Crypto Drama: The Pump-n-Dump Showdown You Won’t Believe! 🎭💰

by

Ah, the delightful world of cryptocurrency, where fortunes are made and lost faster than one can say “pump and dump!” Our illustrious crypto sleuth, ZachXBT, has taken it upon himself to shine a rather unflattering light on the ever-so-hypocritical James Wynn, a trader of Hyperliquid fame. It appears that Mr. Wynn, in a fit of moral indignation, has warned his followers about a fraudulent token that dastardly bears his name. How noble! Or is it merely a case of the pot calling the kettle black? 🤔

On the fateful day of May 27, Wynn took to the platform formerly known as Twitter (now X, because why not?) to alert his loyal subjects about a nefarious cabal launching coins in his name. “THE CABAL ARE LAUNCHING COINS IN MY NAME AND RUGGING THEM,” he proclaimed, as if he were the protagonist in a tragic play. 🎭

With a flourish, he cited a staggering volume of $4.3 million and a market cap of a mere $495,000, urging his followers to steer clear of this dubious token. He then went on to declare his undying love for only two meme coins — $MOONPIG and $PEPE — dismissing all others as mere scams. How very selective of him! 🐷🐸

🚨 WARNING 🚨 SCAM ALERT 🚨
you literally pumped and dumped the same kind of meme coin scams on your followers over the past few years.

But lo and behold! ZachXBT, with the audacity of a true detective, responded directly to Wynn’s melodramatic post, accusing him of having a rather colorful history of promoting and profiting from similar schemes. “You literally pumped and dumped the same kind of meme coin scams on your followers over the past few years,” he quipped, as the audience gasped in collective disbelief. 🎤

This fiery exchange reignited a veritable bonfire of past allegations against Wynn, particularly a scandalous exposé from mid-2024 involving a project charmingly named BabyPepe. A user by the name of Dylan, with the zeal of a true whistleblower, shared a detailed 15-part thread accusing Wynn of clandestine dealings with the BabyPepe project. Oh, the drama!

According to Dylan, back in June 2024, our dear James had the audacity to contact the BabyPepe team, requesting a private allocation of tokens. “Hey man, can you secure me a bag?” he inquired, as if he were ordering takeout. 🍔

On June 29th, James contacted a mod in the babypepe community, saying “Hey man, can you secure me a bag”. After a brief discussion, James was referred to a team member. To projects reading this, any respectable person will not DM you asking for a bag. Red flag number one. 4/15

Internal messages revealed Wynn’s insatiable appetite for tokens, as he requested a whopping 2% of the token supply, worth approximately $57,000 at the time. He boldly claimed he could elevate the token to a $20 million market cap. Such confidence! Or was it sheer hubris? 💸

Shortly after receiving the tokens, Wynn made a fleeting mention of the coin in his Telegram group before executing a series of transactions that would make even the most seasoned trader blush. He reportedly earned a tidy profit of $68,000 within mere hours. The BabyPepe team, in a fit of betrayal, claimed they were subsequently blocked by Wynn on all platforms. How very courteous of him! 🙄

One community member, in a moment of desperation, asked whether the coin was still viable. To which Wynn replied, “No go.” He then had the audacity to post a meme mocking those who dared to criticize his actions. Truly, the art of sarcasm is alive and well! 🎨

People in James’ tg chat are defending him saying there was no contract, claiming that the team simply donated him tokens. To that, I respond with a quote from James himself: “I’ll probably take this to 20m market cap within days and give it the attention it needs to take off.…

Dylan, ever the diligent investigator, also addressed Wynn’s public proclamations of never accepting paid promotions. Screenshots in the thread suggested otherwise, leading Dylan to quip, “His word is his contract.” Ah, the irony! 🤷‍♂️

🚨ALERT: Zach XBT calls out James Wynn, saying he’s pumped and dumped memecoin scams on his followers for years‼️

ZachXBT’s latest comments have drawn the attention of many, with users on X echoing his sentiments. Even notable figures in the crypto realm have accused Wynn of exploiting his followers for personal gain, all while masquerading as a champion against scams. The audacity! 🎭

As of now, Wynn has yet to respond to ZachXBT’s claims or the detailed thread by Dylan that has reignited this scandal. This entire debacle has sparked a renewed discussion about the accountability of influencers in the meme coin space, especially as more unsuspecting investors join the fray and regulators sharpen their pencils. ✏️

In the midst of this chaos, James Wynn has been making headlines for his audacious 40x leveraged bet on Bitcoin when it reached its record price of $111,000. Known for his rapid-fire trading, one can only wonder what his next move will be. 🎰

Meanwhile, ZachXBT, revered for his relentless pursuit of crypto fraud, continues to expose the underbelly of this digital gold rush. His recent comments have only heightened concerns about the influence wielded by crypto personalities on social media. As this conversation unfolds, many are urging caution and encouraging others to conduct their own research rather than blindly following promotional posts, for in this market, a single tweet can send shockwaves through the financial landscape. 🌊
