Lena reads contracts and liquidity for a living. Before joining SolForger she spent years doing on-chain forensics — tracing where liquidity went after a launch, why a token would not sell, and which authority a team quietly kept. She covers the safety side of the forge: how to revoke authorities, how to read a certificate, and how to tell a real liquidity pool from a honeypot before you send a single lamport.
