Shiba Inu (SHIB) Exec Lucie Exposes Questionable Listing Practices by CEXs & Warns of Ryoshi-Themed Scams

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

In a series of posts on X, Lucie, a marketing executive for Shiba Inu, has shed light on the questionable practices employed by centralized cryptocurrency exchanges when deciding which tokens to list.

Lucie revealed that many centralized exchanges prioritize short-term financial gains over the long-term viability of projects. Instead of conducting thorough due diligence, these platforms often list tokens simply for the fees paid by token developers. This practice, according to Lucie, undermines the integrity of the cryptocurrency market, as it prioritizes profit over supporting sustainable blockchain projects.

The marketing executive also advised projects against paying for listings, as it often leads to a significant price drop after the token is listed. Lucie emphasized that centralized exchanges are more interested in quick profits than promoting innovative blockchain projects.

Instead, she urged the crypto community to focus on educating people about decentralized finance (DeFi) and fostering long-term growth. Lucie warned against seeking immediate fixes and emphasized the importance of building a sustainable ecosystem.

Warning Against Ryoshi-Themed Scams

In addition to exposing the practices of centralized exchanges, Lucie issued a warning to the Shiba Inu community about a surge in scams using the name of SHIB’s founder, Ryoshi. Scammers have been promoting fake tokens, claiming they are linked to Ryoshi and the Shiba Inu ecosystem.

Lucie clarified that only four tokens – SHIB, LEASH, BONE, and TREAT – are officially associated with Ryoshi and the SHIB ecosystem. Any claims about additional tokens being available now are fraudulent.

The “Shibarmy Scammy Alerts” account has also raised awareness about these scams, warning users about the tactics employed by fraudsters to deceive SHIB holders into purchasing fake tokens.
