Sharing Hutchins’ words, Jenner wrote in her post:

“Here is Sophia Hutchins, my manager, rest assured. I have not been hacked and keep sending this to the moon. I’m out on the golf course enjoying my Sunday and I will not be going live in spaces today. My team is managing this launch. It is authentic. Keep it up.”

Hutchins stated that the token was real and that Jenner’s account was not hacked. She wrote, “A lot has been going on today, and yes this crypto on my account is real.” She added, “If you wanna get in on this, get in in a hurry.”

Despite these assurances, the community remained skeptical about the project as it was later discovered that the address associated with the JENNER token was previously linked to a content creator Kazumi’s account. Kazumi had promoted a token, ZUMI, and her account was hacked. There are also speculations that the scammers may have used deepfake technology to impersonate Jenner in the video.
