What do these PinkSale badges mean

KYC Badge

KYC = Know Your Customer

• This badge means the project team has submitted personal identification to PinkSale for verification.
• Helps prevent rug pulls and scams by holding founders accountable.
• Investors feel safer knowing the team is known to PinkSale — even if not public.

Key Point: The team’s identity is verified privately by PinkSale, not always doxxed publicly.

Audit Badge

• Indicates that the smart contract code has been audited by a third-party security firm.
• Checks for vulnerabilities, backdoors, and scam code.
• Common auditors: SolidProof, Dessert Finance, Cyberscope, TechRate, etc.

Key Point: This adds technical trust — but audits don’t guarantee safety. Always review the audit report.

SAFU Badge

SAFU = Secure Asset Fund for Users

• Projects with this badge have gone through an additional screening process by PinkSale.
• Often includes stricter audit and KYC procedures.
• The term “SAFU” originated from Binance and signals a higher standard of investor protection.

Key Point: SAFU projects are less likely to be scams, according to PinkSale’s internal vetting.

DOXX Badge

• Means the project team has publicly revealed their identities.
• You’ll typically see:
  • Full names
  • LinkedIn profiles
  • Team bios
  • Sometimes video intros

Key Point: A doxxed team = public accountability. It reduces the chances of exit scams.
