Shiba Inu (SHIB) has warned its investors not to be fooled by the smart contract address listed by CoinMarketCap recently.
Based on Shiba Inu’s official tweet on January 14, it is understood there are three fake smart contract addresses, completely invalid for SHIB addresses and safe to use.

The addresses include Binance Smart Chain (BEP20), Solana, and Terra.
It is understood that if the investor continues to invest using that address, there is a risk that has to be borne: the investment in SHIB can disappear immediately.
Worse, CoinMarketCap refused to communicate with the SHIB team regarding the update and was seen to let the listing affect the name of the ecosystem.
Meanwhile, on behalf of CoinMarketCap itself, they admitted that they did list the three addresses. But, the alama-address is not as dangerous as claimed.
Instead the address is for wrapped tokens: "This step aims to streamline the user experience and facilitate cross -chain transactions."
Please note that the non-ETH contract addresses on this page @shibtoken are wormhole addresses, which are designed to facilitate cross-chain transactions of wrapped versions of this assethttps: //t.co/IhbNBJkwnf

At the time of writing, SHIB is trading at $ 0.00002941, down over 3% in 24 hours.
