How this service works
Paste any Base or BNB Chain address before you pay or hire it. ChainWard tells you Pay or Hold, and why, from the wallet’s on-chain history. Free.
Output
Returns a JSON object with a verdict label (e.g. 'pay', 'hold', 'review') and a human-readable reason, plus structured flags (e.g. 'creator_sent_launch_tokens', 'new_creator'), detailed creator wallet info (age, transaction count, sanctions status, funder address), launch transaction metadata (block, time, launcher platform), and token supply facts (mints after launch, tokens sent to creator). A 'limits' field clarifies what the check does and does not cover.
Example use cases
Vetting a new meme coin before buying
“I just saw this new token on Base at 0x5f13d8f3bd2a9bd439d6ec9734ac1b4fb32b3b07 — can you check ChainWard to see if the creator held or dumped their tokens and whether I should buy or hold off?”
Screening a token before a DeFi payment
“I need to send USDC to a project but they want me to interact with their token contract on Base first — the address is 0xabc123def456abc123def456abc123def456ab12. Can you run a rug check and tell me if the launch wallet looks clean?”
Auditing a token recommended by a community
“Someone in my crypto group is hyping a Base token at 0x1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef12345678 — can you check if the creator has any rug flags, like sending out launch tokens right away or being a brand-new wallet?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.chainward.ai/api/risk/rugcheck?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use ChainWard's rug check when you need a fast, on-chain verdict on a Base token contract before making a payment or investment decision — especially when you want to know whether the creator wallet is new, sanctioned, or immediately dumped launch tokens. Prefer this over generic block explorers when you need an automated Pay/Hold recommendation with structured risk flags rather than raw transaction data.
Side effects
- Invalid or malformed address (not matching ^0x[a-fA-F0-9]{40}$) returns a validation error
- Address not found on Base chain returns no data or an empty result
- Unsupported chain (non-Base) returns an error since only Base is currently supported
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC balance for x402 micropayment) blocks the request
- Rate limiting or network timeout may return a 429 or 503 error
- Token with fewer than 100 on-chain records may have incomplete flag analysis
