24 altcoins showed their true face in the last 10 days
Pepe Coin, which debuted in April and provided 4,200% returns in a short time, inspires fraudsters. Countless meme tokens were released after Pepe. Most of them were worthless or the teams behind them were malicious.
PeckShield says BENS, PSYOP, FOG, TINDER and WorldCoin are also involved in these projects. Related cryptocurrencies have been trending on social media over the past week. The team behind the SEI token released today disappeared after rug pull.
