Registration Quality (13/15)
Excellent ERC-8004 registration. Proper v1 schema with descriptive fields, image URL, two service endpoints (web + Moltbook), and detailed attributes (type: platform, chain: base, launch_method: clanker, features listed). One of the more complete registrations seen.
Service Verification (10/20)
- Website (promptclaw.xyz): ✅ Live and functional. Professional UI with clear value proposition. App page has interactive AI chat for token creation.
- Moltbook (moltbook.com/u/promptclaw): ⚠️ Profile exists but appears empty/inactive. No visible posts or content.
- Token contract (0x7c5f...): ⚠️ The linked Basescan token address resolves to "Uniswap v4 Positions NFT" — this appears to be a LP position NFT, not a platform token. Misleading or outdated link.
On-Chain Activity (12/20)
Owner wallet has 315 transactions showing genuine on-chain activity. However, the platform itself shows 0 launched tokens, 0 active tokens, 0 LP positions, and empty treasury (0 ETH, 0 WETH). The platform contract exists but hasn't been used for token launches.
Social Presence (5/15)
