# Anti-Rug Badge

This badge verifies that a project is legitimate and has met certain criteria to prevent rug pulls. The criteria include reviewing their code, team, and roadmap, and ensuring that they have completed all other requirements on the list.

1. **KYC** (Know Your Customer) verification
2. **Doxxed**, meaning that their identities are publicly known.
3. **Registered** as a legal entity in their country of origin, requiring them to provide legal documentation or other proof of registration.
4. **Audit**
5. **Pool Lock-**&#x54;his feature locks a percentage of the funds raised by a project in a smart contract or other mechanisms to prevent the project from using all of the funds at once.
6. **Safe Dev-**&#x54;his may involve requiring them to provide a commitment to holding a certain percentage of the project's tokens or agreeing to other long-term commitments that demonstrate their dedication to the project.
