  • Cuba’s official X account appeared to promote a memecoin but was likely hacked, causing confusion and a token price dump.
  • The account hosted a bizarre X space, with apologies and suspicious shouts about a “million MC,” before deleting posts.
  • Repeated scam attempts led to the account being locked, raising questions about its security.

Cuba’s official government X account briefly appeared to join the memecoin craze with a promotion of the “Official Cuba Coin,” leading many to speculate the country was embracing the trend sparked by Donald Trump’s weekend launch. However, the situation quickly unraveled, revealing a likely hack.

A Scam Unveiled

After the Cuban Ministry of Foreign Affairs posted about the “Official Cuba Coin,” the account announced technical difficulties and began sharing erratic content, including links to scam tokens. The initial promotion caused confusion, but the token’s rapid price dump and out-of-character posts raised red flags.

Suspicious Apologies and Deleted Spaces

The hacked account hosted an eight-minute X space titled “Sorry from $CUBA,” where an unidentified host apologized and denied a rug pull before abruptly shouting, “Here we gooo, come on let’s go, a million MC!” The space, along with other posts, was deleted shortly after.

Account Locked Amid Chaos

The account was eventually locked after repeated scam attempts, including another link to a Solana-based crypto coin. The incident left many questioning how a government account became entangled in such a chaotic memecoin scam.
