The founder of Binance, Changpeng Zhao (CZ) is in the news again
Apr 23, 2025 at 12:15 am
This time not due to a stock exchange listing or lawsuit, but because his wallet received millions of fake tokens
De oprichter van Binance, Changpeng Zhao (CZ), is weer eens in het nieuws, maar dit keer niet vanwege een beursnotering of rechtszaak. In plaats daarvan ontving zijn crypto wallet miljoenen nep tokens, zoals gemeld door blockchain veiligheidsbedrijf PeckShield.
The founder of Binance, Changpeng Zhao (CZ), is once again in the news, but this time not because of a stock exchange listing or court case. Instead, his crypto wallet received millions of fake tokens, as reported by blockchain security company Peckshield.
PeckShield meldde vrijdag dat er op 21 april meer dan 90 miljoen nep tokens naar een wallet met een link naar CZ werden gestuurd. De tokens waren van Grok, een verwijzing naar het nieuwe AI project van Elon Musk.
Peckshield reported on Friday that more than 90 million fake tokens were sent to a wallet with a link to CZ on 21 April. The tokens were from Grok, a reference to the new AI project by Elon Musk.
De Grok tokens waren echter niet echt. Er bestaat geen officiële Grok cryptomunt, wat betekent dat dit een typische crypto scam was.
However, the grok tokens were not real. There is no official grug crypto coin, which means that this was a typical crypto scam.
"Een aan P.R. Changpeng Zhao gerelateerd adres heeft 90M Grok tokens ontvangen," zei PeckShield. "De scammers worden steeds slimmer met hun oplichtingstechnieken."
"An address related to PR Changpeng Zhao has received 90m grok tokens," said Peckshield. "The scammers are getting smarter with their scam techniques."
Oplichters gebruikten vaak populaire termen, beroemde namen en zelfs AI om hun praktijken geloofwaardig te laten lijken. Dit maakte het voor investeerders moeilijkov om echt van nep te onderscheiden.
Scammers often used popular terms, famous names and even AI to make their practices seem credible. This made it difficult for investors to really distinguish from fake.
Een methode van scammers die vaak terugkwam, was het gebruiken van bekende personen. Elon Musk, Vitalik Buterin en dus ook Changpeng Zhao werden vaker gebruikt voor scams. Dit soort oplichtingen waren bedoeld om vertrouwen op te bouwen onder nietsvermoedende investeerders.
A method of scammers that often returned was to use famous people. Elon Musk, Vitalik Buterin and therefore also Changpeng Zhao were used more often for scams. These kinds of scams were intended to build trust among unsuspecting investors.
De oplichting verliep via social media of airdrops, waarbij mensen gratis tokens ontvingen. Deze tokens hadden echter geen waarde of bevatten kwaadaardige code. In sommige gevallen werden ze gebruikt om toegang te krijgen tot iemands wallet of om iemand naar een phishing-website te leiden.
The scam went via social media or airdrops, where people received free tokens. However, these tokens had no value or contain malignant code. In some cases they were used to gain access to someone's wallet or to lead someone to a phishing website.
Een andere positieve ontwikkeling is de lancering van de Best Card en Best Wallet Token ($BEST). De betaalkaart geeft gebruikers de mogelijkheid om hun crypto gemakkelijk te gebruiken in fysieke winkels. Bovendien zullen de 250.000 gebruikers van Best Wallet profiteren van lagere transactiekosten en hogere beloningen bij het staken dankzij de $BEST tokens.
Another positive development is the launch of the Best Card and Best Wallet token ($ Best). The payment card gives users the option to easily use their crypto in physical stores.
