❗ WATCH OUT 👎 SCAMS & WORST Crypto's for 2023
Hi Traders, Investors and Speculators of Charts📈📉
Many of these projects might come as a shock and be disappointing.
As the markets evolved and crypto regulation has taken a more prominent stance; scammers have had to become smarter. The latest trend seems to be a rug pull and then just let the rest of the project's liquidity bleed out. In other words, remain borderline active as they drain more and more funds over a longer time.
Hundreds if not thousands of new cryptocurrencies launch monthly. All with big promises of use case, flashing tech and a stock-standard wide mouthed YouTube guy telling you how high it will moon. With these new tokens and coins also comes many initial coin offerings (ICOs) that are often scams. The demand for these have grown, even despite the fact that many people get rugpulled. This mostly unregulated market makes for a perfect place to scam innocent people out of their money, with little consequences to the thieves. When it comes to cryptocurrencies, one of the biggest challenges for investors is not getting caught up in the hype. Digital currencies have quickly risen to prominence in the portfolios of many retail and institutional investors. At the same time, people are still shocked when something like LUNAUSDT / TERRA happens.
📛 C+CHARGE / CCHG USDT 📛
Initially, the fundamentals sounded noble. But after some research, most members of the team are unverified and there has been no real project activity since late 2022. Apart from this, a coin that loses near 100% is ALWAYS a bad sign and indicates a rugpull, more than anything else.
📛 LUNC As seen on the chart / Terra Classic 📛
A noble rescue at first... TerraClassic community continues to create social media buzz based on the idea that brokerages listing LUNC will implement a burn tax that'll reduce the max supply of close to 6.9 trillion tokens. But even burning billions of coins won't have an impact with a max token supply this large.
The bigger problem is that TerraClassicUSD has de-pegged and its native coin Terra Classic no longer serves any purpose. With all blockchain work now revolving around the new Terra, Terra Classic and TerraClassicUSD are shell investments, with nothing to back their value.
📛 FTT / FTX Token📛
Why Kukcoin hasn't delisted this is beyond me... Te infamous token of the Sam Bankman Fried saga, more on it here:
📛BURGER / BURGER COIN 📛
... REALLY ?
📛 PIZZA 📛
AGAIN, really...
📛 Bitcoin Gold / BTGUSDT 📛
Bitcoin blockchain underwent a fork in 2017 called BTG. Although the fork was meant to produce a more decentralized form of Bitcoin, it has not been successful. BTG was created to address the issue of mining centralization in Bitcoin, but it has not been able to achieve its goal due to the emergence of specialized mining hardware.
Just DON'T. DON'T DO IT. Buy the real thing instead.
📛 PITBULL / PIT 📛
I'm letting the dogs out on this one.. That decimal is basically falling off my screen.
📛 BLUR / BLURUSDT 📛

💭All the above said. Let's discuss a few ways to navigate this wild west market:
- Research the team. Perhaps the single most important success factor for any ICO or cryptocurrency is the developers and administrative team behind the project. Check out their Twitter and Reddit. The cryptocurrency space is dominated by major names, with superstar developers like Ethereum ETHUSDT founder Vitalik Buterin capable of making or breaking new projects simply by having their names listed on a development team. For that reason, it's increasingly common for scammers to invent fake founders and biographies for their projects.
- Check the whitepaper. The whitepaper should lay out the background, goals, strategy, concerns, and timeline for implementation for any blockchain-related project. Whitepapers can be incredibly revealing: companies that have a flashy website may reveal they lack a fundamentally sound concept. On the other hand, a company with a website containing spelling errors may have a whitepaper that indicates a rock-solid concept and a carefully conceived implementation plan.
- It it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. The idea of getting rich quick on an investment in a hot new project sure is tempting. Keep an eye out as you look for new investment opportunities in the ICO and cryptocurrency spaces. Spend time scrutinizing every detail, and assume that the absence of a piece of crucial information may be an attempt to hide an unsound model or concept. Look for outside sources to verify the legitimacy of any project before making an investment.
