METHODOLOGY

No black box. Every caution has a reason.

NOP Proof Score summarizes observable risk from 0 to 100. The investor brief separately reports research posture, critical conditions and evidence coverage—never a buy or sell instruction.

01

Contract & exit controls

32%

EVM/Tron honeypot and privileged controls or Solana mint, freeze, close, metadata, fee and hook authorities.

02

Liquidity & exitability

24%

Aggregated indexed liquidity, top-pool concentration, pool maturity and liquidity relative to FDV.

03

Wallet concentration

18%

Largest holder, top-10 share, owner/creator exposure and holder breadth before manual entity labeling.

04

Market behavior

18%

Turnover, buy/sell flow, 24-hour price behavior and cross-pool price dispersion as clues—not manipulation verdicts.

05

Project evidence

8%

Public website, social and repository claims linked to third-party metadata; claims are not identity verification.

Facts

Values directly returned by a named data source, with a link to inspect that source.

Inferences

Explicit rules applied to facts—for example, shallow liquidity relative to FDV or a young primary pool.

Unknowns

Missing data lowers coverage and can cap the score. It is never silently treated as safe.

Decision rules and limitations

A direct transfer/exit constraint caps the score at 18; other hard-stop conditions cap it at 34. Raw holder concentration can include exchanges, bridges, burn or LP addresses and therefore requires manual labeling. Trade imbalance and turnover are screening clues, not proof of market manipulation. Automated analysis can still miss upgrades, related-wallet clusters, compromised keys, cross-chain exposure and new exploit classes.
