Scan This Token

This is an editorial token overview, not a scan report or safety rating. Open Sentinel with this address and chain to request a scan. Check the report timestamp and any unavailable checks before relying on its results.

Key Risk Considerations

  • ▸A bytecode check found none of the common mint, pause, or blacklist function signatures. Custom-named functions can still exist, so review the verified source.
  • ▸Memecoins are typically driven by sentiment and liquidity rather than protocol cash flows; check holder concentration and pool depth.
  • ▸Contract facts on this page come from an on-chain bytecode and storage check on 2026-10-29. Roles and implementations can change, so recheck on the chain explorer.

What a Sentinel Scan Checks

Honeypot signals

Checks third-party honeypot, sell-restriction, and transfer-tax signals.

Holder concentration

Measures top-wallet concentration when coherent provider evidence is available.

Liquidity depth

Examines same-chain DEX liquidity, pool age, and pool composition.

Owner permissions

Checks available indicators of owner, mint, pause, blacklist, and fee controls.

Proxy pattern

Checks provider and source indicators of upgradeable proxy contracts.

Source availability

Checks explorer-verified source and ABI availability; does not independently recompile bytecode.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the SHIB contract address on Ethereum?

Shiba Inu (SHIB) is deployed at 0x95aD61b0a150d79219dCF64E1E6Cc01f0B64C4cE on Ethereum as an ERC-20 token with 18 decimals.

Does the SHIB contract have admin controls?

A bytecode check found none of the common mint, pause, or blacklist function signatures. Custom-named functions can still exist, so review the verified source. Memecoins are typically driven by sentiment and liquidity rather than protocol cash flows; check holder concentration and pool depth. Contract facts on this page come from an on-chain bytecode and storage check on 2026-10-29. Roles and implementations can change, so recheck on the chain explorer.

How do I check if SHIB is safe?

Run a Firepan Sentinel scan for a point-in-time token risk assessment. Read the individual findings, report timestamp, and unavailable checks. A scan is not a guarantee of safety.

Building a token?

Sentinel scores deployed tokens. To check your own Solidity or Vyper code before launch, run a free smart contract scan on a public GitHub repository.
