated heuristic over public chain data and can be wrong in both directions; the disclaimer travels with every result.
Yes — the scan is free and needs no account. The free plan carries a daily scan allowance; paid plans raise the limit and add batch and API access.
Yes, in both directions — it is an automated heuristic over public chain data. Every flag prints its evidence so you can verify the reasoning instead of trusting a score.
The token's bytecode and live trading state on Ethereum: owner privileges, fee mechanics, transfer gates, mint authority and liquidity — the mechanics a honeypot is built from.
Because bitcoin has no contract-level honeypot to check — no approvals, no transfer hooks, no mint functions. Publishing a BTC variant would imply a check that cannot exist.
