🛑 PEPE SHADOW LABS ($PEPESHADOW) - DELISTED/SCAMMED

 

  • cosystem / Network: BASE LAYER-2 (ETHEREUM SCALING)
  • The Post-Mortem (What Happened): The token launched with massive artificial hype, utilizing coordinated bot accounts on X to simulate institutional backing. Within 12 hours of deployment, the developer executed a sudden Liquidity Pull. The team hardcoded an unverified router address into the deployment contract, allowing them to quietly un-lock and drain the entire $450,000 ETH liquidity pool via Uniswap, leaving retail buyers holding zero-value tokens.
  • The Fatal Red Flag: The developer claimed the liquidity was permanently locked via a third-party locker, but the actual on-chain transaction lock receipt was never verified on BaseScan.
  • How to Avoid This Next Time:
    • Analyze Liquidity Locks: Never trust a developer’s graphical screenshot or a text claim on Telegram.
    • Verify Contracts: Paste the contract address directly into tools like DEXscreener or GoPlus Security to manually check the "Liquidity Locked" status and ensure the liquidity pool provider tokens are sent to a known burn address (like 0x000...dead).
