How the AAVE safety score is calculated
The score is a weighted composite. Missing data lowers confidence rather than being silently skipped, and hard caps apply — a token with almost no liquidity or a failed sell simulation cannot score well no matter how clean its source code looks.
| Signal | Score | Weight |
|---|---|---|
| Honeypot risk | 100/100 | 29% |
| Contract security | 100/100 | 17% |
| Owner risk | no data | 0% |
| Owner permissions | no data | 0% |
| Holder distribution | 100/100 | 11% |
| Liquidity | 85/100 | 17% |
| Market activity | 60/100 | 11% |
| ERC-20 compliance | no data | 0% |
| Clone / fake token | 100/100 | 7% |
| LP safety | 15/100 | 7% |

Is AAVE a honeypot?
Honeypot status could not be confirmed — security data for this contract is incomplete, which is itself a reason for caution.

Can I trust this score?
It aggregates GoPlus contract security, honeypot.is real-holder sell simulation and DexScreener market data into one number. It measures contract and liquidity risk — not whether a price will go up. Nothing here is investment advice.
