1. Verify the token Mints in the pool
Pool interfaces can display names and symbols, but the underlying Mint addresses are the reliable asset identifiers.
Compare the output Mint with the project's canonical Mint before interacting.
- Check both token Mints.
- Use full addresses when possible.
2. Verify the pool or market identity
A token can have more than one Raydium market or liquidity pool. Check the pool or pair address and the quote token instead of assuming every market with the same ticker is official.
Project-published market links can be a useful reference, but should still be cross-checked.
- Pair address.
- Quote token.
- DEX route.
3. Read liquidity and price impact together
Visible liquidity describes pool depth; the swap interface estimates how your order affects execution. A small pool can produce significant slippage even when the chart looks stable.
The actual quote at the time of signing is more important than a stale screenshot.
- Review price impact.
- Review minimum received.
- Avoid assuming chart price equals execution price.
4. Separate LP status from token checks
Liquidity lock or LP ownership is a separate topic from Mint Authority, Freeze Authority and holder concentration. A complete review should not collapse these into one score.
BLINKBUN publishes its own pool and LP references so users can verify those claims separately from the Mint account.
- Token controls and pool controls are different.
- Verify claims through independent links where available.
