Welcome back to ThinkGrowCryptoMedia! Your Cardano-biased, news media outlet for your blockchain-knowledge needs.

There's a rising number of scam tokens popping up on the Cardano network, and it's important to be aware of them. These tokens are crafted to fool you, looking almost identical to the real deal if you're not looking closely.

The key to telling the real tokens apart from the fakes is by checking their Policy IDs. In a world where we often click first and think later, it's wise to keep in mind that if something appears too good to be true, it usually is, and it might end up doing more harm than good.

Stay alert and safe out there. And remember, if you spot something suspicious, don't hesitate to speak up. You can help out by adding the Policy ID of any dodgy tokens to our growing list right here.

Now onto the good stuff!👇

This sketch was made in honor of another Epoch’s End Space, and we have to say: it certainly is deserved, given the commissioner’s actions as of late.
