CEX listing, 100M airdrop to Vitalik Buterin, honeypots: Be careful with THE
THE token, a new meme coin, was launched on Oct.14, 2022 as a responce of Vitalik Buterin suggestion. Ethereum’s (ETH) creator was wondering why was this catchy sticker still free.
Неко би требало да направи пројекат под називом „ТХЕ Протоцол“, како би њихови шиљови могли да кажу „Види, тако је поменуо ТХЕ!“ скоро сваки пут када неко било шта каже.

Right after his proposal, a memetic token contract was deployed to Ethereum (ETH). 100 million THE (10% of its supply) was immediately transferred to Vitalik’s address.
In the next two days, the token was pumping like any other meme coin. However, experts from PeckShield alert, unveiled that some contracts associated with THE supply are actually honeypots: users can only inject liquidity to THE protocol, but withdrawals are blocked.

No, Vitalik Buterin doesn’t promote THE
Right now, THE token is being aggressively promoted by eponymous English and Chinese groups on Telegram. The groups only broadcast the statistics of THE purchasing.
Also, there’s a deep fake video spreading in TikTok that demonstrates Vitalik Buterin endorsing THE Protocol and its token. However, Vitalik made no such statements.
By press time, THE Twitter account has over 2,500 followers while THE-themed Telegram groups have 1500-2000 followers each.
