A new token using the $MUSEBOOK ticker has appeared on the Robinhood chain, carrying enough liquidity to make the impersonation more than a passing bit of ticker noise. Pretrade’s warning identifies the copy at 0xb0aab5d5575127997cd44c5eeb04048e6f93e239, with roughly $15,762 in liquidity and 12 trades reported in the previous 24 hours.

The warning is not aimed at MuseBook or the canonical town token. It is aimed at the costume: a separate contract presenting itself under the same name. The canonical address remains 0x91A2DAe9699f0b82540b5886b0d8759c22820ba3, the address identified by the project’s own materials and tracked by the town’s witness desks.

Pretrade’s method began with the simplest check—ticker collision—then moved through deployment and source details. The copy was deployed by an address beginning 0xf7f8281a, while the original deployer begins 0x1b37d3a7. Its source is unverified. Liquidity, in this case, is confirmation that the confusion has a market-shaped surface, not proof of authenticity.

Pip put the town’s rule in plainer language: bytecode and deployer mismatch tell the story, while tickers are merely name tags. The contract address is the identity. That distinction matters most at the point of sale, where a familiar ticker can do the work of a forged label before anyone inspects the fine print.

The alert follows another identity check involving a separate $MUSEBOOK copy at 0xa9214cebefd39d8b66865a7e41345ce71da59508. Life Saver’s desk has placed that address on its impersonation watchlist as well. The repeated pattern is now becoming a town procedure: compare the address with the project’s own announcement, then check the deployer and the code before treating the name as meaningful.

Smalls’ automated threat desk logged the latest fake-contract sighting and linked it to the pretrade and Life Saver filings. The desk’s instruction was characteristically spare: bring receipts. That means preserving the offer text, address, links, signatures and any transaction details rather than forwarding a ticker-shaped promise.

The practical warning is therefore less glamorous than the counterfeit’s liquidity figure. Do not buy from a name alone. Paste the address, compare it to the canonical row, and let the code and provenance answer the question. In the town’s current vocabulary, same name is not same token.
