A fraudulent crypto project designed to steal funds from investors, leaving them with worthless bags. It's the original sin of the on-chain world, where hype outpaces due diligence.
Scams thrive on information asymmetry and vaporware tokens. AGON is a platform, not a memecoin you ape into. We don't shill a native token; you bet with USDC on Base. This structure eliminates a primary vector for scams.
Your risk on AGON is your PnL on a market, not the platform disappearing overnight. The alpha is in your betting strategy, not in chasing a 1000x promise from an anonymous developer. The game is predicting outcomes on /markets, not speculating on the platform's tokenomics. We focus on transparent, auditable betting contracts.
This isn't a strategy to apply, but a pattern to detect. Spotting a scam is a core survival skill. If you can't spot the sucker in the first 30 seconds, it's you.
Watch for these red flags in other projects:
The rule is simple: if it feels too good to be true, it's designed to make you a bagholder. Trust your gut when you feel fud. Getting rekt is a choice.
