Before buying a token, check whether it has safety risks. The Data API returns a detailed risk score on every token object. It covers freeze authority, mint authority, bundler activity, insider concentration, developer holdings, and liquidity depth.

​
Get the Risk Score

The risk score is included in the standard token info response under risk. Higher score means higher risk. The final score uses a 1–10 range, even though individual risk factors use larger internal weights. 
curl "https://data.solanatracker.io/tokens/6p6xgHyF7AeE6TZkSmFsko444wqoP15icUSqi2jfGiPN" \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"
Risk response shape: 
{
  "score": 7.4,
  "rugged": false,
  "risks": [
    {
      "name": "Freeze Authority Enabled",
      "description": "Tokens can be frozen and prevented from trading in the future",
      "level": "danger",
      "score": 7500
    },
    {
      "name": "Top 10 Holders",
      "description": "Top 10 holders own more than 15% of the total supply",
      "level": "danger",
      "score": 5000
    }
  ]
}

Key Risk Factors

​
Freeze Authority

Freeze authority lets the token creator lock wallets out of trading at will. This is one of the most dangerous flags — if enabled, the dev can freeze your wallet after you buy. 
const isFreezeEnabled = data.risk.risks.some(r => r.name === "Freeze Authority Enabled");
if (isFreezeEnabled) {
  console.log("🚨 Freeze authority is ON — dev can freeze your tokens");
}

​
Mint Authority

Mint authority means the token owner can print unlimited new tokens, diluting your position to zero. 
const isMintEnabled = data.risk.risks.some(r => r.name === "Mint Authority Enabled");
if (isMintEnabled) {
  console.log("🚨 Mint authority is ON — supply can be inflated at any time");
}

​
LP Burned vs Removable

If liquidity has not been burned or locked, the developer may be able to remove the pool’s trading funds. That can make selling difficult or impossible. 
const lpNotBurned = data.risk.risks.some(r => r.name === "LP Burned");
if (lpNotBurned) {
  console.log("⚠️ LP not burned — dev can remove liquidity at any time");
}

​
Bundler Activity

Bundlers are wallets that coordinated buys in the same transaction block at launch, often to accumulate a large position before anyone else can react. A totalBundlerPercentage above 20% is a serious red flag. 
const bundlerRisk = data.risk.risks.find(r => r.name.toLowerCase().includes("bundl"));
if (bundlerRisk) {
  console.log(`⚠️ Bundler activity detected — ${bundlerRisk.description}`);
}

​
Insider Concentration

Insiders are wallets connected to the deployer — early coordinated buyers or team wallets. When insiders hold a large percentage of supply, they can dump on you at any moment. 
const insiderRisk = data.risk.risks.find(r => r.name.toLowerCase().includes("insider"));
if (insiderRisk) {
  console.log(`⚠️ Insider wallets detected: ${insiderRisk.description}`);
}

​
Rugged Status

The rugged field is a direct Rugcheck signal. true means no liquidity remains and the token is considered unsafe to buy. 
if (data.risk.rugged) {
  console.log("💀 Token is rugged — no liquidity");
}

​
Build a Risk Screener

Filter tokens before displaying them in your app. Here’s a screener that blocks tokens with any danger-level risk factor: 
async function isSafe(token) {
  const res = await fetch(`https://data.solanatracker.io/tokens/${token}`, {
    headers: { "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY" }
  });
  const data = await res.json();
  const { risk } = data;

  if (risk.rugged) return { safe: false, reason: "Rugcheck: token is rugged" };
  if (risk.score >= 8) return { safe: false, reason: `Risk score too high: ${risk.score}/10` };

  const dangerFlags = risk.risks.filter(r => r.level === "danger");
  if (dangerFlags.length > 0) {
    return { safe: false, reason: dangerFlags.map(r => r.name).join(", ") };
  }

  return { safe: true, score: risk.score };
}

const result = await isSafe("6p6xgHyF7AeE6TZkSmFsko444wqoP15icUSqi2jfGiPN");
console.log(result);
// { safe: false, reason: "Freeze Authority Enabled, Top 10 Holders" }

Real-Time Safety Monitoring

Risk scores reflect a point-in-time snapshot. For live alerts — sniper wallet movements, dev selling, bundler activity as it happens — use the Safety Streams via Datastream WebSocket. See the Safety Streams guide.
