What happened

Many users noticed that the project token's rebasing function was always negative. As a result, they were losing tokens in which they had invested. The project also made use of the mint function, which was managed via an EOA wallet:

Tx 0x365a…e100

Another warning flag is a proxy contract. The owner sold a large number of tokens at this transaction:

Tx 0x16a0…0e9f

After that, the team began to justify themselves on the project's Twitter account.
