Token and listing
Approved list and tiers
Which memes can be held by an index, the Blue chip, Standard and Degen thresholds, the safety rules, and the latest scan.
Indexes can only hold tokens on the on-chain MemeRegistry approved list. Listing is team only and goes through a 48 hour timelock. Delisting or downgrading is instant: it blocks new apes into indexes holding that token, but it never blocks redeems.
Tiers#
| Tier | Market cap | ETH pool liquidity | Pool age | Max weight | Used by |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Blue chip | at least $10M | at least $500k | at least 30 days | 40% | MEME500 and any index |
| Standard | at least $1M | at least $50k | at least 7 days | 40% | User-built indexes |
| Degen | at least $250k | at least $20k | at least 3 days | 15% | User-built indexes, which are then flagged Degen |
Safety rules for every tier#
- No buy or sell tax, and not a honeypot.
- No blacklist, pause or freeze function unless ownership is renounced.
- No owner mint or takeover function.
- Verified source code.
- Top 10 wallets hold at most 40% (excluding burn, LP and tagged exchange wallets). Blue chips are exempt.
- At least 80% of LP tokens locked or burned. Blue chips are exempt.
- A V2 style WETH pool (Uniswap V2, ShibaSwap or SushiSwap) so the hook can trade it.
Why blue chips are exempt from two rules#
For large, old memes the top holder list is dominated by exchange custody wallets, so a top 10 rule would exclude coins like SHIB for the wrong reason. Their main pools are also deep enough and old enough that an unlocked LP is a much smaller risk; PEPE's main pool, for example, shows 0% of LP locked but holds over $30M. Standard and Degen tokens must pass both rules.
How tokens are scanned#
- On-chain reserves: the token's WETH pair on Uniswap V2, ShibaSwap and SushiSwap, read directly from the pool.
- GoPlus token security: taxes, honeypot simulation, blacklist, pause, mint and owner powers, holder distribution and LP locks.
- GeckoTerminal: pool age.
- CoinGecko: market cap (an FDV estimate is used when market cap is missing).
Anyone can run the same pre-check from the Approved memes page with “Check a token”. It does not list anything; listing remains team only.
