Can you believe it? A leading exchange just got exposed for an internal "shady operation"—an employee secretly used the official X account to promote a meme coin they created!



After getting caught, this guy was immediately suspended. The exchange quickly issued a statement distancing itself: Our official account never endorses any projects. Period.

This is actually pretty alarming. Think about it—a so-called "official" account suddenly starts hyping a project. How many people would jump in without a second thought? In reality, it could just be an insider fishing in troubled waters.

So, those "official traffic" opportunities that fall from the sky? Nine times out of ten, there’s something fishy going on. The real Alphas that can make you money will never come from some random tweet—you have to dig up info yourself, check backgrounds, and verify the logic.

There’s no such thing as a free lunch in the market, only costly lessons.

Oh man, this is exactly what I always say—insiders at exchanges can fleece retail investors even harder than project teams. I saw something similar last year: as soon as the official account made a statement, retail investors rushed in, and ended up losing everything. Supporting three kids depends on having an eye for these kinds of audit loopholes. Keep a close watch on contract code and you'll never fall for stuff like this. --- That's why I never trust any "official recommendations" and always do my own research. This is the bear market survival rule—any Alpha others hype probably has a catch. --- Unbelievable, internal employees shilling their own meme coins? That's even more ruthless than the project teams. If I were the exchange CEO, I'd have compliance audit all account permissions a long time ago. How is this kind of thing still happening nowadays? --- Ugh, another case—why do people always try shady tricks? Honestly, getting caught is lucky; most of the time, nobody even finds out. --- This guy is really bold, using the official account to fleece people for his own gain. Now his whole persona is ruined. With this level of intelligence, he still wants to get rich off meme coins? What a joke.

Haha, insiders are the most common slackers in the workplace. This time he got caught only because his skills weren’t up to par. Seriously, you have to be extra cautious when you see official accounts hyping up a project—nine times out of ten it’s just a trap. This guy is probably regretting it big time, losing his job over a meme coin. I’ve never seen anyone actually make money from tweets; mining on your own is the only real way. With stuff like this, how many people have to get burned before they learn the lesson... Official accounts screwing up is nothing new. Anyway, I don’t trust any official recommendations anymore.

Once again, it’s an insider causing trouble, this time using the official account to dump on retail investors. Truly ruthless. --- Take my advice: anyone who apes in as soon as the official tweet drops is just exit liquidity. --- This guy’s got guts, using the exchange’s account to pump his own coin. Human nature, huh. --- Official endorsement = trap, this has been proven so many times already. --- That’s why now I question everything from official accounts. It’s just not worth it. --- Free alpha? Keep dreaming. You have to rely on your own research. --- Suspended? I don’t think it’s enough. This kind of insider should be fired outright.
