As the crypto industry reaches a market cap of $3.89 trillion, the decentralized finance (DeFi) space has seen a dramatic increase in the number of rug pull incidents. On November 14, there were 31 rug pull incidents in a single day, bringing monthly losses to $15 million. This shows the increasing sophistication of scammers.
Allen Zhang, CTO of Web3 cybersecurity firm GoPlus, said the most common type of rug pull is the “honeypot token” scam. Scammers make it difficult to assess risk with multi-wallet control strategies.
