The ‘Buzz’ Factor

「嗡嗡聲」因素

Solidus’ report pointed out that around 300 tokens allowed creators to mint an uncapped supply. Furthermore, another 60 tokens blocked buyers from reselling them on exchanges. According to the New York-based company specializing in monitoring suspicious crypto transactions,

Solidus 的報告指出，大約 300 個代幣允許創作者鑄造無限量的供應。此外，另外 60 個代幣阻止買家在交易所轉售。據這家總部位於紐約的專門監控可疑加密交易的公司稱，

“Scam token creators feed on hype, promise, and price and volume manipulation.”

“詐騙代幣的創造者以炒作、承諾以及價格和交易量操縱為食。”

As reported recently, the launch of Coinbase’s Base for developers marked the onset of the meme-coin season. Such pump-and-dump crypto assets registered spikes of up to 7,000,000%. Furthermore, freshly created whale wallets have been driving activity on Base. HarryPotterObamaSonic10Inu with the ticker BITCOIN [not to be confused with the original BTC] has been another crypto that managed to find appeal among whales. In fact, this asset is up 182% in August, outshining other meme coins like Dogecoin and Shiba Inu.

根據最近報道，Coinbase 面向開發者的 Base 的推出標誌著迷因幣季節的開始。這種拉高拋售的加密資產的漲幅高達 7,000,000%。此外，新創建的鯨魚錢包一直在推動 Base 上的活動。 HarryPotterObamaSonic10Inu 的股票代碼為 BITCOIN（不要與原始的 BTC 混淆），它是另一種在鯨魚中找到吸引力的加密貨幣。事實上，該資產在 8 月上漲了 182%，超過了狗狗幣和柴犬等其他迷因幣。

Chen Arad, the Co-Founder of Solidus, said that “buzz” is always a factor, and Base naturally generated buzz, which ended up attracting scammers. The report noted that the hype surrounding the Base network was no exception, and as a result, approaching such tokens with caution held the key. Commenting on similar lines, a Coinbase spokesperson said,

Solidus 聯合創始人 Chen Arad 表示，「嗡嗡聲」始終是一個因素，Base 自然會產生嗡嗡聲，最終吸引了騙子。該報告指出，圍繞 Base 網路的炒作也不例外，因此，謹慎對待此類代幣是關鍵。 Coinbase 發言人在評論類似言論時表示：

“We encourage consumers to do their research diligently before participating in any dApp, on Base or any other chain, just as they would on the open internet.”

“我們鼓勵消費者在參與 Base 或任何其他鏈上的任何 dApp 之前認真進行研究，就像他們在開放互聯網上一樣。”
