Meta Pool: Fake stNEAR Contract Discovered, Users Advised to Verify Official Address

Foresight News reports that the liquid staking protocol Meta Pool has issued a security warning, stating that a fake stNEAR contract has been discovered attempting to impersonate its official staking pool and token. This contract is not associated with Meta Pool or any official NEAR liquid staking providers. Meta Pool stated that no significant financial losses have been identified so far, but the team has observed suspicious activities such as testing interactions via Intents by related parties. Users are advised to interact only with officially verified contracts and to verify contract addresses before staking or exchanging, rather than relying solely on token names or symbols to determine authenticity. The team will continue to monitor the situation closely.
