USE CASE 1

Understand how fake cryptocurrency wallet balance displays are constructed so you can recognize and reject fabricated payment evidence

USE CASE 2

Verify any cryptocurrency payment independently by checking the actual transaction on a block explorer rather than trusting a wallet display

So what is it?

This repository claims to be a tool that manipulates the balance display inside cryptocurrency wallets on a local computer, making a wallet show a custom USDT or Bitcoin amount without any real funds moving on the blockchain. According to the README, it targets browser extension wallets like MetaMask, desktop wallets like Exodus, and native blockchain clients, using memory patching or local storage modification to overwrite the balance the wallet displays. The tool is described as capable of showing a chosen USDT amount across ERC20, TRC20, and BEP20 networks, injecting fake transaction history, and persisting the fabricated values even after the wallet restarts. It is distributed as a Windows executable inside a password-protected ZIP file, with the password given in the README. The README repeatedly emphasizes that the tool does not touch the blockchain, does not access private keys, and does not send funds. That framing describes the core purpose: the displayed balance is false, and anyone using this to convince another person they have received a payment would be presenting fabricated evidence. Tools of this type are commonly associated with payment fraud, where a seller is shown a spoofed wallet balance and ships goods believing a payment has been made. The repository offers no source code in the README, only a binary download from the Releases section. The listed topics include terms like fake-balance and crypto-wallet-fake-balance, which align with that use pattern rather than any legitimate testing or educational purpose. Anyone encountering a wallet balance shown via this tool should treat it as unreliable: the only way to verify a real cryptocurrency payment is to check the blockchain directly through a trusted block explorer.
