Red Flags I Look for Before Touching Any Altcoin

After getting rugged (twice), I’ve started developing my own personal checklist to spot red flags in new altcoin projects. Here are a few I now take seriously:

Team not doxxed: If there’s no face, it’s a risk.

No GitHub activity: A “project” with no code is a meme, not a coin.

90%+ tokens held by insiders or devs: Obvious exit trap.

Whitepaper is vague or just buzzwords.

No clear revenue model: If it doesn’t generate value, it won’t last.

Just wanted to throw this out there for discussion: What are some of your “dealbreaker” red flags when it comes to altcoins?
