加密投资者最近发现了一个陌生的标记为“ ethg”的代币

A crypto investor was left baffled after logging into his Uniswap-linked wallet to find an unfamiliar token, labeled "ETHG" for Ethereum Games, in his balance with a valuation exceeding $420,000.

一位加密投资者登录了他的单款链接钱包后，他感到困惑，以找到一个不熟悉的代币，标有“ Ethg”的以太坊游戏，其估值超过420,000美元。

The investor, who preferred to remain anonymous, confirmed that he had never purchased or interacted with this token, leading him to suspect a scam.

宁愿保持匿名的投资者确认他从未购买过这个令牌，导致他怀疑骗局。

According to Blockaid, an on-chain security platform, the token was flagged as malicious. The token price, displayed at $0.211 per unit with a balance of 2 million ETHG, might appear substantial at first glance. However, this displayed value is essentially meaningless since the token lacks any real liquidity.

据链上安全平台Blockaid称，令牌被标记为恶意。乍一看，令牌价格为每单位0.211美元，余额为200万ELTH，乍一看可能似乎很大。但是，由于令牌缺乏任何真正的流动性，因此显示的价值本质上是毫无意义的。

The price is calculated by multiplying the last recorded trade price by the token balance. This can be easily manipulated by scammers through wash trades or artificial price setting on illiquid tokens to create staggeringly large but ultimately useless token valuations.

价格是通过将最后一个记录的交易价格乘以令牌余额来计算的。骗子可以通过WASH交易或非流动令牌的人造价格设定来轻松操纵这一点，从而创造出惊人的大型但最终无用的代币估值。

The investor reached out to Vet (@Vet_X0), a validator on the XRP Ledger (XRPL), for an explanation.

投资者与XRP Ledger（XRPL）上的验证器兽医（@Vet_x0）联系了兽医（@vet_x0）。

"This is unfortunately the downside to blockchains that handle everything with smart contracts like ETH. Do NOT, under any circumstances, interact with these tokens or the sites linked with it," explained Vet.

Vet解释说：“不幸的是，这是区块链用智能合约等所有内容等所有内容的缺点。在任何情况下，都不要与这些令牌或与之相关的站点进行互动。”

"You're risking dangerous approval exploits to empty your whole wallet (infinite token approval). Interacting with these kinds of tokens on Ethereum opens the door to dangerous exploits."

“您可能会冒着危险的批准利用来清空整个钱包（无限代币批准）。与以太坊上的这些令牌互动为危险的利用打开了大门。”

He further highlighted the difference in architecture between the XRPL and Ethereum. While both handle tokens, the XRPL has native support for issued tokens without relying on smart contracts.

他进一步强调了XRPL和以太坊之间建筑的差异。尽管两个都处理令牌，但XRPL在不依赖智能合约的情况下对发行的代币都有本机支持。

"On the XRPL, you must explicitly trust a token issuer through a trustline before receiving any token. Additionally, users can easily zero out or remove trustlines at will without granting token-level approvals or exposing their wallet to contract calls."

“在XRPL上，您必须在收到任何令牌之前通过信任线明确信任令牌发行人。此外，用户可以随意轻松零或删除信任，而无需授予令牌级别的批准或将其钱包暴露给合同电话。”

This stands in contrast to Ethereum, where tokens are automatically sent to wallets without permission and users might be tricked into engaging with a malicious smart contract upon attempting to swap the token, potentially leading to the drainage of their entire wallet.

这与以太坊形成鲜明对比的是，在未经许可的情况下，代币会自动将其发送到钱包，并且用户可能会在试图交换令牌时与恶意智能合约互动，并可能导致整个钱包的排水。

"This is something the creators of XRP had the foresight to mitigate with the trustline system," added Vet.

VET补充说：“这是XRP的创建者具有前瞻性来减轻信任系统系统的东西。”

"It's a small but crucial difference that can have enormous consequences, especially in the face of scams."

“这是一个很小但至关重要的差异，可能会带来巨大的后果，尤其是面对骗局。”
