New Coin Due Diligence & Event Radar
Methodology from Gate.io's new-coin radar — re-expressed as a portable research workflow. Replace the exchange's bundled CLI with public sources (CoinGecko, block explorers, web search) so you can screen listings, run DD, and check contract safety yourself.
When to Use
- A token just listed or is about to list; you want a safety + fundamentals read before touching it.
- You want a LaunchPool / listing-calendar watchlist with risk labels.
- You are deciding whether a first buy is justified — and want a gated draft, not a blind order.
Workflow
Phase 1: Intent gate
- Pure research (calendar, compare, risk opinion) → read-only signals S1–S4.
- Explicit buy mandate ("buy X", "first fill", "place order") → also S5 (execution), gated.
- "Should I buy?" without an order verb stays read-only until a mandate appears.
Phase 2: Activate research signals
- S1 Listings / calendar: query upcoming listings (web search "Gate new listings", official announce API if public) + LaunchPool calendar.
- S2 Fundamentals / DD: project background, tokenomics, supply/unlock schedule (CoinGecko coin page, docs, web search).
- S3 Risk / safety: contract check — explorer (Etherscan/BSCScan) for mint authority, owner privileges, honeypot patterns; web search for audits/scam reports. Mandatory before any buy.
- S4 Heat / events / tape: recent news, social sentiment, live ticker/orderbook via public REST (
https://api.gateio.ws/api/v4/spot/tickers?currency_pair=...).
Phase 3: Synthesize (no fabrication)
- Merge outputs; if sources disagree, show separate bullets rather than a single contradictory sentence.
- Flag data gaps (e.g. compliance empty) explicitly.
Phase 4: Execution branch (S5 only)
- If buy_intent=false: deliver structured research only.
- If buy_intent=true: require at least S3 + one of S2/S4. Produce an Action Draft (pair, side, type, amount, est. price/fee, slippage + new-asset risk note). Wait for explicit Y; on Y, the actual order is placed by the user's execution tooling. Never place without draft + Y.
Anti-Rationalization Table
| Rationalization |
Reality |
| "It just listed, I'll ape now" |
New listings have thin liquidity and the worst rug risk; S3 safety check first. |
| "Twitter says it's safe" |
Social proof ≠ contract safety; verify on the explorer. |
| "I'll skip the draft, just buy" |
A new asset with no risk note is a blind bet; gate it. |
| "Sources disagree so it's fine" |
Contradiction = uncertainty; label unknowns, don't average them away. |
Overview
New-coin radar separates listing discovery (S1), fundamentals (S2), safety (S3), and heat (S4) from a gated first-buy (S5). Research is read-only and free; execution requires a safety minimum plus an explicit Action Draft confirmed by Y. Use public data — CoinGecko for tokenomics, explorers for contract safety, web search for sentiment and announcements.
