How we check every Solana app
Each app in this directory gets the same research-based check before it is listed. We read its official fee page and docs, note who holds your keys (self-custody, an embedded wallet, or the platform), and look for audits, past hacks, exploits and legal cases in news and on-chain records. We also note known phishing look-alikes, because fake versions of popular Solana sites are the most common way traders lose funds.
Scores use our published method: fees, features, security record and ease of use, weighted the same way for every app in a category. A high score is not an endorsement to trade: memecoins, leverage and hot wallets are all high risk, and nothing here is financial advice.
Is a Solana app legit? A quick checklist
- Open it from the official domain listed in our review, never from a DM, ad or reply.
- Check who holds your keys and whether you can export them.
- Read the fee page: a missing fee page is a warning sign.
- Search for the app name plus “hack” or “exploit” and read our safety guide.
- Never sign a transaction that changes the owner of your accounts. If it already happened, follow what to do if your wallet was drained.
