What it is
Honeypot.is does one thing and does it well: it tells you if you can actually sell a token after buying it.
A honeypot is a trap: the contract lets you buy freely, but when you try to sell, the transaction fails or gets blocked. You're stuck holding a worthless token with no exit. Honeypot.is simulates the sell before you buy, like test-driving a car in reverse before paying for it.
How it works
Go to honeypot.is and paste the token contract address.
Select the chain (ETH, BSC, etc.).
The tool simulates a buy and sell transaction without using real funds.
Results show: is it a honeypot? What are the buy/sell taxes? Is there a max transaction limit?
Takes less than 10 seconds. No wallet connection required. Free forever.
When to use it
Before buying any token you found on DEX or in a Telegram group.
When buy/sell taxes seem unusually high or asymmetric.
When a token is new and has no audit or reputation yet.
Use it alongside Token Sniffer for a double layer of basic security checks.
This is the minimum viable security check before any DEX purchase. No excuses.
