Cardi B\u2019s official X (formerly Twitter) account promoted a meme token called WAP, raising concerns about the legitimacy of the token. Blockchain security firm PeckShield flagged the post, suspecting that her account may have been compromised. The WAP token appears to be inspired by Cardi B\u2019s song of the same name, and its launch coincided with the launch of an official website and username X.<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The situation gained attention after Iggy Azalea, who recently launched her own token called MOTHER, claimed that WAP was a scam. Despite the usual swift response to celebrity account hacks, the WAP token launch post remained on Cardi B\u2019s account for several hours, with an unrelated post featuring her image following the token\u2019s launch.<\/div>\n

As of now, the market value of the WAP token is reported as $21.6 million, according to Dexscreener. However, investors are advised to approach the token with caution given its security concerns.<\/p>\n
