Every link format recognised

Four bare-address shapes, 23 specific site link layouts, and a generic fallback for any other http(s):// link.

Bare addresses

An address with no link around it is matched against four shapes. These need no http(s):// at all — they match anywhere in a message's plain text.

Bare-address shapes

Sui coin types are matched and stripped out of the text first, so a Sui type is never also read as a bare EVM address.

The Solana shape by itself isn't enough — a 32–44 character base58 string is common text. It only becomes a candidate once it decodes to exactly 32 bytes; a string that starts with 0x, or decodes to any other length, is discarded.

Known-site links

23 rules match a link by its host, then read the chain and the token or pair id out of its path. A host matches a rule when it equals the listed suffix or ends with it, so www. and other subdomains work the same as the bare domain. The first rule whose host matches wins, and the generic fallback below never runs for that link.

Known-site rules

For birdeye.so specifically, the chain always comes from ?chain=; when that query parameter is absent it defaults to Solana.

Generic fallback

Any other http(s):// link — one that didn't match a known-site rule above — is parsed generically.

Chain hint, first hit wins: a fixed table of single-chain hosts, else the first of — the subdomain label, then each path segment, then a ?chain=, ?chainid= or ?network= query value — that is a recognised chain name or slug.

Single-chain hosts

Address: any of nine query keys — address, outputcurrency, outputmint, inputcurrency, token, tokenaddress, ca, mint, contract (case-insensitive) — read as an address if present; otherwise every path segment is tried as an address.

The candidate is typed a pair when the path contains /pair, /pool or /lp/; otherwise it's typed a token.

Hint vs. address family

This applies everywhere a chain hint is produced, known-site rules included: a chain hint that doesn't fit the candidate address's own shape is discarded rather than kept. A 0x… address (EVM-shaped) next to ?chain=solana in the same URL is read with no chain hint, not a wrong one.

What counts as a link

Only http:// and https:// URLs are harvested as links. A bare dexscreener.com/… with no scheme in front of it is not read as a link — though any address-shaped text inside it is still caught by the bare-address rules.
