Following据一位发言人向CoinDesk证实，Circle在圣诞前夕发布的新闻稿声称该公司推出了一个新的代币化金属交易平台，但该新闻稿是捏造的，该发言人还证实，该公告完全是虚假的。
● Circle否认了有关推出代币化黄金和白银兑换平台的说法。
● 与虚假发布相关的GLDC、SILC或CIRM代币不存在链上证明。
● 诈骗网站诱导用户连接钱包，引发用户安全担忧。
Circle否认代币化交易(来源：X)
这份误导性新闻稿推广了一项名为CircleMetals的服务，声称该服务提供USDC与代表黄金(GLDC)和白银(SILC)的代币之间全天候兑换。这些说法迅速在加密货币领域传播开来，随后被该公司否认。
一场模仿官方品牌形象的虚假发布会
这份伪造的新闻稿于12月24日散布，这段时间正值许多美国公司人手有限、响应速度较慢之际，攻击者往往会利用这一漏洞。该文件复制了Circle公司的品牌标识，甚至捏造了首席执行官杰里米·阿莱尔等高管的言论。
发言人表示，新闻稿中提及的所有声明、产品或平台均不属实。该公告引导用户访问一个网站，诱导用户连接钱包，并声称可获得“1.25%的CIRM奖励”。
CoinDesk指出，主流数据追踪器中均未发现名为CIRM的代币，GLDC或SILC也未出现在任何已验证的列表中。尽管Circle已确认此次发行为欺诈行为，但截至发稿时，相关网站仍可访问。
没有链上代币化金属或流动性的证据
独立区块链搜索结果显示，GLDC、SILC和CIRM均未持有任何代币合约，这与新闻稿中声称的与COMEX挂钩的流动性和无缝互换功能相悖。合法的代币化商品，尤其是与受监管金属市场挂钩的商品，通常需要可验证的托管、监管文件和透明的智能合约部署。然而，这些要素均未出现。
此外，Circle的官方沟通渠道，包括其新闻中心和企业社交媒体账号，均未提及代币化金属计划。业内分析师指出，缺乏链上部署和信息披露直接表明该发行从未合法进行过。
负责发布该新闻稿的公关信息发布平台ChainWire在被问及此事时拒绝置评，这使得人们对这条捏造的公告是如何通过分发流程传播的疑问仍然没有得到解答。
虚假公告如何在加密货币媒体中传播?
The structure of this press release is very similar to that of genuine official announcements. As a result, it can spread quickly among smaller cryptocurrency news sources and automated aggregating systems. Since many market participants rely on jointly disseminated alert information for rapid reporting, false announcements can gain attention before they can be verified.
This phenomenon is particularly common during holidays, when regulatory oversight is reduced, allowing malicious actors to exploit loopholes in the system. Security analysts say that embedding wallet connection prompts on websites is a common tactic used in cryptocurrency phishing attacks. By tricking users into connecting their wallets to unverified interfaces, fraudsters can trigger malicious smart contracts, allowing them to steal users’ assets.
Despite its widespread circulation, there is no evidence of any effective exchange mechanism, no recorded transactions, and no signs of any financial institutions being involved in what is called a “metallic-backed token system”.
Industry warning: Always verify before cooperating with
This incident further demonstrates how false announcements using well-known brands like Circle to deceive users are all too common. Industry experts warn that the rapid dissemination of information about cryptocurrencies, combined with the technical complexity of token systems, makes false information seem convincing at first glance.
However, Circle’s quick denial highlights the need for users, journalists, and investors to verify product release information directly through the company’s own channels, rather than relying on third-party public relations materials. Analysts point out that announcements that lack proper verification can distort market sentiment and even result in direct financial losses for users.
Security experts urge users to avoid connecting their cryptocurrency wallets to unverified platforms. Even a single interaction with malicious websites could lead to irreversible transactions.
