About this desk
A CTO alert means holders relaunched a project the deployer abandoned.
A team that pays for a boost or edits its screener page is spending effort. Bonk Colosseum reads CTO to see where that effort goes and whether holders follow.
As a rule, project signals show what the people behind a token are doing: paying for promotion, updating links, relaunching or moving supply. Bonk Colosseum follows CTO on BNB Chain for those actions.
Start here: Read the deployer's history: earlier launches, how long they lasted and how they ended. Confirm new social links point to accounts with real history, not accounts created that day.
Glossary
- Mint authority
- The right to create new supply; on a safe token it is revoked.
- Graduation
- The moment a launchpad token completes its curve and liquidity moves to a regular pool.
- CTO
- Community takeover: holders relaunch a token after the team leaves.
- Wash trading
- Fake volume created by one party trading with itself.
What passes here
Bonk Colosseum narrows the CTO lane on BNB Chain with a simple, public screen:
- market cap at least $50.0K
- liquidity at least $10.0K
- at least 250 holders
- top-10 wallets holding at most 30 %
At build time the lane held 48 recent alerts covering about 3 days; 10 of them cleared the screen. Median values for the passing alerts: cap $161.2K, liquidity $40.1K, holders 792. None of the 48 lane alerts had liquidity below a tenth of the market cap. Across the whole lane, the ten largest wallets held a median 27 % of supply.
Values measured on 2026-09-23 from the Empire feed. The screen is a filter, not a recommendation.

A ten-minute check
The same short routine, every time.
| # | Check |
|---|---|
| 1 | Compare volume with liquidity and holder growth. |
| 2 | Try a small sell early; some tokens restrict selling. |
| 3 | Write down the level that proves you wrong before any buy. |
| 4 | Re-check the token an hour later; many setups change fast. |
| 5 | Search the contract in the Empire Telegram network to see other alerts on it. |
| 6 | Confirm the token cannot be minted again or frozen in your wallet. |
