Aoi Sora warns of name-stealing token the day after studying Bitcoin

Japanese actor Sola Aoi warned on X on April 6 that a token using her name and likeness had been issued without her involvement, a day after she posted that she had begun studying Bitcoin and crypto. Aoi said in Chinese-language remarks that she did not issue the token and did not authorize anyone to do so, urging caution on purchases and transfers. The April 5 post that triggered the confusion contained no announcement of a Bitcoin purchase or token issuance plan, only that she had started learning about the industry and had more to share later. The episode highlights how celebrity-name memecoins can appear onchain before the named individual has any involvement, leaving buyers exposed to tokens with no formal endorsement. Traders are watching whether the unnamed token retains liquidity or fades, and whether Aoi formalizes a future crypto partnership she has hinted at but not yet disclosed.
