In one of the most controversial stories in the world of cryptocurrencies, the industry witnessed an unprecedented fraud: a completely unknown project suddenly appeared, strong marketing, and huge promises, then raised a billion dollars in just 7 hours... before everything disappeared at the eighth hour.
How did it all begin?
The project appeared under the slogan "The Next Blockchain Hurricane," surrounded by a professionally designed website and a supposed team with faces and images stolen from the internet. The project was promoted as a new revolution in the sector, with claims that major investors and huge funds had already entered.
Unprecedented rush
In just a few hours, users interacted—driven by excitement, greed, and fear of missing out—resulting in the project raising a billion dollars. The numbers were shocking even to those who know the market's intricacies.
The critical moment: the disappearance
At the beginning of the eighth hour, something of this magnitude happened that no one expected:
The site has completely disappeared
The social channels have been deleted
The wallets where the funds were collected were closed
And the 'virtual' team disappeared without a trace
That was the shortest and largest rug pull in the history of cryptocurrencies within a single day.
What is the lesson?
This incident is not just a scandal but a harsh reminder that:
Apparent professionalism does not mean credibility
The fake team is easier than you think
Exaggerated marketing often hides suspicious intentions
There is no real project that raises a billion dollars in hours without a technical foundation or known partners
The sector is evolving rapidly, but the scammers evolve faster.
And the only protection is to search, verify, and not rush
