Aerodrome scandal fermented, trust in the crypto world collapsed in just an instant?

Aerodrome scandal! Can we still trust the crypto world?

Folks, at the beginning of the year, the crypto world has given everyone a big "surprise"! On January 29th, Aerodrome, the DEX protocol in the Base ecosystem, announced something that was like a bomb, flipping the whole community upside down.

Trading abnormal! Internal monitoring has triggered an alarm

It is said that when the VVV token was issued, the transaction data on the blockchain was monitored by Aerodrome's internal monitoring system as usual. This monitoring system is like a security guard on duty 24 hours a day in the community, always watching every "in and out personnel", that is, every transaction. As a result, before and after the release of VVV, the "behavior" of a small number of transactions was particularly strange in less than 30 minutes.

These transactions are so precise in terms of timing and the changes in amount are also unreasonable. It's like a few mischievous troublemakers suddenly appearing among a group of well-behaved students and catching the attention of the monitoring system, the 'teacher'. When the team at Aerodrome saw this, they knew it was serious and immediately launched an investigation, just like a teacher discovering a student cheating, they have to get to the bottom of it.

 Suspension at full speed! Team shake-up, users feel cold

The speed of the investigation is astonishing. Just three hours after the release of VVV token, two significant contributors to the project were suspended. These two contributors are like key employees in the company, and everyone usually considers their contribution to the project's development as important. But now, due to the suspicion of insider trading, they have become the target of public criticism.
