MemeScout Indicator Guide
Dive into the details of each MemeScout metric and empower your investment decisions with the strength of real, accurate data.
📈 Part 1: Token Overview
💰 Current Price
What it is: The real-time market price of the token in USD.
Investor's Tip:
Extremely low prices (e.g., <$0.000001) can pose a higher risk of going to zero.
Be cautious with highly volatile tokens.
Price alone is not a strong indicator; always evaluate it alongside market cap.
📈 Market Cap
Formula: Total Supply × Current Price
Investor's Tip:
< $100K：Extremely early stage. High risk, high reward.$100K - $1M：Early stage. Requires in-depth due diligence.$1M - $10M：Growth stage. Focus on fundamentals and community growth.> $10M：More established. Potential for explosive returns may be lower.
💧 Liquidity
Why it matters: It determines how easily you can buy or sell the token without significant price impact (slippage).
Safety Guideline:
While it should be analyzed relative to the token's market cap, a small liquidity pool always carries high risk.
🔒 LP Locked
What it is: The percentage of the liquidity pool that is locked or burned, preventing the developers from removing it.
Investor's Tip:
100%✅ Safest. The team cannot "rug" the liquidity.80-99%✅ Secure. Generally safe, but it's wise to check the lock duration.50-79%⚠️ Medium Risk. Proceed with caution and investigate further.< 50%: ⛔ High Risk. High potential for a rug pull. This is a major red flag, though context in the earliest project stages should be considered.
⚠️ Part 2: Risk Assessment
A Breakdown of Our 5-Tier Risk Rating
Our AI-powered system analyzes multiple dimensions—including creator background, holder distribution, liquidity health, and trading activity—to generate a comprehensive risk score.
The score is categorized into five levels:
Low Risk
Moderate Risk
High Risk
Very High Risk
Extreme Risk
Investor's Tip:
For Beginners: Focus exclusively on projects rated Low Risk or Moderate Risk.
For Experienced Traders: Projects with an High Risk rating or lower can be considered, but meticulous position sizing is crucial.
For Pro Traders / Degens: Opportunities may be found in Very High and Extreme Risk projects, but only with a robust risk management strategy in place.
🐦 Part 3: Social Media Analysis
This section offers a deep dive into the token's social landscape by analyzing its linked social media accounts.
⚠️ A crucial note: Some token creators falsely link their projects to popular, unaffiliated accounts. To verify the connection, always pay close attention to our "Posted CA Content?" indicator.
Linked X Account Type
👤 Personal Profile: The personal account of a founder or core team member.
👥 Community: The project's official community or brand account.
📝 Tweet: The token is linked directly to a specific tweet.
Social Influence Score
Regardless of the linked account type, our system traces back to the primary individual creator's account and assigns it an Influence Score. This score is calculated based on multiple factors, including account creation date, tweet engagement, follower count, and the number of influential followers (KOLs).
As a rule of thumb, tokens launched by creators with a higher influence score tend to have more potential.
📊 Rating System：
⭐：Minimal Influence
⭐⭐：Some Influence
⭐⭐⭐ ：Moderate Influence
⭐⭐⭐⭐：Strong Influence
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐：Top-Tier Influence
🌟 Core Follower Breakdown
Influencer Followers (KOL) : The number of followers who are themselves influential figures in the crypto industry.
Project Followers: The number of followers that are official accounts of other crypto projects.
VC Followers: The number of followers from venture capital firms, investment funds, and other financial entities.
🔗 Posted CA Content?
This is a critical security check!
The market is flooded with scams that fraudulently link their token to a popular account. This indicator helps you avoid them.
It verifies whether the linked X account has actually published a post containing this token's CA.
⚠️ Please be aware: Our system uses various search engines for this verification. If the linked account is shadowbanned or search-restricted by X, our results may be inaccurate. However, an account being restricted is often a significant red flag on its own.
📊 CA-Mention Tweet Performance
Avg. Tweet Views (CA): The average view count for all tweets on X that mention this token's CA. This helps measure the content's reach and virality.
Avg. Tweet Followers (CA): The average follower count of all influencers/users who have posted tweets containing this token's CA. This helps gauge the quality of the promoters (or "shillers").
💎 Part 4: Top 100 Holder Analysis
💰Top 100 Holder: By Share (%)
This section breaks down the percentage of the total supply held by the top holders, segmented into five tiers: Top 1, Top 10, Top 30, Top 50, and Top 100.
