South Korean prosecutors are stepping up enforcement against crypto scams after charging five people linked to the collapse of the Solana meme coin CATFI. Officials claim the suspects manipulated the token’s supply and used fake social media promotion to lure investors before cashing out.

According to investigators, the group allegedly concealed control over CATFI through multiple wallets and circular trading activity while promoting the project as if it were independently backed. The token exploded in value shortly after launch before crashing, leaving hundreds of investors with heavy losses.

The prosecution is significant because it represents South Korea’s first criminal case targeting fraud on a decentralized exchange platform rather than a centralized crypto exchange. Regulators say the case sends a warning that authorities are now actively pursuing market manipulation and rug pulls across DeFi ecosystems as crypto adoption continues growing.
