FAQ
Quick answers to the most common questions about DexScanner.
🪙 Does DexScanner have a token?
No. DexScanner has no token, presale, or airdrop. If you see a token or presale claiming to be affiliated with DexScanner, it is almost certainly a scam — always do your own research before interacting with any token.
📊 Where does DexScanner get its data?
Market data (pairs, prices, liquidity, volume, transactions) is sourced from the DexScreener public API, which aggregates on-chain DEX activity. DexScanner adds a server-side cache in front of it so the app stays fast and the upstream isn't hammered. Data is informational only.
🔑 Do I need an API key?
No. The public read endpoints require no key. There is no SLA and usage is subject to rate limits — see the API reference.
🔌 Is there a public API or stream?
Yes — a JSON trending feed and a realtime SSE stream. You can also embed live charts via iframes.
💸 Is paper trading real?
No. The Buy/Sell panel is a simulated paper-trading sandbox — no real funds, orders, or custody are involved. It exists to practice and track a hypothetical portfolio.
📱 Is there a mobile app?
DexScanner is a responsive web app and works in any mobile browser; there is no native app required.
