Methodology
How we reach a read.
TRENCHGPT is an intelligence and education tool. It is not a signal service, it does not promise profit, and it never presents a coin, wallet, or trader as endorsed. It does not execute trades and will never ask for a private key or seed phrase.
Evidence model
Every claim is labelled FACT (retrieved from a named provider with a timestamp), INFERENCE (a reading built on those facts), or UNKNOWN (evidence is missing or providers disagree).
Where a value cannot be retrieved we print Unavailable. We never substitute zero, and mock values are never presented as live: demo fixtures carry a DEMO DATA badge everywhere they appear.
When two providers disagree, both readings and both retrieval times are shown and the confidence level drops.
Token risk map
- Top-holder concentration excluding AMM pools and burn addresses.
- Mint and freeze authority state.
- Liquidity depth and estimated slippage for example order sizes.
- Creator / deployer history where it can be sourced.
- Funding-source clustering and bundled supply where reliably detectable.
- Volume-to-liquidity ratios and unique-buyer trends as wash-trading tells.
Sniper and bundle detection is heuristic. When detection is not reliable for a launch type we say so rather than guessing.
Wallet reputation context (0–100)
A wallet is never called “smart” from win rate alone. The score is context, not endorsement, and it is withheld entirely when sample quality is too low — Insufficient data instead of a number.
| W | Component | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| 25% | Realized track record | Closed positions only. Unrealized PnL is excluded. |
| 20% | Risk-adjusted consistency | Profit factor and observed drawdown across time windows. |
| 15% | Repeatability / sample quality | Trade count and time coverage. Small samples cap the score. |
| 15% | Liquidity awareness & copyability | Entry size versus pool depth; slippage a follower would eat. |
| 10% | Transparency / disclosure | Only verified, sourced public identity. Otherwise unknown. |
| 10% | Community respect | Requires citable public sources, never vibes. |
| 5% | Integrity / risk flags | Self-transfers, cluster links, deployer associations. |
Data sources
Jupiter
Token search and metadata, pricing, trading metrics.
Limitations: Routing-derived prices can differ from pool-derived prices on thin pairs.
Birdeye
Market overview, OHLCV, trades, liquidity, holder distribution, security context.
Limitations: Endpoint availability depends on the subscribed plan.
DEX Screener
Pairs, token profiles, boosts and community takeovers, pair context.
Limitations: Documented rate limits apply; boosts are paid placements, not quality signals.
Helius
RPC, parsed transactions and events, wallet history, webhooks and streams.
Limitations: Historical depth and parser coverage vary by program.
X API / licensed social provider
Public social signals and narrative velocity.
Limitations: Only public, licensed data. We never scrape authenticated surfaces.
TRENCHGPT knowledge base
Terminology, launchpad mechanics, community context, sourced trader profiles.
Limitations: Curated and reviewed; every entry carries a review date and source.
Limitations
- On-chain data shows behaviour, not intent.
- Past realized performance does not predict future results.
- Social data is partial and can be manufactured.
- Provider outages and rate limits produce partial answers, which we label.
- No answer here is a recommendation to buy or sell anything.
Terms
TRENCHGPT is provided for research and education. You are responsible for your own decisions. Provider data is used under each provider's terms; we do not scrape authenticated sites or redistribute licensed feeds.
Privacy and safety
Accounts are optional and use magic-link email sign-in. We store your conversations, watchlists, preferences, and answer feedback, readable only by you under row-level security. Public wallet addresses you look up are treated as public data; we do not attempt to identify people behind them.
All third-party API calls run server-side. No provider key ever reaches the browser. TRENCHGPT will never request a seed phrase or private key, and v1 executes no trades.
