100-Point Forensic Audits · Crypto & Presales

Crypto has plenty of hype.
We audit the evidence.

GemHunter applies strict forensic due diligence to cryptocurrency and presale projects. Every project is scored against the same 100-point rubric across six weighted categories. Claims that can't be verified on-chain or in public records don't count.

The Rubric

Six categories · 100 points · Every project, same standard
Exhibit A · 20 Pts

Team Transparency

Who are they? Doxxed, verifiable humans with independent employment records — or stock photos, front-men, and burner handles. Anonymity or thin identity is a transparency risk factor in this category; it is not, by itself, proof of fraud.

Exhibit B · 20 Pts

Execution History

What have they shipped before? Do claimed fundraising totals match on-chain balances? Track records don't lie. Whitepapers do.

Exhibit C · 20 Pts

Product Reality

Does the thing exist? A live mainnet or working product with verifiable users outranks a presale countdown timer every time.

Exhibit D · 15 Pts

Code Transparency

Open repository, real commit velocity, and commit-pinned cryptographic audits — or a locked box you're asked to trust.

Exhibit E · 15 Pts

Corporate & Jurisdiction

Where is the legal entity registered? How much supply is concentrated in insider or offshore foundation wallets?

Exhibit F · 10 Pts

Information Ecosystem

Organic developer and enterprise coverage — or syndicated pay-to-publish PR wire spam? Follow the noise back to its source.

Category points above are the published maximum weights. The published score is the sum of those six measured category scores (out of 100). The Gem / Solid / Watch / Trash stamp is an editorial verdict issued after the measured score and a closing “My Take” stress test — an adversarial pass that attacks the project's own best case. GemHunter has not published fixed numeric cutoffs that automatically map a total score to a verdict label; treat the stamp as judgment informed by the evidence, not a hidden formula. A weak or near-zero score in a core category (especially Team Transparency, Execution History, or Product Reality) heavily influences that judgment, but there is no separate unpublished disqualification table beyond what you see here.

The Methodology

Evidence-first · Zero paid placements

GemHunter was built on a single premise: retail investors deserve due diligence grounded in verifiable evidence rather than paid influencer narratives.

Every audit follows a repeatable verification protocol: confirm team identities against independent records, cross-check claimed fundraising against on-chain balances, inspect smart-contract and repository activity, and screen media coverage for manufactured hype.

Most crypto “reviewers” are paid by the projects they cover. GemHunter's standard is simple: an open 100-point weighted rubric, evidence anyone can check, and editorial verdicts that follow the measured score and My Take. Anonymous or thinly documented token teams are scored as a transparency risk — not treated as automatic proof of fraud.

Verification Standards

  • 100-point weighted scoring rubric
  • On-chain treasury & raise verification
  • Paper-doxx & front-man risk screening
  • Manufactured hype & PR syndicate detection
  • 30-day active exploit & regulatory incident gate

Publisher & Editorial Policy

Independence · Corrections · Pseudonymous publishing

GemHunter is published under the public brand GemHunterAI (@DonaldMoor91672 on X). The desk uses a pseudonymous public identity to keep personal details private while remaining reachable for corrections and questions.

Responsibility for published scores, verdicts, and corrections rests with the GemHunter desk. Contact for corrections or challenges: @DonaldMoor91672 on X. Material errors are corrected on the dossier page when verified; score or verdict changes are noted in the public case file.

When GemHunter scores other projects, anonymous or thinly documented teams are treated as a transparency risk under the Team Transparency category — not as automatic proof of fraud. The same evidence standard applies whether a team is public or private.

Holdings in a covered token, if any, are disclosed on that token's dossier. Holdings do not change the rubric, the measured score, or the editorial process.

What We Will Not Do

  • No paid audits, ratings, or placement from token projects
  • No selling a Gem / Solid / Watch / Trash stamp
  • No inventing evidence or manufactured outcomes
  • Reader tips ≠ project sponsorship
  • Commission-bearing tool links labeled if/when they exist

Investor Security & Verification Stack

Essential Self-Custody & On-Chain Forensics
01 // Cold Storage

Hardware Wallet Isolation

Never connect a primary vault wallet to an unvetted presale widget or claim contract. Isolate long-term holdings on air-gapped or hardware-backed signing devices.

02 // On-Chain Forensics

Contract & Cluster Scanners

Verify mint/freeze authorities, liquidity lock durations, and insider wallet clusters independently before trusting any project whitepaper or PR headline.

03 // Portfolio Audit Trail

Tax & Cost-Basis Tracking

Maintain an immutable audit trail of multi-chain swaps, airdrop thawing tranches, and cost-basis lots across self-custody wallets and regulated exchanges.

Reader-Supported Research // Independent Tip Desk

Support Independent Forensic Audits (X Money & Crypto)

GemHunter refuses paid project reviews, presale allocations, and token promotions. Reader tips are voluntary support for independent infrastructure. They are not payment from token projects and do not buy scores, verdicts, or placement. If a dossier or red-flag breakdown saved you capital, you can tip via X Money or direct on-chain transfer:

Disclosure: GemHunter never accepts payment from token projects or presales for audits, ratings, or placement. Reader tips fund independent infrastructure only and never influence scores or verdicts. Tool links in the security stack (hardware wallets, explorers, tax trackers) are general self-custody references. If any recommendation later carries a commission or affiliate relationship, it will be clearly labeled on that page. Do not assume a commercial relationship exists unless it is disclosed.
