What Save the Kids is, and what it does

Each dimension is explained on the directory page, and the reasoning behind it is taught in the Academy research process.

Supply and value capture

A hard maximum supply that cannot be raised without the agreement of essentially every participant. The token captures no protocol revenue. Any value rests on governance rights, speculation, or future changes that have not happened yet.

The founding team retains control over upgrades or parameters. Ownership is heavily concentrated. A small number of wallets hold enough to determine the price on their own.

Where it is strong and where it is not

✓ Strengths
  • None. The token collapsed within hours and promoters sold into their own audience.
✗ Weaknesses
  • Collapsed within hours of launch
  • Promoters reportedly sold allocations into buyers they had attracted
  • The advertised anti dump protection did not work as described
  • Charity branding was used to attract buyers

Incident history

2021

Collapsed within hours of launch. Several influencer promoters were reported to have sold their allocations into the buyers they attracted, and the advertised anti dump protection did not function as described.

Our read

Recorded as one of the clearest influencer promotion cases. It was marketed as a charity token with an anti dump mechanism, that mechanism was reportedly altered before launch, and several promoters sold into the buyers they had attracted. Investigations followed and the episode became a reference case for undisclosed promotion.

The main risk

A collapsed influencer promoted token where promoters sold into their own audience.

Before you buy anything

Check the contract address against the project's own documentation rather than a search result or a screener link, since impersonation tokens with identical names and logos are listed constantly. Check the order book depth before assuming you can exit at the quoted price. And write down what would make you wrong before you buy, not after. The Academy thesis module covers why that single habit protects more capital than any indicator.
