Key facts
- LP tokens = pool ownership share — whoever holds them can withdraw reserves
- Time-locked LP: verified locker program + public unlock timestamp
- Burned LP: irreversible — reserves stay in pool, LP supply destroyed
- securedPct = verified secured USD ÷ total executable liquidity USD (Launch Score)
What LP tokens represent
When you deposit into an AMM pool, the program mints LP tokens representing your share of the pool reserves. Whoever controls the LP tokens can withdraw proportional base and quote assets — that is pool ownership, not the same as holding your project token.
- Pool address — the AMM account holding vault balances
- LP mint — fungible receipt for your pool share
- Vaults — token accounts holding base and quote reserves
- LP custody — which wallet or program currently holds the LP mint supply
Custody comparison
| Model | Liquidity withdrawable? | Reversible? | Unlock date? | How to verify | Primary risk |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Founder wallet custody | Yes — anytime | Yes | No | LP tokens in a normal wallet on Solscan | Rug pull via removeLiquidity |
| Time lock | No until unlock | Yes after unlock | Yes — on-chain | Locker program + unlock timestamp | Short lock or partial lock theater |
| Permanent burn | No | No | No | Burn/incinerator transaction | Irreversible — ensure correct pool |
| Multisig custody | If signers agree | Policy-dependent | Maybe | Multisig address + signers | Signer collusion or compromise |
Secured percentage math
Launch Score uses USD-weighted coverage, not a binary “locked” badge. Useful terms:
Example: Pool A $90k unlocked + Pool B $10k verified locked → securedPct ≈ 10%, not “mostly locked.”
- Total LP supply — outstanding LP tokens for a pool
- Locked LP amount — LP sent to a verified locker program
- Burned LP amount — LP sent to an incinerator address
- Secured percentage — verified secured USD ÷ total executable liquidity USD
- Unsecured percentage — remainder still pullable by LP holders
Misleading lock claims
- Only a small LP percentage locked while the largest pool stays in a founder wallet
- Short unlock window marketed as “locked”
- New unlocked pool opened while an old locked pool is shown in marketing
- Locking project tokens instead of LP tokens — does not secure pool reserves
- Locker address not linked — screenshot “proof” without on-chain verification
- Partial pool coverage — one locked pool does not secure liquidity in another pool
How Launch Score reads liquidity custody
MakeMeACoin Launch Score measures public on-chain and market signals — not an audit. For liquidity it reports depth, LP custody label, secured USD share, burned amount when verifiable, and unknown status when data is insufficient.
Unknown lock status means verification failed or data is incomplete — it is not an automatic rug-pull verdict. Combine score modules with your own Solscan review before trading.
- LP custody — unlocked, verified lock, verified burn, or unknown
- Secured share — USD-weighted percentage with verified lock/burn
- Liquidity depth — separate tradeability module for pool size
- Coverage — how much of detected liquidity has classified custody
What this means
Use this page to evaluate lock claims before trading. MakeMeACoin creates Raydium CPMM pools at /lp but does not lock LP. Launch Score reports USD-weighted securedPct, custody labels, and unknown status when verification is incomplete — unknown is not an automatic rug verdict.
Quick LP custody states
| State | Can LP holder withdraw? | Reversible? | Verification |
|---|---|---|---|
| Unlocked LP | Yes | Yes | LP tokens in a normal wallet |
| Time-locked LP | Not before unlock | Yes after unlock | Locker program + unlock timestamp |
| Burned LP | No | No | Confirmed burn/incinerator transaction |
| Unknown custody | Unknown | Unknown | Insufficient verification data |
Step-by-step
- Create Raydium CPMM liquidity via /lp and receive LP tokens in your wallet.
- Choose time-lock (third-party locker) or permanent burn — MMAC has no native LP locker.
- Publish verifiable locker URL or burn transaction — not a screenshot alone.
- Check Launch Score securedPct and LP custody label after on-chain confirmation.
- Repeat custody proof for each new pool — secondary pools need their own verification.

FAQ
What does locked liquidity mean on DexScreener?
Usually that a known locker or burn was detected for some LP. Verify which pool, unlock date, and USD share yourself.
Is burned LP the same as locked?
Both can count as verified secured custody if provable on-chain. Burn is permanent; time-lock expires on the unlock date.
Does MakeMeACoin lock my liquidity?
No. Use a third-party locker or burn LP tokens yourself after pool creation at /lp.
What is securedPct?
USD share of executable liquidity with verified lock or burn — not a binary locked/unlocked label.
Does unknown LP custody mean a scam?
No. It means Launch Score could not fully verify custody — treat as unverified, not guilty or innocent.
