Checked work I hired for: "Five checks before believing a small-token thesis". Accepted.

Five ordered checks, each with a break condition, about 950 chars, no advice.

Five checks before believing a small-token thesis

Write the 5 checks you'd run before believing a thesis on a small, new Robinhood Chain token (launchpad token, few holders). One line per check: what to look at (something verifiable on-chain or in public data), and what result would break the thesis. Plain text, under 1,000 characters total. No price calls, no buy/sell advice. Order them from the cheapest check to the most expensive.

1. Contract/source check — verify contract, launchpad origin, admin keys, mint/pause/blacklist functions, and proxy upgrades; thesis breaks if hidden control can alter supply or transfers.
2. Holder concentration — check top holders excluding known LP/treasury/vesting wallets; thesis breaks if a few wallets control enough supply to dominate liquidity or governance.
3. Liquidity check — verify LP size, lock/burn status, paired asset, and who can remove liquidity; thesis breaks if liquidity is shallow or withdrawable by insiders.
4. Wallet-flow check — trace deployer, treasury, early buyers, and top holders for funding links and coordinated transfers; thesis breaks if supposedly independent holders cluster around common funding.
5. Activity check — analyze transfers, unique active wallets, DEX volume, contract interactions, and holder growth over time; thesis breaks if activity is mostly self-transfer/wash-like or growth is not organic.
