Web3 keeps shouting 'decentralization,' claiming there's no need to care about anyone's reputation, but when it comes to spending money, many still focus on the tweets and slogans issued by the project team and believe them. Isn't that a waste of time?
True fairness has never been about words; it depends on whether it can be genuinely verified on-chain. Take the Bubblemaps tool, for example; it doesn't engage in hollow interpretations but directly speaks with structural data: Was the token distribution genuinely equitable, or were goods secretly stuffed into associated addresses? Did anyone prepare dummy accounts in advance to reap benefits? Are those tokens that were supposed to be locked up being manipulated to bypass restrictions? — this tool can lay all these tricks bare for you.
This is not just a simple analysis project; it's more like a deep audit of the project's 'structural authenticity.' You don't have to force yourself to understand those complex codes; just learn to look at a few key points: for example, whether tokens are concentrated in a few addresses or spread out, which addresses seem to be a group (high overlap), and whether there is a group of addresses acting in sync (e.g., buying or selling at the same time) — understand these, and you will be able to spot pitfalls earlier than most and avoid those disguised as 'fairness.'
Ultimately, the security foundation of Web3 has never been about anyone's promises, but about the authenticity that can be verified by on-chain data.
