The rebrand to 'Save' (a highly generic English word, per U22) significantly complicates brand-protection monitoring — automated detection of 'save' scam accounts requires disambiguation. No public reports of a major Solend/Save impersonation spike as of 2026-05-17. Social-media monitor has not been built.
