{% hint style="warning" %}
Always interpret scan results in the context of the specific token. Failing a scan doesn’t automatically mean the contract is malicious, and passing a few checks doesn’t guarantee it’s safe. While we strive to provide the best information to help you trade safely, it’s important to do your own research before making any decisions.
