What is a honeypot token?
A honeypot is a token you can buy but cannot sell, usually because the contract is coded to block or heavily tax sells - trapping your funds.
Honeypots rely on hidden transfer restrictions or extreme sell taxes. The chart may look like it only goes up precisely because no one is allowed to sell.
The reliable defence is to inspect the contract's authorities and transfer rules before buying. PumpScore lists sellability and transfer-tax checks in its methodology as planned signals.
