Useful checks.

Tools are signal, not truth. Use them together and do not outsource your judgement.

Explorer

Solana explorers

Use explorers to review transaction signatures, accounts, token mints, holders, and programme interactions.

URL

URL scanners

Check suspicious links before opening them. Look for redirects, phishing verdicts, new domains, and odd hosting.

Domain

WHOIS and DNS

Check domain age, nameservers, redirects, and whether a site was created minutes before a hyped drop.

Wallet

Wallet safety tools

Use wallet and ecosystem tools to review connections, token accounts, delegates, and recent transactions where supported.

Browser

Browser hygiene

Separate crypto browsing from normal browsing. Keep extensions minimal and remove anything you do not trust.

DNS

Block known badness

DNS filtering is not perfect, but it can stop known malicious domains before the wallet prompt appears.
