Monad co-founder Keone Hon has issued a critical warning to users regarding potential phishing scams targeting their official Telegram channel ahead of the upcoming airdrop on October 14, 2025. The alert highlights the urgent need for vigilance, as fraudulent links disguised as Monad’s claim portal could lead users to malicious websites and expose their funds to financial loss. Hon emphasizes the importance of verifying information thoroughly before engaging with any actions or transactions related to the airdrop. Kevin McCordic, head of growth at Monad, echoed this concern. The potential for losses is significant given that MON token pre-market trades suggest a fully diluted valuation exceeding $7 billion. While not yet officially launched, this high value leaves users vulnerable to fraudulent activities if they engage with untrustworthy websites.
