RED FLAG ALERT - aZen

Image
  Welcome to Pincto's first Red Flag Alert.  Congratulations to aZen! aZen recently launched their TGE on May 8th, 2025.  The lead-up included very little information and the time of listing was only announced less than a day before launch. No information was given to users about airdrop allocation. The only instructions given were to submit their UID and ETH receiving addresses in the aZen Hub app for a few different exchanges, but nothing else. When the token launched, many users began complaining about a number of issues, primarily not being able to withdraw from the aZen Hub app, as well as some not receiving anything whatsoever. I was one of those who didn't receive anything at all. So I pressed to find out why. A day later, a moderator finally replied to my question. It appears as though, despite running their DePIN Lite application for roughly 9 months, I was ineligible because I had not done any Twitter tasks in the last 30 days. Well, that's a new one. I say ...

ROAM by MetaBlox - Earn Crypto with WiFi

-
Image
  ROAM is a project created by MetaBlox Labs where you add wifi hotspots wherever you go. By contributing and adding to the network, you help build the foundation for ROAM OpenRoaming, which essentially automatically connects your phone to any OpenRoaming hotspot, creating seamless roaming between networks without relying on cellular services. The ROAM token will be launched on Solana in early 2025, so there is still time to get in on the initial reward airdrop before their TGE (token generation event). Users earn points by adding wifi access points and check-ins on wifi hotspots. They also offer optional paid hardware, such as the ROAM Ranier Max60 wifi router which earns you additional points per day, plus any check-ins received (ie. if you run a cafe, you can install it there and get check-ins). Just download the app and start adding wifi and checking in. Join ROAM by MetaBlox - use code 78921041 for bonus points on sign-up
