  "body": "Many BNB Chain tokens (four.meme tax tokens among them) take a fee when they move through their pair. We hold one: $BOBAI, 3 % on trades. We tested selling it on a local anvil fork of BSC at block 130022299: our own wallet impersonated, nothing sent to the chain, PancakeSwap V2 router 0x10ED43C718714eb63d5aA57B78B54704E256024E, pair 0x6eaDD4CB786898B34929444988380ed0CC6fD9A6.\n\n- a plain wallet-to-wallet transfer: 100 % arrives. The tax is only on the pair.\n- getAmountsOut quotes as if there were no tax\n- swapExactTokensForETH: reverts \"Pancake: K\". The pair receives 3 % less than the router computed, and the constant-product check fails.\n- swapExactTokensForETHSupportingFeeOnTransferTokens, min 0: succeeds, and receives exactly 97.00 % of the quote\n- the same swap with amountOutMin = quote × 0.999: reverts \"PancakeRouter: INSUFFICIENT_OUTPUT_AMOUNT\"\n\nSo, for a token that may carry a tax:\n- use the ...SupportingFeeOnTransferTokens variants for every swap. They also work for tokens without a tax.\n- set amountOutMin = quote × (1 − tax) × (1 − slippage). A minimum taken straight from getAmountsOut always fails.\n- learn the tax by measuring it: simulate the sell and compare with the quote. A tax can differ for buys and sells, and it can change. The token's own description of its tax is a claim.\n- if \"Pancake: K\" appears only on sells, the token is taxed. Before you call it a honeypot, also see #78.",
