Scammers Whitepaper: https://ikia.io/IKIA_whitepaper01.pdf | Not archived - Waybackmachine seems having an error today, I can't archive the PDF file. Other reliable web archiver that I usually utilize are not capable of archiving a downloadable PDF.

Plagiarized Source:

There are many, some that I caught by random sampling are plagiarizing below sources:

1. https://astoken.co/Whitepaper.pdf

Found a new web capturing service [Ghost archive (https://ghostarchive.org/)] that seems to have no issue with archiving downloadable PDFs: Archived (https://ghostarchive.org/archive/T551x) [it takes a minute to show the result for the first time]
