Is this coin an obvious trap?

trapcheck is a free, read-only screen for trending Solana tokens. It does not trade, does not touch a wallet, and will not tell you what to buy.

Get trapcheck
bun trapcheck.ts --top 10            # screen the current trending list
bun trapcheck.ts --mints <mint,mint> # screen specific tokens

Three verdicts

TRAP

At least one hard check failed, such as a live mint authority or almost no liquidity.

CAUTION

Softer warnings, such as a pair under 30 minutes old or a concentrated top 10.

NEUTRAL

No traps found by these checks. That is all it means.

NEUTRAL does not mean buy. In testing, coins that passed every check still often lost money. Failing the screen marks a trap. Passing only means the obvious traps are absent.