To provide a clearer picture of true distribution, we have excluded known Centralized Exchange (CEX) wallets and focus only on individual holder wallets.
These tiers help you assess the health of the token's distribution. A healthy token typically displays a balanced pyramid structure, where the ownership percentage at each stage is neither excessively high nor critically low.
💰 Top 100 Holder: By Value ($)
This metric categorizes the Top 100 holders by the USD value of their holdings, revealing the capital structure of the project's investor base.
🟢 < $100 (Shrimp): Small retail holders
🔵 $100 - $1K (Fish): Average retail holders
🟡 $1K - $10K (Dolphin): Mid-tier investors
🔴 > $10K (Whale): Large-scale investors / Whales
This is another critically important indicator!
An ideal distribution is balanced, without a disproportionate number of holders in any single value bracket.
For example: A token dominated by "Shrimp" may lack the capital to achieve significant price appreciation. Conversely, a token overly controlled by "Whales" poses a high risk of a massive sell-off (a "dump").
By analyzing the distribution by share (%) and by value ($) together, you can build a comprehensive profile of the token's key stakeholders. This allows you to answer crucial questions:
Is the token primarily held by small retail investors?
Is it completely controlled by a few whales, posing a high dump risk?
Or is there a healthy, balanced mix of retail and larger, confident investors?
This combined analysis is invaluable for assessing a token's long-term potential and its overall on-chain health.
🎯 Part 5: KOL Tracking
📊 KOL Activity Overview
Total KOL Buyers: The total number of select, influential KOLs who have ever bought this token.
Current KOL Holders: The number of those KOLs who are still holding the token right now.
Investor's Tip:
A high number of Total Buyers indicates the project has successfully captured significant influencer attention in the past.
A high number of Current Holders suggests that these influencers maintain conviction in the project's future.
A high Retention Rate (Current Holders / Total Buyers) is a strong bullish signal, suggesting that the "smart money" believes there is still significant upside potential.
🔍 Current Holding KOL Performance
Here's a detailed breakdown for each KOL who is currently holding the token:
⏱️ Current Holding Duration
Long Duration: Could signal strong confidence, but could also mean they missed their ideal exit point.
Short Duration: Often indicates a quick flip or short-term trading strategy.
📊 7-Day Median Holding Time
The KOL's typical holding period for Meme tokens over the last week. This reveals their trading style.
Use this to judge if they are a short-term flipper or a long-term investor. A pattern of extremely short holds can be a negative signal, indicating they primarily engage in pump-and-dump tactics.
📈 7-Day Median ROI
The KOL's average Return on Investment on similar trades over the last week.
A higher ROI suggests stronger coin-picking skills and a better track record.
🔄 7-Day Trade Count
The KOL's trading frequency.
An excessively high number may indicate a high-frequency trader or bot, whose actions should be interpreted with caution.
💎 Still Holding (%)
The size of their current holdings compared to their largest (peak) holdings of this token.
A high percentage indicates they have not significantly sold off their position.
✅ Realized PnL
The profit or loss from the portion of tokens they have already sold.
This helps you understand their profit-taking strategy and how successful their exits have been.
💰 Estimated Total PnL
The total estimated performance, combining Realized PnL (from sold tokens) with the Unrealized PnL (from current holdings valued at the current market price).
This metric estimates the KOL's potential profit or loss if they were to liquidate their entire position right now.
📈 KOL's Recent Trading Activity
Monitor the KOL's latest moves for real-time signals:
🟢 Buy: The KOL is increasing their position. This is often a bullish signal for the short term.
🔴 Sell: The KOL is reducing their position, either to take profits or because they are turning bearish on the project.
💎 Part 6: Premium Channel
Premium members gain access to an exclusive Telegram channel.
Whenever a new meme coin launches, a complete report on the token will be posted in the channel.
We currently support pump.fun. Support for additional platforms is coming soon.
📈 Pro Tips & Strategy
A Step-by-Step Workflow for Analysis
Start with the Risk Assessment. Use it as your first filter to screen out high-risk projects that fall outside your personal risk tolerance.
Dive into the Social Media Analysis. Assess the developer's credibility and the overall market sentiment. This is a crucial step to dodge potential scams and rug pulls.
