๐จ๐จWarning: Stay Away From This Scam Ecosystem @AE_C0M , @netrun_xyz
Do not get trapped by these guys. This entire ecosystem was created by a few bad actors just to scam the community.
I distanced myself from them a long time ago. I initially looked into it because of the Netrun concept, but within 5 to 10 days, I realized they were just cheap scammers.
Here is a breakdown of how they executed this slow rug pull:
1. Endless Roles and Waste of Time
They wasted the time of thousands of people by handing out worthless discord roles. They just kept introducing new roles constantly without delivering any real value.
2. Fake Funding and Low Liquidity
They claimed to have funding, but it was either undisclosed or came straight from their own pockets. In reality, these scammers only had about $4,000 to add as initial liquidity.
3. Testnet Hype
They hyped up their testnet, promising the community a 10% to 20% allocation. They wasted thousands of hours of people's time just to build hype. I saw through this and chose not to participate.
4. The Robopet Mint Cash Grab
They launched "Robopets" with a 100k supply. The mint price was $1โ$2, but they charged an additional $1โ$2 in fees on the Solana chain. Between the mint fees and imprints (over 1,000 total), they pocketed around $4,000 right there.
5. Mainnet and Paid Imprints
Next, they launched a mainnet leaderboard, promising rewards for mainnet users. They made people pay $1โ$2 per imprint on their website. With around 1,000 imprints, they made another $2,000 to $3,000.
6. @ettecorp NFT Dump
They launched the Ettecorp NFT collection and later handed it over to their scammer friends. They priced the NFTs at $25 each, fooling about 50 people and walking away with over $1,200.
7. The Token Generation Event (TGE) Scam
When they ran out of ideas, they suddenly decided to do a TGE. They had actually removed the TGE from their official documents earlier, but they brought it back just because they needed a new tool to extract money.
8. Market Manipulation and Bubblemap Proof
They launched the token and immediately bought up 5% to 10% of the total supply using multiple insider wallets (and their main wallet) at a microscopic $4,000 market cap.
As soon as the market cap hit $200,000, all their insider wallets started dumping simultaneously.
This crashed the token back down to a $64,000 market cap.
Evidence: You can easily check Bubblemaps to see their cluster wallet activity and coordinated insider selling.
9. The Pumpdotfun Hypocrisy
The funniest and most shameful part is that they used to complain in X Spaces about how Pumpdotfun was ruining the crypto market.
Yet, when no real exchange or platform would list them, they went ahead and launched right on Pumpdotfun. They made over $8,000 from creator revenue and extracted more than $20,000 by dumping tokens on the community at the peak.
This is just what they did through their visible main wallets. I don't want to waste more of my time tracking these cheap scammers, but anyone can look at the wallet clusters on Bubblemaps to see the full extent of their manipulation.
10. The shit Airdrop ๐น
To finish the scam, they completely changed their airdrop rules. First, they promised 30%, then they reduced it to 10%, then they said that 10% would be locked in a vesting contract.
Now, they have introduced a 6-month vesting period for a tiny $70โ$80 airdrop. The total value of the airdrop for the entire community is likely under $5,000.
Now theyโre pretending to care about there $54k FDV token ๐น
Conclusion
I completely left their Discord and X pages a long time ago. Yesterday, I checked the airdrop and thought about just claiming the change and letting it go.
(Cus everyone wants free money)
But after seeing this freaking shit , I knew it was absolutely necessary to write this post and expose these scammers. Stay safe, guys.
