BurnaBoy did well by warning people about the fake memecoin using his name. That’s how real fans end up getting scammed because they trust too quickly. But where I think he went too far is calling cryptocurrency a scam. That’s like saying music is a scam because fake promoters exist.
The truth is, crypto itself is not the problem. The problem is many people jump into it without understanding how it works. Scammers are everywhere, even in music, politics, and business. That doesn’t make those things a scam.
What we really need is education. If people learn the right way to use crypto, they’ll avoid a lot of mistakes. Celebrities like BurnaBoy have a strong voice. Instead of creating fear, they should try to guide their fans with facts.
