Summary

The 'WallStreetBets' brand has been exploited in at least two distinct crypto fraud incidents: a 2021 Telegram pre-mine scam using a fake 'WallStreetBets – Crypto Pumps' channel that stole over $2.1 million in BNB and ETH, and a 2023 Ethereum meme token (WSB Coin) that surged to a $50 million market cap before insiders allegedly dumped $635,000 worth of tokens within days of launch, collapsing the price by over 90%. Neither token was authorized by Reddit or the r/WallStreetBets subreddit, and ZachXBT publicly identified the alleged perpetrators in the 2023 incident.
