What is Token Lock Proof and How to Share It

Every new DeFi project faces the same challenge: how do you prove to potential investors that you're legitimate? Words and promises aren't enough — the crypto space has been burned too many times. Verifiable, on-chain proof is the answer. When your tokens or LP are locked in a smart contract, that lock exists permanently on the blockchain. Anyone can verify it. The challenge is making that proof accessible and easy to share.

Lock proof is verifiable evidence that tokens are locked in a smart contract. On Aurevaz, every lock gets a unique Lock ID that can be looked up on the Explorer page. The proof shows: • Token name and amount locked • Lock owner address • Unlock date (or vesting schedule) • Current status (locked, vesting, or unlocked) • Chain and contract address This information is read directly from the blockchain — it can't be faked or manipulated.

Aurevaz offers embeddable badges that display your lock proof visually. Go to the Badge page, enter your Lock ID, and the badge is generated instantly. The badge shows all key information at a glance — token amount, status, unlock date, and chain. It's designed to be recognizable and trustworthy, like a verified badge on social media. You get embed code in two formats: • HTML iframe — embed directly on your website • Direct link — share the verification URL in chats and socials

Maximize the visibility of your lock proof by sharing it everywhere: Website: Embed the badge on your homepage or tokenomics page. It shows visitors immediately that your liquidity is locked. Telegram / Discord: Pin the verification link in your main chat. New members often ask "is liquidity locked?" — now they can check themselves. Twitter: Include the verification link in your bio or tweet it after locking. Tag @aurevazcl for a potential retweet. CoinGecko / CoinMarketCap: When applying for listing, include your lock proof as evidence of legitimacy. DEX listings: Some aggregators show lock status. Having verifiable proof helps your listing application.

Lock early, share often. Lock your LP immediately after adding liquidity, before promoting your token. First impressions matter. Lock a high percentage. Locking 50% of LP while keeping 50% unlocked still allows a partial rug. Lock 80-100% for maximum trust. Use long durations. A 30-day lock shows minimal commitment. 6-12 months is the minimum for credibility. Re-share after extending. If you extend your lock, announce it. It shows ongoing commitment. Combine with other trust signals. Lock proof is powerful, but combine it with audits, doxxed team, and active development for maximum credibility.
