6. THE 500 ETH-HOLDING RISK BETTING PLATFORM FLEEING - THE FIRST "RUG PULL" PROJECT ON L2 BLAST
User @mooncat2878 reported losing 500 ETH to RiskOnBlast. Below is a comprehensive update on the initial RUG incident.
About a week ago, this user made the decision to invest in numerous opportunities within the @Blast_L2 ecosystem. RiskOnBlast had also formed partnerships with some projects that the user highly respected in the BLAST ecosystem. This seemed like a promising start to him. Following this, he reached out to the team, had discussions, and things seemed positive. Consequently, he decided to invest $12,500 with a Fully Diluted Valuation (FDV) of $625k.
As he continued to research new projects, he noticed that RiskOnBlast was conducting a public sale, as they had previously announced. However, the sale suddenly shifted from a capped sale to an uncapped one, with the message 'we want the people to decide what we are worth'. This change struck him as unusual and seemed like a cash-grab move. Thus, he decided to raise this concern with the team.
The team provided explanations for their actions and the reasons behind them. Essentially, they were aiming to raise approximately $1 million but preferred not to disclose this publicly in their fundraising efforts. This explanation gave him a slightly better understanding of their strategy.
Continuing his research, he discovered that one of the team members had a Pudgy Penguin PFP that belonged to someone else, and that individual had been banned for it. To his understanding, all the teams applying to BLAST were required to have at least one team member KYC-ed (Know Your Customer), although he was uncertain about the strictness of this requirement.
And now, he is trying to get the funds back as good as he can.
