Lookalike test
Catch the copyat a glance.
Most screens show only the first four and last four characters of an address. Paste the real one and the one you doubt; nothing leaves your browser.
Paste two full Solana addresses on the left. The card shows them the way a wallet list would, with any differing characters in red.

Why the ends matter
Eight characters carry the whole name.
Shortening is everywhere
Wallet activity lists, explorers, trading pages and chat previews all cut an address down to its ends. People glance at the first four and last four and move on.
Copies are cheap
A copycat that grinds the same four-and-four can borrow your name, picture and look after a few minutes of computing.
A word raises the bar
Readers remember a word better than random letters, and every extra matched character costs a copycat about 58 times more work.
For creators
Make your coin easy to verify.
Publish the full address
Pin the complete address on your X profile and site, not only the short form, and tell holders to check a few middle characters too.
Put a word in your ends
A recognisable start or end, made with the address maker, gives holders something to remember.
Compare before you share
When a new coin appears with your name, compare it here and post the result for your holders.
No pattern is ever reserved here
Pokk does not block patterns or watch the chain for copies. The real defence is holders who check the full address.
