Metamask ព្រមានអំពីយុទ្ធនាការចាប់ផ្តើមសញ្ញាសម្ងាត់ក្លែងក្លាយ

The popular Ethereum wallet Metamask has warned of a fake $MASK token launch, as reported by the project’s Twitter account on ខែ​មីនា 28.

Metamask និយាយថាមិនមានការបើកដំណើរការសញ្ញាសម្ងាត់ទេ។

Metamask said that widespread rumors suggest that it will carry out an official token snapshot or airdrop on March 31. The project said that these rumors are “not only false but [also] dangerous” as they allow scammers and phishers to target crypto users.

Metamask software developer Dan Finlay, meanwhile, បាននិយាយថា "ក្រុមមនុស្សដែលមិនដឹងថាពួកគេកំពុងនិយាយអំពីអ្វី" ទទួលខុសត្រូវចំពោះការបំភាន់ជុំវិញការទម្លាក់យន្តហោះ។ លោក​បាន​ព្រមាន​ថា អ្នក​បោកប្រាស់ «​ប្រហែល​ជា​នឹង​មាន​អំណាច​នៅ​ថ្ងៃ​នោះ»។

Those rumors cited supposed insider information to suggest that Metamask would snapshot user transactions on March 31 prior to a 2024 airdrop. It is not clear that the initial rumor was circulated with fraudulent intentions, as it did not request transfers to a specific address.

In any case, Metamask does not have a native token and has no immediate plans to launch one, despite all speculation and suggestions to the contrary.

ពាក្យចចាមអារ៉ាមអំពីនិមិត្តសញ្ញា Metamask មិនមែនជារឿងថ្មីទេ។

A Metamask token has been rumored for some time. In fact, the possibility may have been originally spurred by the leader of Metamask’s parent company, ConsenSys.

In November 2021, ConsenSys co-founder and CEO Joseph Lubin seemingly hinted at a token launch by writing on Twitter: “Wen $MASK? Stay tuned.” Later, Decrypt reported in March 2022 that Lubin confirmed that Metamask intended to launch a token. That statement was subsequently picked up by several major sites as evidence for an upcoming launch.

The earlier statement seemingly resulted in at least one actual scam. Hundreds of users saw their funds stolen in December 2021 when attackers hijacked a decentralized exchange to make it appear that a WETH/MASK trading pair existed.

An unrelated Metamask scam involving address poisoning also occurred in January. The wallet, like many others, is also a frequent target for phishing campaigns.
