Definition

A rug pull happens when a founder or insider removes value from a token — pulling LP, dumping treasury supply, minting new tokens for personal wallets, or freezing sellers. Classic soft rugs are gradual dev dumps; hard rugs are one-shot LP withdrawals.

Rug signals include active mint authority, active freeze authority, un-burned LP, high dev wallet concentration, and unverified socials. MakeMeACoin's Launch Score flags every one of these automatically.
