Is it a honeypot? Paste any BNB Smart Chain token address and this rug checker simulates a real buy and sell against its own PancakeSwap pools, measures the liquidity and reads the contract, then tells you avoid, caution, or ok — in about two seconds, free, no wallet.
Paste a BSC token address. Real on-chain verdict in ~2s — free, no wallet, no signup.
Free trial — a few checks a day, keyed on your IP; the CLI draws on that same quota. Past
that, pay per call: PAYER_PRIVATE_KEY=0x… npx @true402.dev/rugcheck 0x… --chain bsc at $0.01 a report, or wire the API
into an agent.
The most common BNB Chain trap is not a contract that blocks every sale — it is one that whitelists its own operator. The scammer buys and sells on a loop, so aggregators report healthy two-way volume while every real buyer is stuck. We have confirmed this live: a BSC token showing "15 buys / 2 sells" where all seventeen trades came from a single wallet, the sell reverted for three independent addresses, and succeeded only for that one operator. Its liquidity was drained to zero within hours.
That is why the check uses a freshly generated, unpredictable address every time. A token cannot whitelist an address it cannot predict, so it cannot fake sellability for us the way it fakes a chart.
A gas-free buy/sell simulation proves the token can actually be sold (catching traps a static scan misses), plus WBNB/USDC liquidity depth across PancakeSwap V3 and V2, plus contract structure — mint functions, active ownership, blacklist and trading kill switches, upgradeable proxies. One avoid/caution/ok verdict with the reasons behind it. Nothing is written on-chain and no gas is spent.
From a terminal: npx @true402.dev/rugcheck 0x… --chain bsc (free daily checks, exits non-zero on AVOID so it drops straight into a script). From a bot or AI agent it is one call: POST /api/v1/bsc/token-report over x402 — no account, no API key, no signup. Base and Ethereum use the same shape at /api/v1/base/… and /api/v1/ethereum/…. See rug-check from your agent or the full stall catalog.
Checking a Base token instead? Use the Base token scanner, or send it to @True402bot on Telegram.
Yes — this page is one. Paste a BNB Smart Chain (chain 56) token address and it runs a real buy/sell simulation against the token's own PancakeSwap V2 and V3 pools, then returns an avoid/caution/ok verdict. It is free to try with no wallet and no signup, and the same check is available as an HTTP API and as an MCP tool for agents.
Paste the contract address above. The check wraps BNB, buys the token and sells it straight back inside a single simulated transaction — so it measures whether the token can actually be sold, rather than guessing from the source code. It also reads WBNB/USDC liquidity depth across PancakeSwap V3 and V2 and inspects the contract for mint functions, active ownership and blacklist or trading kill switches.
Because the sells can be the scammer's own wallet. A common BNB Chain pattern is a token that whitelists the deployer: the operator buys and sells on a loop to manufacture volume and a chart, so aggregators show healthy "buys and sells" while every real buyer is trapped. We check with a freshly generated, unpredictable address every time, so a token cannot recognise the simulator and cannot fake sellability for it. We have confirmed live BSC tokens where the sell reverts for three independent addresses and succeeds only for the one wallet that ever traded it.
A few checks per day are free with no wallet and no signup. Beyond that the same check is pay-per-call over x402 (about $0.005–0.01 in USDC, no account and no API key): POST the token to /api/v1/bsc/token-report.
BNB Smart Chain (PancakeSwap V3 + V2), Base (Uniswap V3 + Aerodrome) and Ethereum (Uniswap V3 + V2). Pick the chain in the selector above. Every verdict is computed against that chain's own pools — the endpoints are separate per chain and an unsupported chain is rejected rather than silently answered with another chain's data.
Yes. A pass means the sell simulation succeeded and none of the structural checks we run found a flag, at that block — it is not investment advice and it cannot predict a future rug. Liquidity can be pulled minutes later; we have flagged BSC tokens whose pools were drained to zero within hours. Re-check before you trade and treat the verdict as one input.
