What the data says about PYTH
PYTH starts from a genuinely strong place at the contract level. The mint authority has been renounced, so the supply is fixed and no one can dilute it, and freeze authority is renounced too, so your tokens are always yours to move and sell. Both powers being renounced is the main reason PYTH's 92/100 comes down to market factors, not contract ones (2026-08-10).
On the trading data, PYTH shows workable liquidity of $179.72K and 306,437 wallets holding as of 2026-08-10. Weigh the $179.72K pool against a ~$335.17M cap and one thing stands out — it's a slim pool for the size, so PYTH's price is easier to move than its market cap implies, and large size should scale in and out patiently. With 306,437 holders, ownership is spread wide — the opposite of the handful-of-wallets setup that lets one seller steer the price.
Think of 92/100 as a snapshot, not the final word on PYTH. PYTH earns a higher grade as the pool deepens past $179.72K and the holder base widens; and it would slip if concentration crept up among the 306,437 holders or depth faded. These figures are from the 2026-08-10 read; the live scanner has PYTH's current numbers whenever you want them.

FAQ
Is PYTH a safe token?
As of the 2026-08-10 snapshot, PYTH scores 92/100 (grade A) on TrustDex's on-chain read — based on its renounced mint authority, renounced freeze authority, liquidity of $179.72K and 306,437 holders. That grades contract and market structure, not price direction — a clean read is not a guarantee, so re-scan before trading, since on-chain state can change.
Can you sell PYTH, or is it a honeypot?
On Solana, the lever that can block a sale is the freeze authority, and PYTH's is renounced as of 2026-08-10 — no one can freeze your balance to trap you in. With $179.72K of liquidity there's a pool to sell into, though how cleanly depends on your size against that depth.
Who holds most of PYTH?
PYTH has 306,437 holders as of 2026-08-10. A headline count doesn't reveal how much the largest wallets control, so read it with the concentration figure on this page — broad distribution is a good sign, a few wallets owning most of the supply is not.
Can PYTH's supply be inflated?
No — the mint authority is renounced as of the 2026-08-10 snapshot, so no new supply can be created and the circulating figure is a ceiling.
What is the PYTH contract address?
The PYTH mint address on Solana is HZ1JovNiVvGrGNiiYvEozEVgZ58xaU3RKwX8eACQBCt3. Always verify a token by its contract address, not its name or ticker — scam clones copy tickers, but the address is unique.
Where can you buy PYTH safely?
Run the live on-chain scan at the top of this page first; if PYTH clears, you can swap it here directly. Whatever venue you use, match the contract address (HZ1JovNiVvGrGNiiYvEozEVgZ58xaU3RKwX8eACQBCt3) exactly before trading — copying the ticker is how clone scams catch buyers, and the address is the one field they can't fake.
