Read a Robinhood Chain token on Blockscout.

Four things to look at on a token’s page, and what each one tells you. The example is $COVENANT.

Open the token.

Blockscout for Robinhood Chain is at robinhoodchain.blockscout.com. Paste the token’s contract address into its search. $COVENANT’s is:

0xcd2c8ca6789ccec87b7358e916878e2a2a57de79

What to look at.

  1. 1

    The address, not the ticker

    Anyone can launch a coin with any name and ticker, and several coins on the chain share the same ticker. Only the address is unique: match it to the one on the coin’s Uprally page.

  2. 2

    Its holders

    The list of wallets that hold it. A pool or a launchpad’s curve contract near the top is normal: that is where the coins people trade sit. One plain wallet holding a large share is not.

  3. 3

    Its contract

    Whether its source code is published and verified, so anyone can read what it does, and whether it is a proxy, which means its code can be swapped after launch.

  4. 4

    How it launched

    The transaction that created it: which wallet deployed it, and who else got coins in that same transaction or the blocks right after it. That is what a bundled launch looks like.

Or skip the reading.The token checker reads the contract, the holders and the launch block for you, and says plainly what it hasn’t checked.

Common questions.

Is Blockscout the only explorer?
No. Robinhood Chain also has an Etherscan explorer, robin.etherscan.io, which Uprally’s own links open. Both read the same chain.
The contract isn’t verified. Is that bad?
It means nobody can read its code there. Not proof of anything, but you are trusting what you can’t see.
Why does a pool hold so much?
Coins for sale sit in the pool or on the curve. That share is the market, not a person.

Next: bundled launches.
