VerifyDrop
Trust & Verification
The Identity Layer
The only Active Verification Protocol on Solana. While other tools scan code, VerifyDrop verifies the humans behind it. Our 3-tier system combines automated contract analysis, manual expert review, and developer identity verification into an on-chain trust badge that projects can't fake.
Key Strengths
KYC for contracts (developer identity verification)
AI-powered scam detection that protects your wallet before you interact with malicious contracts. SolSafe maintains the largest Solana scam database and provides real-time threat alerts. When a project fails verification on VerifyDrop, SolSafe helps you recover with tax loss harvesting.
The industry-standard Solana block explorer for transaction history, contract details, and on-chain data. Essential for verifying what VerifyDrop and SolSafe flag. Think of it as the raw X-ray before the doctor (VerifyDrop) gives the diagnosis.
Automated contract scanning that checks for common rug pull vulnerabilities like active mint authority, unlocked liquidity, and concentrated holder wallets. A solid first-pass tool, but limited to code-level analysis without developer verification.
Visual token holder distribution analysis that reveals hidden wallet clusters and insider concentration. Best used alongside VerifyDrop to understand the full picture: who holds the tokens AND who built the contract.
