Verification, proxy status and what the owner can do, in plain English.

USDT has risky owner powers: exit to USDC on SwapChan →

Chain Id: 1
Chain: Ethereum
Address: 0xdAC17F958D2ee523a2206206994597C13D831ec7
Symbol: USDT
Owner: 0xC6CDE7C39eB2f0F0095F41570af89eFC2C1Ea828
Ownership Renounced: no
Risk Level: high
Summary: TetherToken, owned by 0xC6CD…a828; owner can pause transfers, blacklist addresses, seize blacklisted funds.
Method: Bytecode selector scan (impl + proxy) + EIP-1967 slots + owner(); verified source/ABI from Sourcify or Routescan.
Caveat: Selector scans can miss renamed functions and can't see who holds roles in AccessControl contracts; 'owner can' assumes the owner key is active.
