Save the Kids Token
Summary
Save the Kids ($KIDS) was a BEP-20 token launched on June 5, 2021, on Binance Smart Chain and traded on PancakeSwap, marketed as a charity token that would donate 1% of transaction fees to children's causes. The token collapsed approximately 70% within hours of launch following coordinated selling by pre-sale insiders, including FaZe Clan members who had promoted it to their predominantly teenage audiences. YouTuber-investigator Stephen 'Coffeezilla' Findeisen subsequently established through on-chain analysis and Discord evidence that the token's anti-whale protection had been secretly modified before launch to enable rapid insider dumps, and that FaZe Clan member Frazier 'Kay' Khattri and YouTube personality Sam Pepper were among the primary architects of the scheme.
