ZachXBT is a popular crypto detective in the crypto sector, working independently to uncover & trace suspicious & illegal crypto activities. In the past, he helped several people to recover huge amounts of funds against attacks. 

On 10 Sep 2023, ZachXBT uncovered two crypto influencers who were involved in the new meme token promotions.

This crypto detective also shared a video clip in which one of the Influencers is asking for a few more % of the total supply for promoting the token. 

We can see & listen in the shared video clip that @TraderNJ1 said that he can promote the meme token as a 10-20x potential return type token. 

3/ EX 1: BABYSHIB

In Telegram messages provided by the BabyShib team it shows a conversation with Peta/NJ discussing marketing for 3.5% of the supply

They even claim to have “no intentions of selling anything anytime soon”

However these crypto influencers promised that they would not sell but still, they sold the token, even at a low market cap, which was really a very bad move by these influencers. 

@PetaByteCapital responded to these allegations and said that he never participated in the paid promotion of any coin.

The crypto token projects confirmed that both of these two influencers failed to comply with the actual deal and sold immediately after receiving it.

6/ In this message received from the BabyShib team they outlined how NJ & Peta had not followed the original deal as they did not onboard SZ or XO to market the project, did not make YT videos, and sold almost immediately after. pic.twitter.com/LXnPM3mC3L

In the conclusion, ZachXBT noted that these two influencers not only did wrong with the crypto projects but also inappropriately used other Influencers’ names for personal benefits while trying to cover the whole unethical activities via playing a victim card game.

10/ It’s clear their strategy here is deceptive here as they

>act like they were not compensated by the projects
>act like they bought into the project themselves
>use other influencers names to get a % of the supply
>lie to projects and play victim when caught
