The Shiba Inu team has issued a critical warning to its community members, 😱
urging caution when encountering links promising unexpected rewards from prominent accounts. Lucie, a team member, highlighted the risks associated with clicking on such links, often linked to hacked accounts, and advised users against connecting their wallets to these websites to avoid potential security breaches.
This warning comes after a series of hacking incidents targeting figures and projects within the Shiba Inu ecosystem. Lucie specifically mentioned an incident involving the Mantra protocol on Shibarium, advising against interacting with Mantra Protocol's X handle for community safety.
The key takeaway from Lucie's warning is the importance of remaining vigilant and skeptical when encountering enticing offers. Shiba Inu users are encouraged to verify sources' legitimacy and avoid suspicious content.
On a positive note, Shib Names are now available for public access, and upcoming developments like wallet mapping and the launch of the D3 Marketplace by D3, a partner of Shiba Inu, promise enhanced functionality and utility within the ecosystem.
