Why a Solana token name is not enough

A name or symbol is a search clue. The mint address identifies the token you are actually selecting.

Compare the full mint

Anyone can create a token that uses a familiar name or ticker. A search for “SOL,” for example, can return many unrelated mint addresses. Compare the entire address to the one published by the intended project or a reliable explorer; do not choose by name, logo, or price alone.

ClaimScanHQ places a small number of Solana Explorer reference mints ahead of name-only market listings. “Reference” describes an address you can compare, not an endorsement of the token or a claim opportunity. Other listings have not been identity-verified by ClaimScanHQ.

Native SOL and Wrapped SOL differ

You can check a public wallet’s native SOL balance without selecting a token. Wrapped SOL is an SPL token with its own mint address. Choosing it asks for that separate token balance.

What a balance check says

A public wallet check reads the native SOL balance and, if you select a token mint, that token’s balance. It does not search for unclaimed allocations. If you are unsure which mint is intended, clear the selection and check SOL alone.
