Read Fake beside Vol to understand the volume amount flagged by the scan and its reported share. Confirm the token and chain first. This explanation covers the Solana result shown below. Availability and presentation can vary by chain.
What it measures
In volume context, Fake: $X [Y%] reports a dollar amount of flagged trading volume for the reported one-hour period. When shown, Y% expresses the reported flagged amount as a share of the one-hour volume used in that result. Amounts and percentages are rounded for display.
This is a trading-volume measurement. It does not count holders or measure their share of token supply. The Fake field beside Hodls is the separate Fake Holder measurement.
The one-hour label describes the reported period. It does not guarantee that the amount and total cover exactly the same trades or observation times.
Read the amount and any percentage from the same returned result. Availability and update timing can vary; the scan does not establish complete coverage of all trading.
What it cannot tell you
Fake is a detector label, not a verdict. The amount does not identify people, establish common ownership, or prove that trades were deceptive. It also does not prove that the remaining volume came from independent buyers or genuine demand.
An absent field is unavailable, not a reported zero. A displayed $0 is a reported value, not proof that no flagged activity occurred or that coverage was complete. If the amount or percentage is missing, keep that part unknown. Do not reconstruct a missing percentage from rounded amounts.
The number alone does not establish token safety or predict a price move.
One worked example
![Historical DREAM Scanner result showing Vol: $30.6K [1h] and volume-context Fake: $0.](/assets/docs/ba26c73cfb5dad5f9ca9baea9b406455001e3ae788c3e77e7bff4441fedfba83.jpg)
![Unchanged market-field crop from the result above, including Vol: $30.6K [1h] and Fake: $0.](/assets/docs/8ffc568748990600851be25853c4ea12b2e31e5f833762dc211f93e5de8f0b01.png)
The capture shows Vol: $30.6K [1h] and Fake: $0, with no percentage beside Fake.
Read this as: the result reports about $30,600 of one-hour volume and displays $0 for flagged volume. Keep the missing percentage unknown. The screenshot does not establish why the amount is zero, verify the underlying records, or prove that all $30,600 was genuine trading.
The separate Fake: 47 [27%] beside Hodls describes flagged-address counts. It is not the percentage of fake trading volume in this example.
Return to your original scan and read Fake with its one-hour Vol value. If a field is absent, continue with the available activity information without assuming zero. Check an independent reference when an important conclusion depends on activity outside the scan.
