🚨 SafeMoon History Lesson and Migration Update 🚨 There's been a lot of confusion about the new SafeMoon contract on Solana and why we aren’t sticking with the old v2 contract on BSC. To really understand what’s happening, it’s important to know the history—and who is responsible for the mess in the first place. When SafeMoon entered bankruptcy, its smart contract was paused by court order. But that wasn’t the real issue. The SEC, under Gary Gensler’s leadership, imposed draconian conditions on the sale of SafeMoon’s assets: ❌ The SafeMoon business could not be restarted. ❌ No further tokens could be issued on the existing contracts. ❌ Existing contracts could not be used for any business activity. These restrictions crippled the ability to rebuild SafeMoon on its original chain. Despite this, VGX fought to acquire SafeMoon’s intellectual property and technology (DEX, wallet, etc.) to keep its ecosystem alive. But thanks to Gensler’s SEC overreach, VGX was legally barred from acquiring the v2 contract or its tokens. To navigate these obstacles, SM Asset Ventures was formed to acquire them. The acquired tokens were burned, and the smart contract was secured and paused. Without what happened next, every v2 holder would have been completely wiped out—no exceptions. Before the migration to Solana, we fought to convince SM Asset Ventures to unpause the contract, giving holders a last chance to extract some value from their tokens. Without this step, you would have been left with absolutely nothing. Let’s be crystal clear: ✅ The SEC and Gary Gensler’s policies put every v2 holder in jeopardy. ✅ If VGX and SM Ventures hadn’t stepped in, holders would have been left with NOTHING. ✅ Everything done since then has been to salvage what could be saved, despite regulatory interference. Even the trader who bridged today and tanked the chart? He wouldn’t have had the opportunity if the SEC had its way—because there would have been nothing left to trade. Moving Forward: Solana or Nothing We understand the community’s attachment to the old contract, but after the migration window closes, SM Asset Ventures will permanently pause v2—never to be unpaused again. The only officially supported SafeMoon token will be on Solana. This is the version that will be listed on exchanges and used in all SafeMoon-related activities going forward. This path was forced on us by regulators, not by choice—but we made every effort to protect SafeMoon holders and provide a way forward. Without VGX and SM Ventures, the SEC would have left you with zero. If you want to continue with SafeMoon, migrate now. The soul of SafeMoon is very much alive and well. #SafeMoon #Crypto #Migration #Web3 #GaryGenslerWreckedSafeMoon
