Is Pocket Network a scam?

That combination is common to abandoned and post-collapse tokens, but it also describes assets in a prolonged bear market — it is not evidence of any wrongdoing by anyone.

measured 2026-10-22 · 7 factors evaluated
Here is what the public data shows about Pocket Network, ordered by how strongly each factor contributes to the score:
- Drawdown From All-Time High: Down more than 99% from its all-time high — among the deepest drawdowns we measure.
- Volume Anomaly: Very low volume (1.91% of MCap) — thin trading, so larger positions may be hard to sell near the quoted price.
- Market Cap Risk: Market cap under $100M — mid-sized; large trades can still move the price.
These are automated, opinion-based indicators from public data — not financial advice or an allegation of wrongdoing. See our methodology.

Each factor is scored independently and weighted to calculate the total risk score.
Drawdown From All-Time High
Price Action
25/25
100%
How far the price sits below its peak. Deep drawdowns are common to abandoned and post-collapse tokens, but also to assets in a prolonged bear market — on its own this measures price history, not conduct.
Volume Anomaly
Trading Signals
8/20
40%
24-hour volume compared with market cap. Very high turnover can reflect genuine news-driven trading or inflated volume; very low turnover means the price is rarely tested. We measure the ratio and cannot attribute it to any party.
Market Cap Risk
Market Structure

Market capitalisation. The smaller the asset, the less capital it takes to move its price.

What the contract allows
Ethereum · measured 2026-10-21
Our contract source did not report on any of the 7 owner privileges we check for. What it did return for Pocket Network is below — treat the unreported checks as unknown, not as absent.
Contract is upgradeable (proxy)
The logic behind this token can be replaced after deployment. This is a standard pattern used by many established protocols; it means a review of today’s code does not bind tomorrow’s.
Not answered by our source: change any wallet balance, pause all transfers, blacklist wallets, mint new tokens, ownership can be reclaimed after renouncing, contract has a hidden owner, contract can self-destruct. Treat these as unknown, not as absent.
Source code: published and verified, so the deployed bytecode can be independently reviewed.

How we counted holders here
Ten largest wallets
97.3%
including custodial
Largest private wallets
14.0%
after excluding 2
2 of Pocket Network’s ten largest holders are labelled exchange, market-maker, treasury or vesting, liquidity-pool or DeFi-protocol, staking or vault, bridge, multisig or burn addresses — supply that is custodied, pooled or destroyed rather than sitting in one person’s wallet. Separating them out moves the top-10 figure by 83.3 points. We report the private-wallet figure because that is the supply someone can actually choose to sell today.
Most of Pocket Network’s supply therefore sits in the excluded addresses. Burned supply is permanently gone, but treasury, vesting and foundation holdings are excluded too, and those can still reach the market when they unlock — a low private-wallet figure is not the same as a low future sell-side risk.
Wallets excluded from the top 10
| Address | Classified as | Label | Share |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0x3ee1…a585 | Bridge contract | Wormhole · Wormhole: Token Bridge · Bridge · Wormhole · TokenBridge | 80.33% |
| 0x0000…8a90 | Liquidity pool or DeFi protocol contract | Uniswap · Uniswap V4: Pool Manager · Liquidity Pool · DEX · Uniswap V4 | 3.47% |
Classification applied to the 100 holder records returned for this contract; 94 remained after exclusions · measured 2026-10-22. Custodial wallets are identified by public address labels, so an unlabelled one may still be counted as private — this correction is a floor, not a guarantee.
