Word is spreading that a particular ICO project pulled the rug, with the team allegedly laundering the stolen funds through cross-chain swaps. This kind of scam remains a persistent threat in the crypto space—investors need to be vigilant about vetting projects before committing capital.

ngl these projects are really outrageous... Every time it's the same old trick, rug pulls with no originality at all.

Another rug pull... This time they are also doing cross-chain money laundering, it's really incredible.

Another rug pull... This circle is really getting more and more outrageous. I need to learn how to identify projects myself.

Another rug pull project? To be honest, from my quantitative model, these types of exit scams are typical "market manipulation signals" during market cycles. I've seen too many in 2017. The team running away with cross-chain swaps to launder money? Haha, this method has long been cracked by on-chain analysts, leaving no trace.
