Going to
@TOKEN2049 Singapore? 5 quick tips to stay safe from scams and save money.
1. At TOKEN2049 2023, a group of attendees were charged S-$100 for a 3 km taxi ride from the Sands Expo & Convention Centre to a Chinatown hotel. So keep the conversation clean and check twice what's the price from the ride-sharing app.
2. Don’t assume visa-free entry, check Singapore’s visa requirements for your country well in advance. Avoid bringing prohibited items like vapes, which can result in fines or confiscation. Vapes and e-cigarettes, banned in Singapore, have also caused issues if brought unknowingly.
3. Some sponsors at past editions were flagged for credibility issues. For example, JPEX was a platinum sponsor in TOKEN2049 Singapore 2023; afterwards there were many complaints, regulatory attention, and questions about its legitimacy.
Projects offering “too good to be true” returns often pop up around such events, which can be scams.
4. If a project promises huge ROI in very short time or promises guaranteed profits, that’s a red flag.
Don’t share sensitive crypto wallet info; don’t click suspicious QR codes. Validate sponsors / projects before interacting or investing.
5. With over 25,000 attendees, hotel demand around Marina Bay Sands spikes during TOKEN2049, leading to inflated prices or scams via fake booking sites. Some attendees in 2024 reported issues with third-party booking platforms that failed to secure reservations or charged hidden fees. Singapore’s high accommodation costs (e.g. Carlton City Hotel or YOTEL Orchard Road) also surprised unprepared travelers. So book hotels early through trusted platforms.
