Before you buy

The token checker reads a Robinhood Chain coin’s contract, its holders and its launch, and says what it found. What it hasn’t checked, it says so, and never counts as a pass.

In 30 seconds

- Paste an address or a ticker into the [token checker](https://uprally.co/tools/token-checker). Free, no sign-in.
- Owner powers, the launch block, holders and the creator, read from the chain.
- The sell test and tax don’t run on Robinhood Chain yet: they read “Not checked yet”.

## What each check reads.

## How to read the answers.

Each line says what was found: “No / No / No / No” for owner powers we looked for and didn’t find, a share of the supply for a bundle. The chip at the top counts the things to know (what our rules flag) and the checks not done yet. A flag is never hidden behind “not checked yet”.

**A moment in time, not a promise.**A clean contract stops some tricks; it says nothing about whether the price holds. A check is a reading of the chain at the time shown, not financial advice.

## No sign-in.

No account, no sign-in. What you paste stays out of the page’s address, so a check never becomes a page of its own.

## Common questions.

**Why can’t it test a sale yet?**

Our sell test was built for another chain’s pools. Until it runs on Robinhood Chain, it says “Not checked yet” rather than guess.

**A ticker shows several coins. Which is real?**

Tickers can be copied; addresses can’t. The picker puts the largest market cap first. Match the address to the one the project publishes.

**Where does the data come from?**

The chain: contract reads, plus every transfer since launch for the holders and the launch block, read by our own index. That covers coins launched since 14 Oct; an older coin’s launch figures read “Not checked yet”.
