> **Visual Note:** A news article from GlobeNewswire dated August 17, 2026, titled "Beast Industries Reiterates Record Date for Digital Token Initiative," confirms that Beast Industries' (Nasdaq: NYSE Texas: BEAST) digital token initiative will record shareholders on Sep 7, 2026, with the image highlighting this record date. The article supports the accompanying post's claim about a presale for MrBeast's cryptocurrency ($BEAST), lending an appearance of legitimacy to the promotional announcement.

> **Visual Note:** A GlobeNewswire press release from Beast Industries (Nasdaq: BEAST) confirms the record date for its "digital token initiative" as September 7, 2026, noting that shareholders holding at least one whole share of BEAST stock will be eligible to receive tokens and related incentives. The image appears to be used as "evidence" to promote a supposed "$BEAST" presale on an unofficial website, though the release makes no mention of any such presale or token name.

> **Visual Note:** A dashboard displays a token's market stats, showing a price of $0.058633 USD (0.01055 SOL), with liquidity locked at $7.3K, and both FDV and market cap at $8.6K—indicating an extremely early-stage micro-cap token that aligns with the post's promotion of high-multiple memecoin calls like $TRUMP, $ANSEM, $Fartcoin, and others.

The image appears to be a legitimate company announcement that is being misappropriated by the accompanying social media post to promote a fraudulent "MrBeast" $BEAST coin presale.

The post ties his image to a promotion for a new "$BEAST" cryptocurrency presale, invoking his celebrity to lend credibility to the memecoin launch.

Một cú giảm như thế này cho thấy với memecoin, câu chuyện “giảm nhiều rồi thì không thể giảm thêm” thực sự rất nguy hiểm.
