ChainThink reports that on August 1, BNB Chain stated on X that the wallet address previously used to generate tokens for video tutorials was created by a former employee who has since left the company.
BNB Chain stated that the former employee retained unauthorized access to the relevant mnemonic phrase after leaving and used it to generate new private keys; the official team learned that the same address was recently used independently to deploy a new meme token.
BNB Chain emphasizes that it did not create, authorize, promote, or participate in the issuance of this token, and has no control over the related token or wallet addresses. This token is unaffiliated with BNB Chain and is not officially endorsed.
BNB Chain has taken legal action against the former employee and is cooperating with relevant authorities.
