Core Viewpoint - Multiple regions in China, including Beijing, Shenzhen, Fujian, and Suzhou, have issued warnings about the risks of illegal fundraising activities disguised as "stablecoins" and other digital assets [1][2]. Group 1: Illegal Fundraising Risks - Authorities have noted that certain illegal organizations are exploiting the public's lack of understanding of financial concepts by promoting "financial innovation" and "digital assets" to attract investments [1]. - These activities are characterized by a lack of legal qualifications, as the involved entities have not received approval from the State Council's financial management departments to solicit public deposits or issue securities [1]. - Common tactics include false promises of guaranteed returns and high fixed income, which prey on the public's desire for high yields [1]. Group 2: Legal Status and Public Awareness - The issuance and promotion of so-called "virtual currencies," "virtual assets," and "digital assets" for public fundraising are illegal activities, and any economic benefits derived from illegal fundraising are prohibited [2]. - Virtual currencies do not hold the same legal status as fiat currencies, and activities related to them are classified as illegal financial activities [2]. - Public awareness campaigns emphasize that promises of "capital preservation and high returns" are indicative of financial fraud, urging individuals to adopt rational investment perspectives and avoid illegal token offerings and unapproved digital asset projects [2].
