Token Age
The Token Age assessment evaluates how long a token has been in circulation. Older tokens generally indicate maturity, resilience, and stability, whereas newer tokens may pose higher risks due to volatility, liquidity issues, or potential scams.
Token Age Thresholds
Token age is measured in days since launch, providing insight into a project’s track record and market presence.
Why Token Age Matters
- Older tokens have demonstrated staying power, reducing risks associated with rug pulls or liquidity failures.
- Newer tokens require closer scrutiny, as they may:
- Lack a strong market presence.
- Experience higher volatility.
- Have low liquidity, making trades more difficult.
- Be unverified projects, increasing scam risks.
Age-Based Risk Assessment
Tokens are categorized based on their age thresholds, helping agents assess risk levels effectively.
Note: Token age is just one factor in risk assessment.
It works alongside other metrics like Liquidity Health, Trading Activity, and Holder Distribution to provide a comprehensive evaluation.
By considering Token Age, your agent can prioritize established projects while carefully assessing newer tokens for potential risks.
