1/ Examining how @ashwsbreal has mislead thousands of people to build up an 8 figure crypto portfolio.
2/ Our story begins with Ash’s Telegram group.
Well what’s wrong with the TG group?
a) pumping & dumping lowcaps on CEXs.
b) Insider paid group to receive picks before main TG channel.
c) Undisclosed IDO promotions
d) Links to a sketchy VC
3/ All messages of pumping & dumping lowcaps have been deleted but I’ve recovered a few instances from people on Twitter complaining.
4/ Here’s two other instances:
5/ Ash claimed it wasn’t intentional and they would refund people.
Yet there’s people complaining on Twitter they never were reimbursed for the P&D.
There’s also zero mention of the VIDT P&D either.
6/ Here’s a breakdown of the paid group:
In the public TG group Ash would market a paid private group to its members.
-Blatantly saying they get buy signals & insider info before the main public channel
-I’ve attached the payment address courtesy of a former member
7/ On 03/06/21 a buy signal was made in the paid group to buy $ROYA
Guess what? The address in the photo above (0X43) was making large buys a few days prior.
The paid group is told it will be shilled shortly in the public group.
8/ As of now all is going well and it gets posted in the public group.
Immediately after Ash says in the paid group “who the f is selling”
*hint it’s the address from above sending to a different wallet to sell*
Ash acts mad saying everyone messed up the pump (the irony).
9/ Here are all the undisclosed shills that tie between the public Telegram & Twitter account:
AIOZ is down 93%
GS is down 97%
10/ Most shills in the Public Telegram get deleted. Here are a couple more Twitter ones.
BLES down 99%
EQZ down 97%
KPAD down 99%
MNY down 94%
Just a quick scroll through Ash’s feed shows all the undisclosed shills. It’s clear they will promote any IDO.
11/ Here’s where things get even more interesting I messaged the same account to try and join the “paid TG group” and now instead of Ash the account says Jazz @EverseHQ
12/ What remains unclear is if the Ash account is ran by that VC or they are just working together.
The fact the TG account matches the Public TG leads me to believe Ash is owned by Everse.
13/ I glanced over all the related addresses (giveaways, dumping, paid group).
Both show a transaction history filled with IDO allocations with outflows to the main wallets (don’t appear to be CEXs)
Also further leads me to believe Ash is Everse.
14/ It’s interesting to see how large this operation is and how they have no morals to disclose to followers.
Hopefully some more information about this relationship can come to light. It’s clear whatever is happening is making these people millions at the expense of others.
Update: I’ve received multiple DMs from people that in fact confirm Ash & Everse Capital are ran by the same person
1/ Over the past few months I imagine you have seen many Coinbase users complain on X about their accounts suddenly being restricted.
This is the result of aggressive risk models and Coinbase’s failure to stop its users losing $300M+ per year to social engineering scams.
2/ Myself and @tanuki42_ spent time reviewing Coinbase withdrawals and gathering data from my DMs for high confidence thefts on various chains.
Below is a table we created which shows $65M stolen from Coinbase users in Dec 2024 - Jan 2025.
Our number is likely much lower than the actual amount stolen as our data was limited to my DMs and thefts we discovered on-chain which does not account for Coinbase support tickets and police reports we do not have access to.
3/ Let’s walk through how these Coinbase social engineering scams work.
A victim reached out to me last month after losing ~$850K.
Graphing out this theft lead to a consolidation address with 25+ other victims tied to ‘coinbase-hold.eth’.
1/ An investigation into how the threat actor Serpent went from a pro Fortnite player to helping steal $3.5M via meme coin scams launched from 9+ account compromises on X & IG and gambling the proceeds away at online casinos.
2/ Serpent (SerpentAU) is a former pro Fortnite player from Australia who was released from the esports organization ‘Overtime’ after being caught allegedly cheating in June 2020.
He then co-founded the NFT project DAPE in March 2022 which later rug pulled.
3/ In March 2024 Serpent launched another project called ERROR which rug pulled and got him banned from X.
1/ Over the past few months I have been tracking a series of related compromises for McDonald’s, Usher, Kabosu Owner, Andy Ayrey, Wiz Khalifa, SPX 6900, etc on X & IG which has resulted in an estimated $3.5M+ stolen via launching Pump Fun meme coins.
2/ On Aug 21, 2024 the McDonald’s IG became compromised and a post was made promoting the bundled meme coin GRIMACE and the hacker began trolling after.
$690K+ from the pump and dump was consolidated to two wallets.
3/ On Sep 3, 2024 the McDonalds attacker transferred 101.5 SOL to two addresses which deployed and sniped SCHRADER after the Actor Dean Norris had his X account hacked.
1/ An investigation into the social engineering scammer Ronaldd (Ronald Spektor) who allegedly helped steal $6.5M last month from a single victim by impersonating Coinbase support.
2/ A US based victim sent me a DM on Oct 7, 2024 after receiving a call from a spoofed number impersonating Coinbase support where they were coerced in to using a phishing site.
3/ An initial tracing of the theft saw all of the stolen funds flow to eXch on Ethereum and Bitcoin where funds were converted to Litecoin and transferred to numerous services.
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.
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.
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.
1/ Meet Yicong Wang (王逸聪), a Chinese OTC trader who has helped Lazarus Group convert tens of millions of stolen crypto to cash from various hacks via bank transfers since 2022.
2/ A follower reached out to me a few months ago after having their exchange account frozen after completing a P2P transaction with Yicong Wang an OTC who has used pseudonyms like Seawang, Greatdtrader, & BestRhea977
3/ They then shared one of Yicong Wang’s Tron wallet addresses with me from a screenshot of their WeChat conversation.
