BlockBeats News, January 27 — Peter Steinberger, founder of ClawdBot (now Moltbot), posted on social media:
“Please stop disturbing me through private messages or mention features, stop harassing me as an investor in the crypto space. I will never issue any tokens. Any project that lists me as a token owner or affiliate is a scam. I will also not accept any form of partnership fees. Your actions are severely damaging the reputation and development of the project. Please stay rational and work together to maintain a healthy industry environment.”
Peter also stated that the project was originally named ClawdBot but had to change its name due to trademark issues. However, he messed up the renaming on GitHub, and the new name on X has been registered by crypto speculators. He is currently seeking help to recover the hijacked account.
