1/ Now for a special edition of the Top 10 worst crypto VCs:

1) @moonwhalebv
2) @MoonrockCapital
3) @X21_Digital
4) @Momentum_6
5) @master_ventures
6) @dci_crypto
7) @Morningstar_vc
8) @blocksync_vc
9) @Magnus_fund
10) @bantercap
2/ Why these?

-Well they specifically primarily back cash grabs. Some even backed straight up scams.

What makes a cash grab?

-little to no vesting, launchpads, vaporware

Consistency is key!
3/ Moonwhale (deleted twitter)
4/ Moonrock Capital
5/ X21 Digital

No thread but portfolio consists of launchpads, P2E vaporware, and projects with little to no vesting

See here:
x21digital.com
6/ Momentum 6

Founder is advisor to 10+ cash grabs, backed many launchpads/vapor ware
7/ Master Ventures

No thread but portfolio consists of launchpads, P2E vaporware, and projects with little to no vesting, they do sometimes invest in legit projects (never lead investor then)

Lead a lot of the influencer undisclosed marketing
8/ DCI

No thread but portfolio consists of launchpads, P2E vaporware, and projects with little to no vesting

dutchcryptoinvestors.com/#portfolio
9/ Morningstar

Connected to a lot of the YT’er shilling. Co-incubated projects with Moonrock (PMON)

No thread but portfolio consists of launchpads, P2E vaporware, and projects with little to no vesting, they do sometimes invest in legit projects (never lead investor then)
10/ Blocksync (Deleted twitter)
11/ Magnus Fund

No thread but portfolio consists of launchpads, P2E vaporware, and projects with little to no vesting

magnuscapital.com/portfolio
12/ Banter Capital

VC arm for Crypto Banter (Cardstarter/Starlaunch), shills lowcaps, launchpads, and vaporware as gems

13/ I would not express too much concern unless they’re leading the round or are all in one project together

Just know it will probably be a dump fest

Always check the tokenomics/vesting schedule

1/ Here’s an interesting one. A short story about how @lemiscate (angel investor) dumped all of his XDEFI immediately at launch for a $418k profit on his public ENS.
2/ On 3/24/21 XDEFI announced they concluded their $1.2m seed round. Among those was @lemiscate

Tokenomics wise seed round participants received 25% at TGE (Token Generation Event) with the rest vested linearly over a 3 yr period.
3/ XDEFI trading went live after their IDO on 11/18.

From aavechan.ens we see he received 240k XDEFI on 11/18 (25% on TGE) so during the seed round we see he bought 960k XDEFI tokens for $25.9k ($0.027/token)

Who remembers when the Genesis Shards IDO was marketed all over CT $GS ? Image
Here’s the tokenomics for the project if you’re wondering why the chart might look like that

Hardly any lockup for the seed, strategic, & private round

Even the team has token unlocks beginning after month three ImageImageImage
Search “$GS IDO” on Twitter to see who shilled this one undisclosed

Sometimes you’ll see replies to a deleted tweet. Just go to archive.org and copy paste the link

This is a great way to check other projects too if someone’s tweets do not seem organic

1/ Here’s a thread on the top 10 worst accounts to follow crypto trading edition:

1) @crypto_banter
2) @crypto_birb
3) @scottmelker
4) @Bitboy_Crypto
5) @thecryptolark
6) @elliotrades
7) @MMCrypto
8) @JRNYcrypto
9) @TheMoonCarl
10) @IvanOnTech
2/ Why them? Well all have a similar theme in common

-undisclosed shills (paid or seed round)

-Shill low tier VC scam coins (launch pads,vaporware, etc.) as gems

-encourage newbies to lose $$$ on perps

-some dumped on followers w/ On-Chain evidence (Melker & Banter)
3/ Continued:

-well for “gems” they hype them up as next 100x with clickbait titles which newbies fall victim too

-plagiarism (bitboy)

8/10 of these people don’t know what they’re actually talking about

Have received a lot of tags to look at @kasta_app which is @TheMoonCarl project

23% of the total supply is split w/ seed+private round & advisors (pretty high)

They then state 32% of the proceeds is for marketing?!?!

Only 2% for the public round & initial mkt cap of $100k…
For the private round daily vesting begins after just 1 month. I didn’t know that was considered long term.

Who designs these?
As you can see they have the whole squad of YouTube shillers on board

1/ So I went and reviewed some of the internal documents for Solchicks

Here are some of the funniest things I found

(Yes the project is that bad)
2/ Here they admit to “buying-fake-twitter-followers” and you also can see other promos they’ve paid for
3/ Taking money from a VC they “blacklisted”
