Yesterday, the XRP community received a significant warning from prominent XRPL developer Wietse Wind. The alert concerns a fraudulent token named “Xaman.”
Xaman as a Fake Token and Its Risks
Xaman is a non-custodial client (wallet) for the XRP Ledger, enabling users to interact with the ledger and third-party tools. Wind emphasized on Twitter yesterday that no official Xaman token exists nor will it ever be: “There is no Xaman token, there will never be a Xaman token. We are not engaging in meme shitcoin releases.”
Wind, founder of the Xaman Wallet, formerly known as Xumm, clarified that neither he nor his team is associated with the so-called Xaman token currently trading on the First Ledger platform. “We did not issue this token,” Wind stated.
Fake Meme Coin Xaman and User Alert
Wind referred to the “Xaman” token as a “fake meme scam coin” and urged users to avoid any interaction with this token to protect themselves from potential financial losses.
XRP Community Warned to Stay Vigilant
Fraudulent tokens and scam projects pose a growing risk to crypto communities, and with the expanding XRP ecosystem, Wind’s warning highlights the need for increased caution. Community members are advised to verify information through official channels to help avoid scams.
New Tokens in XRPL and Record Issuances
The issuance of new tokens on the XRPL is growing, which brings additional risks. This month, First Ledger, a platform enabling the trading and tracking of tokens on the XRP Ledger, reached a new all-time high in daily issued tokens, surpassing even the record set in 2021.
Community Warnings and Official Channels
In light of these developments, XRPL dUNL validator and xrpcafe co-founder Vet issued a warning to XRP community members to stay cautious: “There are tons of impersonators out there. I will never issue a meme coin. I will never send you a DM. Stay alert.” Impersonation is common, which is why the official account of the Xaman wallet (formerly Xumm) warns against scammers posing as Xumm support or using fake NFT projects to obtain personal information from victims.
