Is SQD a scam?
LOW RISK · 24/100SQD (SQD) has an automated risk score of 24/100 — low risk. SQD is down 93% from its all-time high and is trading with very little liquidity relative to its size. 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.

Here is what the public data shows about SQD, ordered by how strongly each factor contributes to the score:
- Drawdown From All-Time High: Down 93% from its all-time high — anyone who bought at the peak is far underwater.
- Market Cap Risk: Market cap under $100M — mid-sized; large trades can still move the price.
- Volume Anomaly: Volume at 3.4% of market cap — within normal range.

Why this asset is flagged as high-risk
The patterns below are automated, opinion-based observations from public market data. They describe statistical risk indicators — not proof of wrongdoing by any project or person.
Price is far below its all-time high while trading with very little liquidity — a pattern common to collapsed and dormant tokens, and also to assets in a long bear market
Risk Factor Breakdown
Each factor is scored independently and weighted to calculate the total risk score.
Drawdown From All-Time High
Price Action
20/25
80%
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
1/20
5%
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
3/15
20%
Market capitalisation. The smaller the asset, the less capital it takes to move its price.
Not contributing (3): Supply Structure, Price Volatility, Transparency Gaps — 0 points.

What the contract allows
BNB Chain · measured 2026-10-16
SQD’s deployed contract grants its owner 1 privilege that can affect your position. These are properties of the code itself, not allegations about anyone’s conduct — many legitimate projects retain them deliberately.
Owner can mint new tokens
Supply is not fixed; new tokens can be created, diluting existing holders.
Checked and not present: change any wallet balance, pause all transfers, blacklist wallets, ownership can be reclaimed after renouncing, contract has a hidden owner, contract can self-destruct.
Source code: published and verified, so the deployed bytecode can be independently reviewed.
