The news about the fraudulent donations has been all over the timeline these past couple of days.
If you ask me, if you really want to do something, donating a few thousand or tens of thousands wouldn't raise any eyebrows. But to insist on posting a screenshot of a 200,000 transfer to show off, that's just too much.
However, that being said, the person directly stated in a previous interview - not afraid of being criticized, any publicity is good publicity, and traffic can be converted into money.
Maybe this time the crash was intentional? After all, the hype has risen, and there are a few more monetization channels.
All I can say is that some people will do anything for traffic. This bottom line has indeed refreshed my understanding.

Black and red are still red; this trap is indeed played skillfully, and the bottom line really doesn't exist.

Black and red can also make money, this trap is really skillful, as long as the hype rises, you've won.

It's the old trick of playing people for suckers again; the tactic of using edited images to deceive donations has almost become an industry standard. It's truly the rhythm of dropping to zero.

Ha, it's that trap again. Editing photos for 200,000, they really think we're fools, this operation is truly low-level.
Black or red, it's still red. This sentence hits the mark, indicating it was intentional. Once the heat rises, they start to monetize, I just want to laugh.
For traffic, they'll do anything; this generation of internet celebrities really has no bottom line.
Hey, do you think after this kind of flop, will fans actually increase? I'm betting five bucks they will.
So, in our circle, it's like this; those who do real business with real money don't get the heat.
This slap to the face must hurt, haha.
Clear-sighted people see through it, they just want to ride the heat. It's just a strategy.
I just can't understand why they have to edit photos? Can't they just say it directly?
Really, this era emphasizes being accountable for your actions, but this guy is all about traps.

According to the trend analysis of on-chain governance data, this type of behavior is essentially a case of "incentive distortion" in the sense of Token economics. From the perspective of game theory, when traffic can be directly converted into monetization benefits, the cost of honest signals is already higher than the benefits brought by false signals... No, why am I talking about economic models here? To put it simply, some people really have no bottom line.

On-chain data shows that this guy's wallet address indeed has no record of any withdrawals of 200,000 in the past three days. From the code, it appears to be a carefully constructed fake screenshot. What's interesting is that such a rudimentary Photoshop technique can actually deceive so many people. It is worth noting that there may be a more complex traffic harvesting mechanism at work behind this.
