Cryptoâs back in the spotlight. Bitcoin and ETH are hitting new highs, the charts are green, and people are finally feeling bullish again. But while weâre all celebrating, scammers are celebrating tooâand theyâre getting sneakier by the day.
Itâs not just the old-school âsend me 1 ETH, Iâll send 2 backâ nonsense anymore. The scams now look legit, feel real, and sometimes even use real influencers or project names. And honestly? Itâs getting dangerous.
đ¤ Scams Are Getting Smarter
Hereâs what weâre seeing more of lately:
⢠Fake airdrops using logos from big-name projects
⢠Phishing links that look like trusted wallets or DEXs
⢠Deepfake livestreams or AMA replays using well-known figures
⢠âNew tokenâ launches with fake audits and influencers
⢠Bots in Telegram and Twitter comments pushing links and FOMO
They donât just steal money. They erode trust in real projects. And if it keeps going like this, we might end up with tighter platform rules that make life harder for actual builders and creators in this space.
đĄď¸ So What Can We Do About It?
We all have a part to play here. Whether youâre a trader, dev, content creator, or just watching from the sidelines, hereâs how we can push back:
1. Make Security Talk Normal
Letâs not just talk about the next 10x gem. Letâs normalize talking about how to not get rugged.
That means sharing simple things like:
⢠How to spot fake links
⢠How to revoke token approvals
⢠Why you NEVER give out your seed phrase
2. Donât Boost What You Donât Trust
If youâre sharing a project, a giveaway, or an airdropâdouble check it first. Seriously. It only takes one sketchy repost to lead someone into a trap.
3. Use That Report Button
If you see something shady, donât ignore it. Report the post, flag the comment, let others know.
Platforms are trying, but they need help from real users.
4. Lift Up the Good Voices
There are a lot of honest creators out here trying to educate and bring real value. Letâs support them.
