It is possible to code a smart contract token to have an innate on-chain "tax" whenever someone wants to buy or sell the tokens. The way it works is that a percentage of the tokens being bought or sold is transferred to a preset address - essentially "taxing" the buyer and seller and thus discourage wash trading. However, this code function is can be abused where the tax rate is unreasonable, making it a Honeypot.
