Privacy and rules

Last updated: 10 November 2026

WIRETAP is an independent project that reads public data from the Solana blockchain and tells which pump.fun coins are traded by real people and which are pushed by bots. This page says, in plain words, what we keep about you, why, and the rules of the game.

How to reach us: send a direct message to our X account (it opens with the launch; the link appears here).

1. If you just read the site

• No cookies, no ads, no tracking across websites.
• We count visits and games (for example "120 visits today, 40 runs played"). To count each visitor once a day, the server turns your IP address and browser name into a one-way code using a secret that changes every day and is never written down. The codes are deleted after 2 days. We cannot turn them back into an IP address, and we cannot follow you from one day to the next.
• Our web server does not keep access logs.
• Your browser keeps a few settings on your own device (local storage, not cookies): the sound switch, your practice score and, if you play the ranked game, your sign-in token. Clearing the site data in your browser removes them.

2. If you play the ranked line-up

• What we keep: your username, your public wallet address, a random device code made by your browser, your runs (scores, strikes, times) and the round results.
• Your IP address at sign-up is kept for 48 hours only, to limit fake accounts (at most 2 new detectives per connection per day), then erased.
• Public: the leaderboard shows your username and a shortened wallet address. Wallet addresses are public on the blockchain anyway.
• Your secret key never reaches us. The wallet is created inside your browser. When you sign back in with your backup, your browser sends only a signature that proves you own the wallet.
• How long: as long as the game runs. You can ask us to delete your detective at any time with a direct message on X (see above).

3. If you check a coin

We keep the token address you sent and our result, which come from public on-chain data. Nothing about you is attached to them.

4. Other services your browser talks to

Like any website, some parts load from other companies, which then see your IP address: DexScreener (live prices), GeckoTerminal (the token chart, only when it is shown), cdnjs / Cloudflare (the wallet generator, only in the ranked game), and the hosts of the token images (the coins' own picture links, such as IPFS gateways or the DexScreener image server). The typefaces are served from our own server, not from Google. Links to X, Solscan or DexScreener take you to their sites and their rules.

5. Why we may use this data, and your rights

We run the game you asked to join and protect it from cheating and abuse (legitimate interest, and the service you request). You can ask to see, correct or delete your data, or object to its use, with a direct message to our X account (see above). You can also complain to your data protection authority (in Italy: the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali).

6. What the verdicts are, and what they are not

• A verdict is a statistic computed from public on-chain numbers: the fees paid per trade, the share that goes to trading apps, how many different wallets trade. "FAKE" means the trading looks automated by those numbers; it is not an accusation against any person.
• Verdicts can be wrong. We keep every past call and show how it aged in "Case closed / Were we right?".
• We never change a coin's name: a coin is called what its creator called it. We withhold a coin's picture only when it is explicit, carries a slur, or accuses a real person, and the file says so.
• Nothing here is financial advice. Memecoins are extremely risky. Do your own research.

7. Rules of the ranked line-up

• One detective per person, one wallet per detective. The wallet is the one made on this site.
• One life per day (UTC). 10 seconds per case. A wrong pick or a timeout is a strike; the third strike ends the run. Your score is the number of cases solved.
• Every 10 minutes, the best run that ended in that round wins the round (ties: the earlier run).
• The coins in the line-up are judged with the same method as the site. A new coin joins the line-up only after a person has checked its pictures; coins whose picture we withhold stay out.
• No bots, scripts, several accounts or bug exploits. We may remove runs, detectives or rounds that break these rules.
• Rewards: there are none right now. If rewards are switched on, the amount, the conditions and any eligibility checks will be written on this page first. Rewards go only to the wallet tied to the detective. You are responsible for keeping your secret key: we cannot recover it.
