How this service works
Honeypot check for a Base token: can you sell it after you buy? Simulates a buy and a sell on its Uniswap v2, v3 or v4 or Aerodrome pool and returns sellable, high_tax, honeypot or unknown, both taxes and the pool, plus the owner powers in its code, proxies included (mint, blacklist, pause, fee changes, upgrade), and whether one key holds them. A simulation at one block, not an audit; unknown, never a guess, and no charge if our node fails. Free: GET /v1/token. Trial: /v1/trial.
Output
Returns a verdict (sellable, high_tax, honeypot, or unknown), buy and sell tax percentages, a sellable boolean, a confidence score (0–1), simulation details (pool, venue, block, round-trip loss), owner powers analysis (mint, blacklist, pause, fee changes, upgrade capabilities and whether one key holds them), proxy detection, and a recommendation (proceed, proceed_with_caution, hold, block, or insufficient_data).
Example use cases
Pre-trade honeypot safety check
“I'm about to buy this Base token at 0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48 — can you simulate a buy and sell on it and tell me if I'd be able to sell it back, what the taxes are, and whether the owner can blacklist me or pause trading?”
DeFi bot token screening before swap
“My trading bot is about to swap into token 0xd9aAEc86B65D86f6A7B5B1b0c42FFA531710b6CA on Base — run a honeypot check on it first and give me the verdict, both tax rates, and any red flags like mint or upgrade powers in the contract.”
Token due diligence for investment group
“Our group is considering investing in a new Base token at 0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913 — can you check if it's sellable, what the buy and sell taxes are, which Uniswap pool it uses, and whether one wallet controls all the dangerous owner functions?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://trust-agent.io/v1/token/honeypot?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a fast, simulation-based honeypot and tax check specifically for Base network ERC-20 tokens before executing a trade or payment. It is the right choice when you need both trade simulation (buy/sell tax detection) and static code analysis (owner powers, proxy patterns) in a single call. Prefer it over generic contract scanners when you need DEX-specific simulation across Uniswap v2/v3/v4 and Aerodrome pools with a clear actionable recommendation.
Side effects
- Node failure: no charge, returns provider_degraded flag in response
- Unknown token or no liquidity pool found: verdict returns unknown
- Token not on Base network: request refused
- Invalid or malformed contract address: error response
- Pool simulation reverts unexpectedly: revert reason included in simulation detail
- Token too new or not yet traded: insufficient data for simulation
