I've just read this great content again, and have a few questions. Recently I made some investigation among meme coin contracts. And experienced that the contract is 100/100 on tokensniffer for a while then in becomes unsellable, and its tokensniffer points are decreased to 0/100 accordingly. Do you know how can this malicious code be detected?

I highlighted the best practices I use. Other than that, I think there are other sites that are better about contract security scores.

How can I find contract addresses for protocols? For example Curve, as seen in the first image of this post. The image shows "granted to: 'contract address'" which is supposed to be Curve Finance, but where can I find protcol contract address to double check that it actually is?

You can search Curve in etherscan, dexscreener and coinmarketcap, which will give you contract addresses. Also can find it typically in a whitepaper.

Hi, About you last newsletter. the example of Will Smith Ino is a scam project correct? where do you see the money nflowwing out of the project into the "marketing account" and where do you see that our guy made 678$. Please explain. Thanks.

It was a meme coin, so not an outright scam per se. You can actually see the money flow on the sells of DEX trades. If you follow the marketing wallet that I posted, you can see the money flowing in

Can you you explain in some more details how the set up works. I believe things like this give followers a good insight in how exactly the market works. By the way, I loved your TERRA/LUNA analysis.

Most real tokens don't have these buy/sell taxes so it doesn't have to be focused on (I think even Safemoon, which was successful for some time had these). The summary is: if you see the buy/sell tax on "Read Contract" then if you look at "Dex Trades" on etherscan, you can see in each transaction that there is money being skimmed off each sell to the "marketing" wallet.

Thank you for sharing such insightful article. I tried to do a similar exercise for Ethereum 2.0 deposit contract.

There is no contract security audit and I also could not locate the owner to determine EOA vs. multi sig. Could you please share your thoughts on the same??

I'd assume the ETH 2 deposit contract is probably fine - surprised there is no audit tho

Expand full comment

Also how did you find that wallet is EOA or multi sig? i can't see this on my end tried how you'd mentioned this in article, thanks

It was labelled "Marketing Wallet" and then I saw it receiving the sell "tax" on each dex trade
