Odaily Planet Daily News As Chinese artificial intelligence company DeepSeek becomes popular, malicious "DeepSeek" crypto tokens have surged in the past 24 hours.
According to data from security company BlockAid, as of January 27, at least 75 related scam tokens have been created, three times more than the previous day. This is exactly the same as the surge in fake tokens after US President Trump released Meme coin on January 18.
According to BlockAid research analyst Oz Tamir, scammers have set up a DApp that imitates the DeepSeek website, which has a "connect wallet" button that may steal user wallet funds after clicking it. (Cointelegraph)
