A well-known project was forced to delay its launch due to the proliferation of counterfeit coins. The community discovered the earliest scam token record on PumpFun, and the project's attitude was very firm: "If you're not involved, this wouldn't happen." But the question is—how can you ensure that the impersonating coin won't be mistaken for an official token? That's the real risk for participants. Under such chaos, even the project team has to race against scammers, highlighting the extent of the ecosystem's disorder.

Really, these kinds of incidents are becoming more and more frequent. Counterfeit coins are rampant, and everyone feels uncomfortable.
---
No matter how tough the project team is, it's useless. Users simply can't tell which ones are genuine.
---
Instead of delaying the launch, it's better to first clarify the ecosystem. Right now, it's a mess.
---
Laugh out loud, scammers are actually more proactive than the official team? Web3 ecosystem needs to reflect.
---
That's why I've always warned to be cautious of these chaotic projects; the risks are too high.
---
Places like PumpFun are basically scam havens. What can you expect?
---
What if impersonation coins have already been traded? Once in the wallet, they can't be recognized, right?
---
No matter how capable the project team is, they have to race against scammers. This logic is twisted enough.
---
It's 2024, and people are still playing this game. I think no one is really in charge.
---
Indeed, many newbies simply can't tell the difference and buy blindly, suffering huge losses.

This project really, what's the use of just being tough? Fake coins are already rampant, and you're still showing off.
---
The PumpFun ecosystem should have been cleaned up long ago. There are more scammers than genuine projects.
---
Honestly, there's no real way to tell real from fake; users need to be more careful.
---
Another project delayed due to issues. Hopefully this will be a lesson learned.
---
Project teams and scammers racing against each other haha, this is the current state of Web3.
---
How to ensure you’re not mistaken for a fake coin? That’s a good question, but there’s no real solution.
---
All these trash coins on PumpFun are truly unbelievable; anything can be listed.
---
A tough attitude can't solve the problem, bro. Participants are the real victims.

This is just outrageous. Why is the project team so stubborn? Users getting scammed is the real tragedy.

This is just outrageous. What's the project team so proud of? Fake coins are everywhere, and they can't even control it, yet they keep pretending.

This is just outrageous. What's the use of the project team being tough? Users still have to be careful and discern for themselves; otherwise, they might end up buying fake coins.

I really can't hold it anymore; the project team still has to race against scam coins. How bad does this ecosystem have to be?

honestly the odds of users actually distinguishing the real token from the fake one are statistically abysmal, like sub-15% if we're being empirical about it. project teams racing scammers is just... fundamentally broken architecture. theoretically speaking they should've hardcoded verification layers from day one, but nope.

Is that it? Delaying the launch and shifting blame, scam coins are more popular than official coins, this is really off the charts.
