The automated market maker attached to a memecoin launch platform, holding $251m and hosting the highest-risk asset mix in this comparison.

Our assessment

PumpSwap is the AMM attached to a memecoin launch platform: tokens that reach a threshold on the launchpad graduate into pools here. It holds $251m at this check, and the nature of what trades on it defines the entire assessment.

The venue is not the risk — the assets are

An AMM cannot distinguish a serious project from a token created twenty seconds ago. On a venue built specifically around launches, the base rate of tokens going to zero is extremely high, and rug pulls, sniper bots and coordinated exits are ordinary events rather than exceptions. Nothing about the contract protects against any of that.

Vertical integration concentrates the exposure

Launchpad and exchange operated together means one party controls issuance, graduation criteria and the trading venue. That is efficient and it removes the separation that would otherwise let one check the other. Users depend on a single operator's decisions across the whole lifecycle of an asset.

What the evidence shows

No audit report was retrievable at a public address, and the transparency and documentation indicators are thin. The 5.0 reflects that combination — real liquidity and volume against very little published evidence — rather than a judgement about any individual token.

Who it suits

PumpSwap fits speculators who understand they are trading assets with a high probability of going to zero and are sizing accordingly. It is not an investment venue, and treating it as one is the mistake it is built to profit from.

Frequently asked

Does this score mean PumpSwap is safe to use?

No. It measures what an outsider can verify: linked audits, published documentation and independently recorded market data. Contract behaviour is not tested by us.

Where does the TVL figure come from?

An independent public analytics platform, queried at the verification date. Anyone can re-run the same query.

Why do some protocols score zero on audits?

Because no audit report is linked in the public dataset. It records what a user can reach, not a claim that no audit was ever performed.
