How to use the PumpPill Scanner
A contract address is a string of letters and numbers. On its own it tells you nothing about who made the coin, who holds it, or whether you can sell it. The Scanner at /scan takes that address and gives you a plain-English read of the token behind it, on Solana and on Robinhood Chain. This lesson covers how to paste one, how to read the result, and the parts of the picture the Scanner cannot fill in.
What it is
The Scanner is one paste box and one read. You paste a contract address, press Get the read, and the stored read opens beside a short list called "What every read answers". The video's narration puts it this way: "PumpPill Scanner reads the coin behind the address, and tells you what it found in plain words."
Two words carry the read. "Am I early?" says how far the token has run from launch, from its peak, and from where PumpPill first logged it. "What's my risk?" says what the contract lets its owner do, how concentrated the holders are, and whether the pool is locked. The reasons sit under those two answers as a list, each line marked pass, fail, or unread.
You do not need an account, and nothing asks you to connect a wallet.
How to use it
- Open /scan. The box at the top accepts a Solana mint or a Robinhood Chain address (the ones that start with 0x). The page tells you if the text is not a contract address at all.
- Paste the address and press Get the read. If you have no address handy, the chips under the box offer a few tokens from the trending board to try.
- Read the two answers first. Each is one word in bold followed by a clause that explains it. The risk word is coloured: green for Low, yellow for Medium, red for High.
- Read the reasons. Each line in the list is a check the read ran, with a pass, fail, or unread mark beside it.
- Check the time stamp under the list. It reads "Read 2 Oct, 14:05 UTC" or similar. A stored read describes the token as it was at that moment.
- If the page says "We have no stored read for this contract yet", follow the link to open the full read. That page starts a fresh scan. On Robinhood Chain a fresh scan takes about fifteen to seventy-five seconds.
- Scroll down to the board under the read. It lists what both chains are trading right now; click a row and its read replaces the one above. In its "Our read" column, "Unclear" means the stored read has no one-word risk, and "n/a" means there is no read.
How to read what it shows
The /scan page shows the stored read in a compact panel. The full read page, linked from the bottom of the panel, carries more.
The six things every read answers. The panel beside the read lists them. Am I early? What's my risk? Did insiders load the launch? Who holds it now? Is smart money in? Who's talking about it? The third covers whether the first buyers bought as one group, who funded them, and whether they have sold. The fourth counts what the top ten wallets hold, with pools left out, because pools are not people. The fifth says whether wallets PumpPill tracks, by record or by size, were seen buying. The sixth names which X accounts posted the contract, with bots and repeat posters filtered out.
The full read's questions. On the full Robinhood Chain read page, "Am I early?" and "What's my risk?" come first, each with a verdict word and a sentence. Four more questions follow, each with its own verdict and the evidence under it: "Can it trap me by design?", "Has the smart money already left?", "Is there anything actually here?", and "Can I get out?" A question the read could not answer says so and is counted as unknown, never folded into a pass.
The verdict sentence and its chips. The first line of the full page is one sentence built from the answers: the risk answer when there is a risk to state, otherwise the worst answer the read reached. The facts behind that sentence sit under it as chips.
The exit check. "Can I get out?" asks whether the token can be sold and what the deployer can still do to it: mint and freeze authority, the developer's share of supply, and the position of the liquidity.
Holders and bundle. The holder scan shows the top wallets and their share. The bundle scan asks who funded the early buyers, how much supply those coordinated wallets still hold, and whether they have sold. It then asks what the pool could actually pay them at today's price. When a coordinated bag is larger than the pool could pay out, the read flags it.
Unread. A line marked unread means the read could not check that item. The page says it in bold: "Unread is not clean." Treat an unread line as an open question, and weigh it as such.
The Buy button. Under the read, Buy opens @PumpPill_Trade_Bot in Telegram with the contract loaded. The button is on the read whatever the risk word says; the risk is stated beside it.
What it does not tell you
The Scanner reads the token at a moment in time. It does not predict where the price goes next, and a clear read is evidence, not a recommendation to buy.
A stored read can be hours or days old. Read the time stamp before you act on it, and open the full read for a fresh scan when the stored one is stale.
The holder count leaves pools out on purpose, so it will differ from a raw holder count elsewhere.
An unread line is an unread line. The Scanner will not fill it in with a guess, and neither should you.
The Scanner does not see your wallet, your position, or your entry price. It answers about the token, not about your trade.
Try it
Open /scan, paste the next contract someone sends you, and read the two answers before you read anything else about the coin. If the panel says there is no stored read, click through to the full read and let it run.
