We could have stopped after creating our full transparency and accountability launchpad...

but we didn't.

A little over 1 month later we launched Brigid Herald - the Web3 marketplace to address another problem area... hiring trusted KOL, influencer, and other talent to promote your project.

Each day is a new opportunity to make Web3 better.

Web3 marketing runs on X and Telegram. So do scams.

In 2025, U.S. consumers reported $177M lost to scams starting on those platforms.

That’s why we built Herald: reviewed providers, clear terms, Stripe payments tied to documented delivery, and reviews from completed work.

@davidgokhshtein If it was easy, everyone would do it. Don't expect to ride on someone else's coattails. Forge your own path.

[Rob | Brigid Forge @RobBrigidForge]

@sue_xbt Very true, but the initial push to get thousands of followers in place is very difficult. It's almost like hitting the lottery.

[Rob | Brigid Forge @RobBrigidForge]

@JakeGagain "But @jakegagain, how Will I know if its a scam coin?"

Did they launch on @BrigidForge? You're good.

If they didn't? DYOR

[Rob | Brigid Forge @RobBrigidForge]

🤣All these are absolutely hilarious:

What's the next 100X token? 📈

I have $50K. What project should I ape? 💰

What's the next Meme that will moon? 🌖

Do you honestly think someone is taking their crypto investment advice from random CT replies?

If so, please 🚫DO NOT🚫 follow me. You're not going to like seeing my future posts.

[Rob | Brigid Forge @RobBrigidForge]

We're working to make crypto scams obsolete. Transparent launches, developer accountability after launch, community notifications for dev controlled movement. We're here to break the cycle that has been accepted in the crypto space for years. Ready to collab and build with us?

Figured it was time to separate the company voice from the guy behind it a little more.

@BrigidForge will stay focused on official updates. Over here, I’ll share more of the actual founder journey: what we’re building, what’s working, what isn’t, and what I’m learning along the way.

If you’re building too, let’s connect.

[Brigid Forge @BrigidForge]

Behind Brigid Forge is a founder focused on building, testing, improving, and pushing the project forward.

I really wish I had found this post before dealing with @Crypto_bullman11 He's still at it on Telegram.

He uses Denzel Marslow account to initiate contact and then works his scam form there.

My experience was very similar to what @0xarewah reported. He is always asking for more payment due to unforseen circumstances and provides no services.

It's experiences like this that further re-enforce the desperate need this space has for a trusted marketplace that protects clients payments and provider work equally. This is the exact reason we created https://t.co/1LfFBAcHeA

If anyone is interested in the full telegram transcript with this thief I have all the evidence of my dealings with @crypto_bullman11 I'd be happy to send over. Just send me a DM.

[𝗭𝗮𝗵𝗿𝗮𝗵.𝗻𝗳𝘁 @0xarewah]

🚨 SCAM ALERT:

I'm sharing this so no other builder falls for it.
Few screenshots attached.

I was connected to @Crypto_bullman11 by @Khkristian.
The pitch: they bring investors. I'm a solo builder. 4 years in web3, no team, building from a phone in Kano. I wanted my project to succeed.

What happened:

• I sent $100 ETH + $150 worth of $EQLENS (which I bought specifically for this)
• Then $300 for a "Telegram community" money I didn't really have
• Then came more requests. $400. Then $150 more. Always another reason
• When I said I couldn't pay more and asked for the $300 back, I got silence

The part that stings most: that $300 was school fees for my Master's degree. I chose to bet on my project instead.

I'm not writing this for sympathy. I was dumb. I wanted it to work so badly I ignored every red flag.

But if you're a builder — especially if you're early, solo, or bootstrapping — please learn from my mistake:

🚩 Investors who ask YOU for money are not investors
🚩 Real partners don't demand payment in your own token
🚩 If the ask keeps growing, you're being farmed

I have the full conversation history and screenshots. @Khkristian and @Crypto_bullman11 @Cryptobullman1 you know what you did.

Builders, guard your capital. We work too hard for it.

Don't blame me this is my first time and don't trust anyone.

@missteencrypto Safe travels!

This is where @BrigidForge comes in to make stats like this a thing of the past.

[KanjiTRX @KanjiTRX_]

Just came across a new study that analyzed 6.4 million Solana memecoins across seven months. The researchers found that a vast majority showed rug-pull characteristics within the first hour of launch.

What really caught my attention: their models could identify potential rug-pull behavior using just the first five minutes of trading data.

We talk a lot about how easy it is to launch. Maybe we should be talking just as much about how we make those launches safer.

Worth reading. 👇 | @arxiv
