According to BlockBeats, on January 13, Uniswap founder Hayden Adams commented on the NYC token incident involving former New York City Mayor Eric Adams, strongly criticizing celebrities and politicians for using blockchain technology to perpetrate scams. Adams highlighted that celebrities can legitimately profit from blockchain by issuing tokens while maintaining liquidity, providing real value to holders, and ensuring project transparency.
He emphasized that blockchain is an "unprecedentedly powerful tool for collaboration, monetization, and value distribution," currently utilized by millions worldwide. However, he noted that celebrities often exploit it for short-sighted fraudulent activities. Adams believes that by honestly managing blockchain projects, celebrities can not only achieve greater profits but also safeguard their reputations and avoid legal issues.
