Dexscreener & DEXTools Metadata Monitor

In the rapidly evolving Solana ecosystem, projects frequently update token metadata (logos, names, websites) on DEX aggregators. Such updates can signal project upgrades, rebranding, or malicious spoofing.

Solanalyzer integrates with Dexscreener and DEXTools APIs to track these metadata modifications and synchronize them with on-chain data for authenticity validation.

Functionality

  • Automated Metadata Crawling: The system fetches metadata snapshots (logo, name, ticker, description, verified tags) from Dexscreener and DEXTools at defined intervals.

  • Change Detection Algorithm: Hash comparisons identify changes in token visual or descriptive data between snapshots.

  • Cross-Validation: Detected updates are matched against on-chain metadata (via Solana’s Token Metadata Program) to ensure authenticity.

  • Alert Delivery: Alerts summarize:

    • Token name and address

    • Type of metadata update (logo, name, website, description)

    • Old vs. new value comparison

    • Verification result (valid or suspicious)

Purpose

This feature empowers users to detect potential impersonation or phishing attempts, monitor project transparency, and validate metadata integrity without manual checking.
