CZ Issues 3 Key Scam Warnings: No WeChat, No Meme Coin CA Drops — Trading Alert on Impersonation Risk

According to @cz_binance, he has not used WeChat for years, signaling that any outreach via WeChat claiming to be him is not authentic (source: @cz_binance on X, Dec 10, 2025). According to @cz_binance, he will not directly promote any meme coin contract address (CA), so any token claiming a direct CA drop from him contradicts his stated position (source: @cz_binance on X, Dec 10, 2025). According to @cz_binance, he warned about impersonation by stating he hopes the next compromised account is not his, urging users to stay safe (source: @cz_binance on X, Dec 10, 2025). Based on @cz_binance’s statement, traders should avoid engaging with tokens that cite his WeChat or a supposed direct CA shared by him and should verify announcements only from his official X account before trading (source: @cz_binance on X, Dec 10, 2025).

ENS Alert: 'boldleonidas.eth' Bought for Over $2,000 — Owner Denial Flags Impersonation Risk for ENS (ENS) Traders on Ethereum (ETH)

According to @boldleonidas, the ENS name 'boldleonidas.eth' was purchased for over $2,000 and he stated he does not own it, warning followers in case of a potential scam attempt, source: @boldleonidas on X (Aug 18, 2025). This scenario highlights impersonation risk in the ENS market where control of a name can be misused to solicit funds or communications, source: Ethereum Name Service documentation. Traders should verify name ownership, linked addresses, and signed messages via the official ENS app or on-chain records before any transfers or OTC dealings involving ENS names or the ENS token, source: Ethereum Name Service documentation and Ethereum.org security guidelines. ENS names are transferable NFTs on Ethereum, meaning ownership confirms control of the name but not the identity behind it, source: Ethereum Name Service documentation.
