GoPlus Security API
Quick Access
The check_address_security tool provides instant address risk assessment. All transfers are also auto-checked before execution.
Assess token contracts, wallet addresses, and approvals for security risks using the free GoPlus API.
Base URL
https://api.gopluslabs.io/api/v1
No API key required. Free tier is sufficient for normal usage.
Security Checks
1. Token Security
GET /token_security/{chain_id}?contract_addresses={address}
Chain IDs: 1 (Ethereum), 56 (BSC), 137 (Polygon), 42161 (Arbitrum), 10 (Optimism), 8453 (Base)
Key response fields:
is_honeypot — token cannot be sold (CRITICAL)
buy_tax / sell_tax — percentage tax on trades (HIGH if > 10%)
is_mintable — owner can mint unlimited tokens
hidden_owner — ownership is concealed
can_take_back_ownership — owner can reclaim after renouncing
selfdestruct — contract can self-destruct
is_proxy — upgradeable proxy contract
is_open_source — source code is verified
holder_count — number of holders
lp_holder_count — number of LP holders
is_anti_whale — anti-whale mechanism present
owner_percent — percentage held by owner
creator_percent — percentage held by creator
2. Address Security
GET /address_security/{address}?chain_id={chain_id}
Checks if an address is associated with: phishing, stealing, malicious contracts, or blacklists.
3. Approval Security
GET /approval_security/{chain_id}?contract_addresses={address}
Checks token approval risks: whether the approved contract is malicious or has known exploits.
4. NFT Security
GET /nft_security/{chain_id}?contract_addresses={address}
Checks NFT contract for: privileged operations, restricted transfer, self-destruct, and trading risks.
5. Phishing Site Detection
GET /phishing_site?url={url}
Checks if a URL is a known phishing site. Use this before directing users to any DeFi frontend.
Risk Scoring Workflow
Evaluate the response fields and classify risk:
CRITICAL (do not proceed):
is_honeypot: 1
selfdestruct: 1
hidden_owner: 1 AND is_mintable: 1
HIGH (strong warning):
buy_tax > 10% or sell_tax > 10%
can_take_back_ownership: 1
is_open_source: 0 (unverified source)
owner_percent > 50%
MEDIUM (note to user):
is_proxy: 1 (upgradeable)
is_mintable: 1 (alone)
holder_count < 100
LOW (informational):
is_anti_whale: 1
- Minor tax (< 5%)
Risk Report Template
🛡️ Security Report: {token_name} ({symbol})
Chain: {chain_name} | Contract: {address}
Risk Level: {CRITICAL|HIGH|MEDIUM|LOW}
✅ Passed:
- Open source: Yes
- Not a honeypot
- No self-destruct
⚠️ Warnings:
- Sell tax: 5%
- Mintable: Yes
- Holder count: 87
❌ Critical:
- (none)
Recommendation: {proceed with caution / avoid / safe to interact}
