Regarding the recent hot tokens in the BSC ecosystem, there is a phenomenon worth warning about. Some projects are claiming to be related to VanEck's upcoming BNB spot ETF and have issued imitation tokens in an attempt to ride the hype. These "shell tokens" often rely on major events like VanEck and CZ's official statements to create expectations and attract trend-following retail investors.



From a technical perspective, whenever such heavyweight ecosystem positive news is released, it tends to trigger a surge of sentiment across the entire chain. The progress of the BNB ETF is indeed a highlight, and each subsequent statement from CZ and the official team could become a trigger for a new round of speculation. This provides opportunities for certain speculative players to manipulate the market—by using highly similar token names and narratives to quickly siphon retail funds.

It is recommended that everyone verify the background and genuine purpose of projects when participating in BSC hotspots, and not be fooled by titles like "ETF anticipation." True ecosystem benefits should be reflected in the performance of mainstream tokens, rather than in various derivative products and chaos. Market enthusiasm is a double-edged sword; opportunities often come with risks.

It's the same old trick. Every time there's a major event, a bunch of scam coins jump on the bandwagon. It's really annoying. The real positive news should boost mainstream coins, not these shell tokens and chaos. The ETF expectations are indeed easy to be exploited by quick traders; we need to be more cautious. When CZ speaks, the market goes crazy, indicating that most people are just following the trend. Recently, BSC has been really chaotic, with a bunch of imitation projects causing trouble everywhere. Instead of chasing these derivatives, it's more reliable to focus on the actual movement of BNB itself. That's why on-chain data analysis is necessary—to identify fake projects at a glance.

Once again, it's the same trick—using ETF hype to scam investors, really ruthless.

Another new trick to cut leeks, I was wondering why there are so many "BNB ETF" small players lately. These guys really know how to ride the wave; with just one word from CZ, they can create ten tokens. Retail investors really need to wake up; don't keep being fooled by these kinds of expectations gaps. It's really uncomfortable to watch; instead of mainstream coins rising, a bunch of altcoins are popping up out of nowhere.
