How DevScreener works
A launchpad where the dev is the first thing you see. Here's what we enforce, how grades are worked out and what $DEVSCREEN is.
How it works
- Connect and make a profileYour wallet is your dev identity. Add a name so people know who you are.
- Launch a coinImage, name, ticker and an optional dev buy. It goes out on a pump.fun bonding curve.
- Block 0 stays cleanOnly your dev buy lands in the launch block. Snipers wait like everyone else.
- It goes on your recordLaunches, bonds, dev sells and best high stay on your profile and drive your grade.
Launch rules
No 0 blocks
The launch block belongs to the dev buy alone, inside the create transaction. No other wallet's buy is accepted in block 0. Each coin page shows the first 8 blocks with how many wallets bought in each.
No vamps
Once a name or ticker launches here, nobody can launch the same name or ticker on DevScreener for 7 days. The launch form also checks live Solana pairs and warns you if your ticker already launched elsewhere that week.
Public record
Every launch, every dev buy, any dev lock and any dev sell is tied to the launching wallet and shown on the dev's profile. Records can't be edited or hidden.
Creator fees
Pick one at launch: fees to your wallet, fees to another wallet, or holder rewards. Holder rewards are permanent.
Grades
Every report starts at 100 and loses points for each risk found. The final score maps to a letter.
| Coin check | Points off |
|---|---|
| Mint authority still active | 30 |
| Freeze authority still active | 25 |
| Top 10 wallets hold over 50% / 30% / 20% (pools and curve excluded) | 30 / 15 / 7 |
| One wallet holds over 10% / 5% | 10 / 4 |
| Token-2022 program | 5 |
| No socials or website listed | 5 |
| Bonded with under $5k liquidity | 5 |
| Wallet check | Points off |
|---|---|
| No transactions at all | 40 |
| First transaction under 2 days / 7 days ago | 30 / 15 |
| Fewer than 20 transactions | 15 |
| Over 30% failed transactions | 8 |
| Active on fewer than 3 days | 5 |
| Under 0.05 SOL | 5 |
Dev grades on profiles also factor in DevScreener history: clean launches, bonds, dev locks and how fast the dev sells.
The Screener
The Screener reads public Solana data straight from an RPC node and market data from the DexScreener public API. Nothing is stored on our side; your history and watchlist stay in your browser.
Public RPCs sometimes refuse heavy lookups like holder scans. Paste your own RPC URL on the Screener page for complete reports.

$DEVSCREEN
$DEVSCREEN is the DevScreener project coin. It launches as a fair launch on pump.fun: no presale, no team allocation, the same 1,000,000,000 supply and revoked authorities as every pump.fun coin.
The contract address is posted on our X account first. Anything posted elsewhere before that is not us. Always check the CA against our X.
Creator fees from $DEVSCREEN fund the launch indexer, RPC costs and new Screener features.
FAQ
Is a good grade a guarantee?
No. Grades read public data and catch common red flags. A clean wallet can still sell, and a new wallet isn't always a bad actor. Use the grade as one input.
Why does the Screener say "RPC limit"?
Free public RPCs refuse some large lookups. Add your own RPC URL on the Screener page and the full holder scan runs.
Can I screen coins that didn't launch here?
Yes. Any Solana wallet or coin address works, including any pump.fun coin. Open coin.html?ca=… for a full coin page.
Where are my posts and profile stored?
Until the public feed opens, they're saved in this browser and tied to your wallet address.
Does DevScreener ever ask for my seed phrase?
Never. Connecting only shares your public address. Every launch or claim asks you to sign a transaction in your wallet.
What does "Dev locked" mean?
The dev chose to lock their dev buy for 30 days at launch. The badge shows on the coin and the dev's record.
