What is Malone meme?
Remember the 20-year old Singaporean teen arrested in the U.S. over a $230 million Bitcoin (BTC) scam? Malone Lam is his name.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation arrested Lam along with Jeandiel Serrano, 21, for fraud and money laundering after blockchain sleuth ZachXBT exposed them as the masterminds behind the $230 million crypto theft scheme. A third individual indicted in the swindle, Veer Chetal, had not been arrested at the time.
Malone is a token created on Sept. 24 as a meme based on the Malone Lam story. Many traders have jumped into the trade for quick gains, with community commentary including a desire to push its market cap to the $230 million value that Lam is accused of stealing.
Also notably, some buyers say they are aping in not because they support the fraud, but because Malone Lam is “literally a meme.”
