They ran a YouTube Live stream on loop with an Auntie Cathy and Elon interview about crypto and made it look very believable. YouTube finally took down the video after about a day.
Hard work.
- judge2020 5y agoFunny that the TX Hashes are truncated and (of course) not real. But i've seen those YT live streams since forever, and sorting by upload date shows just how much uses his likeness for unrelated scams / grifting. https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=elon+crypto&sp=CAI%253D https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=elon+crypto&sp=...
- 3np 5y agoInteresting that they seem to have one global address for each coin - so we can go look at their transactions[0][1]. Note that the ticker on the button is obviously fake (the truncated addresses line up with the addresses here but not the txs). 45 ETH transactions and 19 BTC transactions over 3 days. Here[0] we can trace the one time they moved BTC so far: A CoinJoin. I'm not sure how Samourai's joins work these days but it doesn't look like JoinMarket so I'm guessing that or Wasabi. The majority of incoming are exchange withdrawals. [0] https://etherscan.io/address/0x53F6656DE60C7c92317dCBed4E034f822Fe1233B https://etherscan.io/address/0x53F6656DE60C7c92317dCBed4E034...
