Spot the fakes.
Scammers impersonate every crypto project, and MoonBite is no exception. Here's exactly what MoonBite will and won't do — so you can tell the real thing from a fake in seconds.
MoonBite will never do these things
See any of the following? It's a scam. Full stop.
Mining is the only way to get MBITE
No shortcut, no early investor round, no back-channel allocation. If a path to MBITE isn't mining, it's a scam.
Mine it yourself
Run the MoonBite node and miner on your own hardware. The block reward goes straight to an address you control. No middleman, no signup, no fee to us.
Exchange listing, later on
MBITE isn't listed on any exchange today. When it is, we'll announce it on this site only. We will never break the news through a cold DM or a third-party channel first.
How to know it's really MoonBite
Two sources. Treat everything else as unverified.
This website
The only authoritative MoonBite website is the one you're on right now. Check the URL bar — the correct domain, a valid HTTPS lock. Any other domain is a copy, no matter how good it looks.
The GitHub repository
The real source code and official releases live at github.com/moonbitecoin/MoonBite-Coin. Only download wallet software from the releases page there, and verify the checksums before you run anything.
A checklist that actually helps
Run through these before you act on anything MBITE-related that showed up unsolicited.
Check the URL
Scam sites copy the look but can't copy the domain. Watch for misspellings, extra hyphens, or a swapped TLD (.net, .io, .xyz when the real site uses another).
Guard your seed phrase
Write your seed phrase on paper and keep it offline. Never type it into a website, never paste it in a chat, never photograph it. Anyone who asks for it is stealing your coins.
Download from GitHub only
Wallet binaries come from the GitHub releases page at the canonical URL above — nowhere else. Check the file hash in the release notes before you run anything.
Pressure is a red flag
"Limited time offer," "act now," "only 10 spots left" — urgency is the manipulation. Real software doesn't expire, and real coins have no exclusive access window.
Be careful in communities
Online communities pull in impersonators. Cross-check any account claiming to be MoonBite staff against the GitHub profile. There is no "official team" account on any chat platform.
Stop and look it up
If something feels off, stop. Come back to this page or the GitHub repo and compare. A few minutes of checking beats trying to reverse an on-chain theft that can't be undone.
