How we review
- Identify the coin or token, network and relevant trading pairs.
- Record observed liquidity and timestamp for each venue.
- Cross-check protocol dependencies and distribution against project documents and block explorers.
Crypto risk analysis for coins and tokens
Assess crypto risks using liquidity, venues, concentration and protocol data. Includes an order book calculator and research from €45.
How do I identify the biggest risks in a crypto asset?
First check whether a representative trade could be executed within the relevant price band. Then examine dependence on venues, large holders and protocols. A quoted price alone says little about your ability to exit.
Typical risk factors
- Thin bid depth, wide spreads and dependence on a single venue.
- Concentrated holdings, custody risk and uncertain wallet attribution.
- Bridge, oracle or protocol dependencies and gaps in historical data.
FREE MINI TOOL
Check order book depth
Intended sale ÷ visible bid depth × 100. Use one venue, a fixed price band and one snapshot.
Visible orders can change or disappear. Above 100% means the sale exceeds the entered depth.
Calculated from your inputs only. No automatic data retrieval or investment score.
How the research score is built
- Liquidity and tradability35 %
- Concentration and custody25 %
- Technology and dependencies25 %
- Governance and disclosure15 %
We rate documented characteristics in each criterion from 0 to 100. 0 means weak, 50 means mixed and 100 means strong. The research score is the sum of each rating × its weight, divided by 100.
The risk score uses its own scale from 0 for low to 100 for substantial evidenced risk. Evidence coverage is the sum of weights for criteria with sufficient evidence. While any criterion remains unresolved, we show the gap and withhold the overall score.

Frequently asked questions
Does high trading volume imply high liquidity?
Volume reflects past trading. Execution also depends on spread, available bid depth and distribution across venues.
What identifier is needed?
A native coin usually requires a clear network identifier. For tokens, include the network and contract address.
How are large wallets interpreted?
Publicly labelled exchange, bridge and custody addresses are separated where evidence supports it. Uncertain attribution remains open.
What happens when market data conflicts?
We record the source, venue and timestamp. Conflicting evidence can leave the research score unresolved.
Can the analysis predict a loss?
It documents identifiable risk factors and plausible scenarios. It does not quantify the probability of loss.
