The 5 checks on every coin

A coin has to pass all five to be called real. Each one catches a different trick.

1. 1Real trading fees

   Every trade pays a small fee. A real coin has paid 3 SOL or more in fees.

   Bots can fake a huge volume number cheaply, but fees are real money. Lots of volume and almost no fees means a few wallets traded with each other.

2. 2Real people buying

   Most of the volume comes from people, not bots.

   Some coins show $1M of volume where real people traded $0. That volume is there to make you think others are buying.

3. 3No one-minute dump

   The price never fell 80% or more inside a single minute.

   A drop that fast means the people who launched it sold everything at once onto the buyers.

4. 4Not from a farm

   The wallet that made it, and the wallet that funded that one, aren't pumping out fakes.

   One farm can make 40 coins a day. If the maker is a farm, this coin is one more crop.

5. 5Not a copy

   It isn't a copy of a ticker that's already running.

   When a coin runs, dozens of copies with the same name appear within minutes. Buyers grab the wrong one.
