@justfwy@NFTWannabe@CaptainShilmore Surface people like to throw their biased perceptions at others. The process of gaining perspective and facts is too much for most people unfortunately. A world where we operate out of love not hate is a rare one but doable in a smaller circle.
So, I'm not in BAYC.
And I'm not in the trenches.
I'm a crypto artist..
And Ive been doing this long before there was any money in NFTs.
I minted my first NFT in 2018.
I have a reputation for putting scammers and grifters on blast.
I typically focus on the truly dangerous grifters..people with influence who legitimately have everyone fooled.
Grifters who pretend to be something they aren't, and take advantage of good people. Individuals like 6529, Pak, Snowfro, etc...those are real grifters.
They extract from thousands of people using actual deception and fraud.
Lets examine how they operate:
Their game centers around creating an illusion of interest and false value for artists and art collections that they stand to benefit from. They use networks of influential accounts and bot accounts to drum up hype on social media. They use dozens of side wallets to wash trade nft collections. They suck in artists, art enthusiasts, and art collectors using completely false and manufactured values and interest. They extract tens of millions of dollars under a deeply coordinated guise of legitimacy.
Now let's take a look at Ben.
Ben deals in the realm of shitcoins and memecoins. He isn't running ICOs for tokens with elaborate websites pretending to have utility or purpose. He deals strictly in tokens where every single person is trying to do the same thing. Profit off of someone else by buying lower and selling higher. That's the name of the game and nobody is pretending otherwise.
Now, let's look at what Ben is ACTUALLY doing when people label him a scammer.
Memecoins rely on volume and social traction.
Ben will often post a ticker for a token that he wants to create traction for. He will often post AHEAD OF time that he intends to make a certain size buy of that token. This creates the potential for creating traction, but it also exposes him to major risk, because anyone who sees that post, or who already owns the token, can actually quickly buy, and then just dump after he makes his huge buy.
When he makes his buy, he is putting down real money. And that money is at huge risk for being dumped on. Ideally, his hope is that others will follow his lead and it will create upward momentum. But what happens when it doesn't? Should he sit there holding his tokens just waiting for everyone else to sell and profit off him?
No. Any sensible person would sell and try and at least recoup a percentage of what they put down. Generally, taking that risk results in a loss. From what I have seen, Ben usually waits a considerable amount of time after making his buys before he sells. Yet, still, every time.... People accuse him of being a scammer.
Everybody in the trenches is trying to get one over on someone else. From what I see, Ben is one of the most transparent about his business, and he is taking the largest risks out of anyone.
Also, he is out there trying to do more for other people than anyone else appears to be.
My experience with Ben sits outside the tokens and the trenches. And I have known him to be nothing but a straightforward and stand-up guy who has personally helped me out twice when I really needed it. He didn't get anything from it. There were no posts made drawing attention to his goodwill. It did nothing for his rep. I was the only witness to it.
I imagine there are many similar experiences out there from people.
One thing I know about grifters, is that they will never stand and face the music when they grift. They won't engage in discussions or stand in open forum against their detractors.
I have seen a LOT of people call Ben a scammer, and not a single one of those people had any actual receipts or evidence to stand behind the accusations they were making.
