<p>The continuous growth of deepfake technology poses a significant threat to the cryptocurrency community. Media reports claim that, most recently, Vitalik Buterin, a leading personality in space, became the victim of the evolving technology.&nbsp;</p>
<p>On Feb 6, 2024, the X account of Certik posted a screenshot of the circulating video of Buterin, and the firm also highlighted the name of the source from where the screenshot was taken.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Certik claims that the scamming website is named ‘strnetclaim(dot)cc’ and is believed to be promoting the wallet controlled or handled by the drainer.
