Solana meme-coin risk scanner

Know it's a rug
before you ape.

Copy any token address. In seconds Rugsnitch checks the contract, the launch, the dev, the holders and the volume — and tells you exactly why a coin is dangerous. Then it watches your bags for dev dumps and liquidity pulls.

Features

What makes Rugsnitch different.

Most scanners stop at a score. Rugsnitch learns from real outcomes, watches your coins after you buy, and shows you exactly who is about to dump.

01

Rug DNA

It learns from every launch it watches.

Each coin Rugsnitch deep-scans is checked again after 2 and 24 hours and labeled rugged, died, survived or ran. New coins are compared with their closest matches: "25 similar launches — 100% rugged or died." It gets sharper the more you use it.

Learns from real outcomesNearest-match comparison
02

Copy → verdict in seconds

Works in every app — no tab switching.

Copy a contract from X, Telegram, pump.fun or anywhere and a popup shows the verdict instantly. Seconds later the deep checks land — launch bundles, insiders, dev history, fake volume and a real sell test.

Clipboard auto-scanDeep checks in seconds
03

Instant LP-pull alarm & exit radar

Know when to get out — not after.

A live connection to the pool of every graduated coin on your watchlist fires an alert the moment its SOL collapses. The exit radar combines every sell signal — dev dumps, LP unlocks, insiders in profit, sellers taking over — into HOLD, TIGHTEN or EXIT.

04

Insider profit map & rugger network

See who got in before you.

Dev, snipers, bundled and dev-funded wallets — what they paid versus now, and how much they're up. Then it traces the wallet that funded the dev to every other coin it launched, and how those ended.

05

Possible Runners

Rug DNA in reverse — finds the next winner.

Every new launch is also pattern-matched against the coins in your Rug DNA library that actually ran — 10x or more. A close match surfaces as a Possible Runner with a similarity score and its closest past match. It's a pattern, not a safety signal — always check the risk score too.

06

Auto take-profit & stop-loss

Set your exit before you even buy.

Add a TP/SL right on the buy row and Rugsnitch watches the position for you — hit either level and it sells automatically, live or paper, and tells you when it fires. No more staring at a chart waiting to sell.

Launch radar + backtest

Every new pump.fun launch filtered live; the Lab backtests your filters on real outcomes and suggests better ones.

Safe position size

The most you can buy and still sell with 5% impact or less — before you buy.

Honeypot sell test

A real Jupiter round-trip quote catches coins you can't sell and hidden taxes.

Holder clusters

Top holders funded from the same wallet are grouped — one person behind many "different" holders.

Dev history

Every coin this dev launched before, how many graduated and how many died.

Smart-money win rates

Track wallets, score their real win rate and PnL, get alerted when several buy the same coin.

Phone alerts & scans

Your own Telegram bot or a Discord webhook — send it a contract and it replies with the report.

AI copilot

Optional plain-English explanation of the risk, and answers to your questions about the coin.

Global hotkeys

Scan highlighted text without copying, open screen scan, toggle the ticker — from any app.

Mini ticker & voice alerts

An always-on-top strip of your watched coins — move it, resize it, mute it — and critical alerts read out loud.

Trade, paper-trade & journal

Buy and sell from any report with a built-in wallet or practice with paper SOL, see a live chart beside the trade panel, and review every trade in the journal. Clear honeypots are blocked from buying.

How it works

Three seconds between you and a rug.

1

Copy the contract

Anywhere — a tweet, a Telegram call, pump.fun, DexScreener. Or highlight it and press Ctrl+Shift+S, or drag a box around it on a stream with Ctrl+Shift+X.

2

Get the verdict

A popup shows the score, the verdict and every red flag. Deep checks land a few seconds later — launch forensics, dev history, holder clusters and a real sell test.

3

Watch what you hold

Press Watch. Rugsnitch re-scans the coin, follows the dev and top holders, arms an LP-pull alarm and alerts you — on your desktop and on your phone.

What it checks

It sees what the chart hides.

Every scan pulls live data from Solana, pump.fun, DexScreener, RugCheck and Jupiter — and explains it in plain English.

A full rug-risk report

One score, one verdict, and six graded categories — contract, liquidity & exit, supply control, dev, trading and identity — so you see where the risk is at a glance.

