Token Sniffer
Automatic scanner to detect honeypots and rug pulls
What it is
Token Sniffer is a free tool that scans a token's smart contract and gives you a security score before you invest a single dollar.
Think of it as a metal detector at the airport: it won't catch everything, but it will flag the most obvious threats. If a token fails Token Sniffer's checks, walk away. If it passes, that's a green light to dig deeper, not a guarantee of safety.
How it works
Go to tokensniffer.com and paste the token contract address.
The tool automatically analyzes the contract code for known scam patterns.
You receive a score and a breakdown of checks: honeypot test, ownership renouncement, liquidity lock, similar contracts, and more.
Red flags are highlighted clearly, failed checks mean high risk.
Supports Ethereum, BSC, Base, Avalanche, and more chains. Free to use, no wallet connection required.
When to use it
Every single time you're about to buy a new or unknown token.
When someone sends you a contract address on Telegram or Twitter.
Before aping into a meme coin or presale token.
As a first-pass filter before doing deeper manual research.
Make it a habit: if you don't check Token Sniffer first, you're flying blind.
