Risk & Disclosures

Not financial or tax advice

top traders content is strictly educational and is not investment advice or a solicitation to buy or sell any assets or to make any financial decisions. It is not tax advice — talk to your accountant. Do your own research.

Do your own research

Markets are volatile and crypto-assets can lose all value. You are solely responsible for your decisions; consult a licensed professional before acting.

Attention boards, memecoins and scam projects

The Attention / CT Heat board, trending lists, launch feeds and “what leaders buy” blocks rank tokens by how much attention they get on X, Telegram, on-chain venues and public trader leaderboards. Attention is not quality: many of these are memecoins on Robinhood Chain, Solana, Base or BNB Chain that are minutes or days old, with no audit, no team you can name and liquidity that can be pulled at any moment.

• A listing is a measurement, not an endorsement. We do not audit contracts, verify teams or vet projects, and we have no relationship with any project shown unless the page says so.
• Some of these projects are scams. A contract can be a rug pull, a honeypot that blocks selling, a hidden mint or a copy of a real token's name. A price can go to zero in minutes.
• Never send funds because of this Site. Do not transfer money or tokens to any address, wallet or “support” contact because it appeared on a board or in a post that cites us.

If you trade a token from a board anyway, treat the whole amount as money you can lose.

Backtests, paper accounts and bots

Lab reports, indicator backtests, strategy pages, bot pages and paper accounts show simulated results. A backtest is a calculation over past data with assumptions about fees, slippage and fills; a paper account is a forward simulation with no real money at risk. Neither is a record of real trading, and neither predicts future results. Published controls (random entries, shuffled names, benchmarks) show where a result may be luck — they do not turn a simulation into a promise. A bot's status describes our software, not a recommendation to copy it, and nothing here is a signal service.

Data can be wrong or late

Numbers come from third-party venues and APIs (exchanges, on-chain indexers, social feeds, leaderboards) and from our own collectors. Feeds break, stall and disagree. Pages label data as stale where we detect it, but a figure can be wrong without a label, and a ticker can be delisted or a contract replaced after we printed it. Verify at the source before acting.

Disclosure

• Referral and affiliate links. Some links to exchanges, trading terminals and other products carry our referral code (for example on Hyperliquid or GMGN). If you sign up or trade through them we may receive a commission or a share of fees. The link does not make us a party to your trade, and the venue's own terms apply.
• Holdings. The top traders team holds crypto-assets, including some it writes about. Calls are timestamped for transparency, but our views are not impartial advice.

No guarantee

We do not warrant accuracy, completeness or outcomes and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, accept no liability for losses arising from reliance on the Site — including losses on tokens or projects shown on it that turn out to be scams, on venues reached through our links, or from data that was wrong or late — see the Terms.

Third-party products

Any third-party products, venues or tokens referenced carry their own risks and terms; review them independently. Using a venue we link to is your contract with that venue, under its own checks and rules.