  • Contract mint & freeze authority, Token-2022 traps
  • Launch forensics bundled launch-block wallets, snipers, what they still hold
  • Dev history every coin this dev launched and how many died
  • Sell test a real Jupiter round trip catches honeypots and hidden taxes
  • Safe position size the most you can buy and still exit under 5% impact

Insiders, rugger networks & Rug DNA

See who got in before you and how much they're up. Trace the wallet that funded the dev to every other coin it launched. Then compare this launch with the most similar ones Rugsnitch has already watched live or die.

  • LP-pull alarm a live connection to the pool, alerts within seconds
  • Position tracking entry, size, live PnL and exposure

Launch radar — new, hot and trending

Not just brand-new pump.fun launches anymore — the radar also pulls in hot and boosted tokens, tagged so you can filter by New or Hot. Only coins that hit your filters get a full deep scan, and the ones that pattern-match a past 10x+ launch surface separately as Possible Runners.

  • All · New · Hot filter the live feed by where a coin came from
  • Possible Runners matched against your library of real past winners
  • Filter tuner the Lab backtests your filters on real outcomes

Trade with an automatic safety net

Buy and sell right from the report, live or with paper SOL, with the chart and the panel side by side. Set a take-profit and stop-loss the moment you buy — or add one to a position you already hold — and Rugsnitch executes it for you the instant either level hits.

  • Set on buy one click buys and arms the exit together
  • Fires on its own no need to watch the chart
  • Live or paper the same auto-exit either way

A community watching your back

Every Rugsnitch install can report a rug — but only on a token the scanner already flagged, and only with a real explanation, so the shared list can't be used to dump FUD on a coin the scanner has no problem with. Two or more reports and it shows up as a warning on every future scan of that dev.

  • Anti-FUD gate reporting needs a scan verdict and 10+ characters explaining why
  • See the actual reason not just a count — the reporter's own words
  • Dev history a rugger is flagged on every coin that wallet touches next

FAQ

Questions

Is Rugsnitch free?

Yes — scanning, watchlists, alerts, radar, the Lab and paper trading are free with no account needed. Live trading carries a 1% commission on sells only (see the next question); everything else stays free either way.

Does Rugsnitch charge any fees?

A 1% commission on live sells — never on paper trades, and never on buys. It's taken automatically as part of the sell through Jupiter, the same aggregator Rugsnitch already routes swaps through, so there's no extra step. Scanning, watchlists, radar and everything else has no fee at all.

How does the referral program work?

Create a free account from the Account page (this is separate from the trading wallet, and only needed if you want a referral link). Share your link — anyone who signs up through it is linked to you permanently, and you earn 10% of the commission Rugsnitch collects from their live trades. Request a payout to any Solana address anytime; payouts are reviewed manually.

Can it guarantee a coin won't rug?

No tool can. Rugsnitch finds the warning signs — bundled launches, insider supply, a dev with a history of dead coins, fake volume, honeypot behaviour — and keeps watching after you buy so you can react fast. Meme coins stay high risk; size your positions accordingly. Nothing here is financial advice.

Does it need my wallet or private key?

Not to scan — scanning only reads public blockchain and market data, and the buy links open your usual trading terminal. In-app trading is optional and off by default: it uses a separate trading wallet created on your PC (key encrypted by your system keychain or a password). Keep only what you trade with in it, never your main savings.

Which coins does it work with?

Any Solana SPL or Token-2022 token — pump.fun coins on the bonding curve and graduated coins trading on PumpSwap, Raydium, Meteora and other DEXs.

Why is it slow sometimes?

The free public Solana RPC is rate-limited. Paste a free Helius or QuickNode RPC URL in Settings → Data and holder checks, launch analysis and wallet tracking get much faster.

How do I get alerts on my phone?

Create a Telegram bot with @BotFather (takes a minute), paste its token in Settings, then send your bot any message. You can also use a Discord webhook.

Windows says "unknown publisher" — is that normal?

Yes, for new apps without a paid code-signing certificate. Click More info → Run anyway. You can verify your download against the SHA-256 checksums above.

Is there a Mac version?

Not yet — Windows and Linux for now.

Scan before you ape.
