Wallet safety

What we never ask for, and how to stay safe.

Market Compass is read-only by default. You can scan any token without connecting anything. This page says exactly where that line is.

What Market Compass never asks for

A seed phrase or private key. Never, for any reason. If any page or message claiming to be us asks for it, it is a scam.
A wallet to scan. Scanning a token needs only its contract address. No sign-in, no wallet, no account.
Blanket token approvals. We never ask you to approve unlimited spending of your tokens.
Payment to scan. Every network gets free scans each day. Extra credits are paid only on our own Credits page, never in a DM or on another site.

Six habits that stop most losses

Use a separate wallet for new tokens. Keep savings in a wallet you never connect to unknown sites. Fund the trading wallet with only what you can lose.
Check the contract address, not the name. Copies of a ticker are common. Compare the address with the project's own channel before you buy.
Read what you sign. A swap shows an amount and a router. A prompt that says approve all, set approval for all, or sign a message you cannot read is a reason to stop.
Revoke old approvals. After a trade, remove token approvals with a revoke tool for your chain. Old approvals are how drainers work.
Treat a perfect score as one input. A clear verdict means the checks we ran found no red flags. It is not a guarantee and not financial advice.
Never trust a direct message. Support staff, airdrop offers and urgent warnings that arrive in DMs are the usual start of a wallet drain.

Connecting a wallet or signing in does not move funds. Buying credits requires a separate SOL transaction that shows the amount and recipient in your wallet. Only approve a payment you intend to make.
