### **Score Interpretation**:

* **Low Score**: This rating indicates the high risk level, suggesting that the token might be involved in risky or fraudulent activities.
* **Higher Scores**: Typically reflect a lower risk of fraudulent activities, suggesting more stability and safety for investors. The exact implications of score will depend on specific criteria set by the scoring model, which assesses transaction patterns, source code integrity, and market behavior.

### How Scores Are Generated

Scores are derived using a trained machine learning model that processes:

* **Transactions**: Analyses patterns and behaviors within transaction data.
* **Source Code (Bytecode)**: Reviews the underlying bytecode of the token's smart contract.
* **Additional Scan Data**: Includes liquidity pool (LP) presence, trading volume, and other relevant metrics.
