In the wild world of meme tokens, where fortunes can be made or lost in a blink, spotting the real gems amid the scams is a constant challenge. A recent tweet from MobyScreener's team sheds light on this issue, highlighting how traditional platforms like DexScreener often fall prey to manipulation, and how their tool is stepping up to change the game.

The tweet points out a common problem: DexScreener's trending lists frequently feature honeypots and outright scams. For those new to the term, a honeypot is a deceptive token designed to lure in buyers, but rigged so you can't sell your holdings—essentially trapping your funds. These shady projects climb the charts because DexScreener's algorithm relies on metrics like trading volume, which are surprisingly easy to fake.

Take a look at the example shared in the tweet—a promo for a "Solana Volume Generator" bot. For as little as 0.1 SOL, anyone can pump artificial volume into their token on platforms like PumpSwap and Raydium, propelling it onto trending lists on DexScreener, DexTools, Photon, or Axiom. This kind of tool makes it simple for scammers to create the illusion of popularity, drawing in unsuspecting traders chasing the next big meme coin.

But MobyScreener is flipping the script. As the tweet explains, their trending feature is powered entirely by "smart money" flows. Smart money refers to the moves made by experienced, high-capital traders—often called whales—who have a knack for spotting winners early. If these savvy players aren't engaging with a token, it won't make it to MobyScreener's trending list, no matter how much fake volume is thrown at it.

This approach promises better data, more reliable trending, and ultimately, superior discovery of promising meme tokens, especially on fast-paced chains like Solana where many memes launch via platforms like Pump.fun. The result? Traders get a clearer path to better outcomes, avoiding the pitfalls that plague other screeners.

And the proof is in the pudding—or in this case, the user stats. The tweet includes a snapshot showing over 1.5 million users flocking to MobyScreener in the last 30 days alone, from August 10 to September 8, 2025. That's a massive vote of confidence in a space where trust is everything.

MobyScreener itself ties into the meme ecosystem with its own token, $MOBY (contract address: Cy1GS2FqefgaMbi45UunrUzin1rfEmTUYnomddzBpump), which powers the platform. This integration means users can benefit from community-driven insights while participating in the token's economy.
