1/ One of the lesser known figures in the space is Darkpool Liquidity a market maker (MM)

After reviewing the pitch deck there were a number of services that are straight market manipulation and not standard at ALL by MMs in the space

They play a role in a lot of the cash grabs
2/ To summarize the pic above:

-offers washtrading to artifically boost volume

-frontrunning and selling assets w/o affecting the market price

-spoofing

Well the next question is who even uses this MM?
3/ Well mostly Polkastarter projects use this MM as well as a number of other launchpads on here

One thing a lot of these projects have in common is large unlocks at TGE, vesting for 6 months or less, & a huge % of token supply to the seed/private round & advisors (20-30%+)
4/ After speaking with a few people well versed in the MM space they said it was very surprising this verbiage would be used so openly in a pitch deck

The rest seems to be almost copied from some where since it’s very generic
5/If you have done 50+ projects you more than likely should have $5m+ in AUM

Unless you’re not the main MM or just are a bad negotiator
6/ It is pretty clear what is being done here… please stay folks and do proper DD before putting your $$$ into projects

Website:
darkpool.ventures

Rest of deck (left out contact info slide for privacy):
Our buddy from Moonrock sure seems satisfied… I wonder why that might that be?
Update: X21 & the portfolio removed from the website since I posted
They deleted a bunch of slides and try to claim it’s old. When multiple slides talk about 2021 projects lmao

1/ It appears @moneywithcarter has been let go from Woo after allegedly using internal information to produce content for his paid group called “The Lynnhaven Group”

Here are pics telling his group to buy right before the Series A announcement. ImageImageImage
2/ Here’s him dumping + ironic tweet ImageImage
3/ Since then everyone has been kicked from the Telegram group and it was changed to closed ImageImage

Congrats on the world record for most VCs in a round (84)

“We add value”
The project is Solchicks btw and it is oddly reminiscent of PMON…

Here’s the pitch deck for laughs

I think Moonwhale backed too many scams Image

Another influencer you can avoid is @Bullrun_Gravano who is trying to SWindle you out of all your money with undisclosed shills

What to look out for:

TGE is always 15-20% + 3-6 months of vesting + 20-30% of token supply goes to VCs + almost nothing for the public

= Dump fest ImageImageImageImage
“But ZachXBT he just shilled an IDO that hasn’t dumped yet”

>visit tokenomics for unlock schedule

>typically after a few weeks is when the magic happens depending on the schedule (P2E one’s most common atm)

>your fav IDO influencer is not really bullish

>shills pay bills

The only transparency I’ve found after 15 min on your profile is clearly shilling the upmost trash (most likely undisclosed)

Your bio is a joke right… right?

Notice the people I call out never actually defend their actions but instead try to make me look bad

Until i did my first thread (Scott Melker) in late May I had roughly 1000 followers with pretty much zero CT presence
Back in April I thought John was a legit trader as friends and other people interacted with him regularly

BSC was the hot L1 back then (now AVAX) so I made a reply to try and get him to join a friends alpha hunting group (track wallets/new contracts) ImageImageImage
Any legit trader will tell you to make a small group w/ friends bc the best way to succeed in this market is to combine your talents with others

There’s simply too much going on in the space otherwise

My name is Trader SZ and I shill undisclosed!

>Does TA on IDO projects with awful tokenomics

Doesn’t matter how good of trader you are… still result to exploiting people and laughing it off ImageImageImageImage
Search master venture or moonrock IDO projects and you’ll see he “coincidentally” tweeted about them.
Wait to see his shill buddies in the replies!
