1/ Welcome to the next episode of marketers shilling IDOs that you should avoid.

This time featuring the team at Yellowblock:

2/ Want to live a extravagant lifestyle and flex on your audience?

See how you can as well below!

*perfectly sells the top*
3/ Case 1: $POLK In my other threads we already know Moonrock & friends sell instantly.

Let’s see who actually pushes this out on Twitter.
4/ Case 2: $PMON This was also pushed out by Moonrock and shilled hard to trick newbies.
5/ Case 3: $ROOM

Another widely shilled IDO by CT influencers that dumped 96.7%.
6/ Case 4: $MATTER

This project suddenly changed it’s vesting schedule because of private sale investors repeatedly dumping . Guess who was quick to claim their tokens after the change?
7/ No tweets from them about $MATTER or any other of these projects in months even though they were so “bullish” on them.

You’d think as private sale investors they’d aim to support the project longterm.
8/ Case 5: Might I add $ERN to the mix. Down 90% since ATH shortly after the IDO.
9/ Case 6: Last but not least $XED, another Moonrock project that dumped very early on.
10/ This is another classic example of marketers pretending to trade who will shill anything available to them.

We all remember the engagement on Twitter during the first couple months of 2021. Imagine being a newbie seeing the tweets.

None of these tweets gave any disclosure.

1/ Time to share how SCALE, NTD, TPU, & OPSEC projects were all tied to the same person Zopp0 to farm naive traders using numerous influencers shown in leaked messages. Image
Image
2/ While paying others to be the face of OPSEC behind the scenes he was involved with key decisions as the owner in private Telegram chats.

Here is him talking about the lack of technical research.

I then confronted him over DM about this in March 2024 which he downplayed.

Then in a leaked private chat here is him chatting about me obtaining this screenshot.Image

Image
Image
3/ Zopp0 and his friend SZB discuss how they messed up bundling for NTD/TPU and worry it will trace back to them.

No posts have been made from @NTensorDynamics @tensorspace_ai since April. Image

1/ Recently a team reached out to me for assistance after $1.3M was stolen from the treasury after malicious code had been pushed.

Unbeknownst to the team they had hired multiple DPRK IT workers as devs who were using fake identities.

I then uncovered 25+ crypto projects with related devs that have been active since June 2024.Image
Image
2/ The laundering path for the incident can be described as:

1) Transfer $1.3M to theft address
2) Bridge $1.3M from Solana to Etheruem via deBridge
3) Deposit 50.2 ETH to Tornado
4) Transfer 16.5 ETH to two exchanges
