Recent scams in the crypto world, particularly honeypot scams and fraud via crypto ATMs.
🔍 What’s happening
Honeypot scams are exploding in smart contracts: investors buy a token that prevents them from selling it later, a digital golden cage signed by an evolved contract.
In the United States, states have just legislated on crypto ATMs to limit fraud through the anonymity of these machines used by scammers.
