I AM TAKING ON YOUTUBE β ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
Iβm done watching this happen.
Today, I created a dedicated legal + advocacy fund on Solana and contributed $10,000 USD of my own capital to start it.

For years, @YouTube has quietly targeted crypto creators.
Shadow rules.
False strikes.
Silenced appeals.
And now full channel removals with zero explanation.
Crypto is my home.
Crypto creators and communities are my family.
Weβve onboarded millions.
We educate.
We protect newcomers.
We warn people against scams.
We create real value, and yes, we generate millions if not hundreds of millions of dollars for YouTube every year.
Yet instead of support, we get censorship without any clarity.
Over the past months, YouTube hit my channel with multiple strikes β all wrongful β and even though later admitted the mistakes and reinstated my channel, I did not get any explanation as to why it happened or what should I change. The first thing I do, when I wake up is check if my channel is still up and running or has been taken down.
Today, without warning, they permanently removed my Youtube channel, the 100XClub.
No reason.
No clarity.
No path to resolution.
I might have a chance to get it back, but many creators β especially smaller ones β never recover. They lose their platforms, their income, their communities, and their voice.
That ends now. I've made the decision to take action.
First, I want dialogue.
I want transparency.
I want a framework that protects creators and viewers alike.
But if that fails, Iβm fully prepared to take YouTube to court, and do whatever it takes to protect our industry.
If I have to be the face of this fight, I will.
If I have to go through hell, I will.
If I have to stand alone, I will.
But the truth is β I shouldnβt have to stand alone.
This isnβt just about my channel.
This is about stopping the same regulatory playbook we saw under Gary Gensler at the SEC β unclear rules enforced by punishment.
We either fight now β or we accept censorship forever.

@YouTube@TeamYouTube@YouTubeCreators
You have a chance to fix this.
To lead, not censor.
To collaborate, not punish.
@nealmohan β the ball is in your court, do the right thing. The crypto community is watching. And weβre not backing down.

My YouTube Channel, The 100XClub Has Been Permanently Removed By @YouTube
My appeal was rejected, and Iβve been told the decision is final. They wonβt put the channel back up.
For the last months, my channel has been hit with repeated warnings and strikes. Every single one was overturned after human review - because they were false. And yet today, my entire channel is gone.
I remember 2 years ago starting to stream from my babyβs room, having 0 views for weeks. No views. No reach. No voice.
Going from there to a big team, hundreds of videos and almost 10k views daily was one of the hardest thing Iβve done in my life
My mission has always been simple: help people navigate crypto safely.
- I've warned about crashes before they happened.
- I shared my own decisions so others could think for themselves.
- I added disclaimers on every single video.
- I took multiple compliance and platform courses (including with Derral Eves).
The only intention was always to help people in crypto.
- I have never promoted scams.
- I have never put my community at danger.
- I have never violated this platform intentionally - and when YouTube flagged content, we tried to corrected and change immediately.
We spent days trying to figure out what can trigger YouTube, what we should change, and adapted every time we uploaded, trying to fly blind and hoping to be compliant.
Dear @YouTube@YouTubeCreators
I have done everything I possibly could to comply with your platform
We completed many courses, including one with Derral Eves, to make sure we do our best on the platform
This is clearly a mistake, I am beyond words, sad, angry, lost.
I have been in the space since 2016, worked with incredible people and given everything to my community
Please review this once again, put my channel back, and help us understand how we can comply better so this nightmare does not happen to any honest creator again
Crypto creators, including myself want clarity. We are willing to adapt. But we are flying blind and being punished for not following a policy we donβt know anything about.
Please join my telegram to see what we are doing, please read the hundreds of daily comments on my X page and YouTube videos and make the right decision.
And for my community and friends, if I ever helped you with anything, please amplify this.

2) please repost and tag @YouTube@YouTubeCreators
This is last resort.
Please help.
In 2022 I lost $1.7m in crypto. I know how you feel now.
2022 taught me a lesson to always focus on the market and master so I never ever get into the same situation again.
I did.
And I'm here to tell you you can too.
I know it hurts, but dust yourself off, and get back to learning.
I am here for you.
Will drop an update on the 100XClub YouTube channel soon, as always.
