Received · 0Given · 3“Botted $YB token sale”Kraken has tried to play the launchpad/token sale game for the first time and was totally defeated by bots. While everyone is screaming that it was sold out in less than 1 second (which is obviously not possible, even having huge demand since there was no other way rather than interacting with Kraken UI directly), Kraken's intern proudly says "Sold out in one minute" (https://x.com/krakenfx/status/1973407284236558666) Kraken's mods also officially acknowledged in their Discord that they will (at least) try to improve the system for the upcoming launches, internally accepting that the full allocation was sold out to a few bots. CIS channels, such us "Коля Флипает" (t.me/sol_TOP) posted that he was able to get in from 3 out of 5 accounts using scripts. Having mistakes for the first time is OK, but leaving such a situation as it is means peeing on your reputation, dear Kraken.

After the $YB token sale, Legion outperformed all bad expectations. Pain #1 Oversubscribed at 100x, making it possible only for a hundred people to invest at full allocation, Legion decided to give away smaller allocations to low-quality accounts with an average 400-600 score with Indian/Nigerian/Kenyan/Indonesian KYCs (I am not racist, but that's too obvious that those KYCs are purchased). Q: Why should I care about my score and try to increase it? Pain #2 The load on the platform was expected due to high demand, and could have been prevented if the team had simply improved the infra in time. As a result, you get bad UX: - unable to make a pre-deposit - unable to apply - unable to check the status of your allocation after review - unable to reclaim/refund tokens Q: Do you really think that tier 1 projects will keep choosing you as a launch partner? Pain #3 - Unclear refund/reclaim policy (with the caveat that it may affect your score) - Ineffective user notifications about their allocation status - Partial allocations which should be settled (!) manually (as per replies from mods in Legion Discord) - Totally not responsive UI, which led to hasty and ill-considered decisions to claim a refund via smart contract Legion's token sale concept is great and I truly love it, but unfortunately, it simply doesn't work as it should.

on LEGION · 1548· 1y ago · negative6“A scam is brewing and will soon be implemented”🚨 Are you still buying the wrong tokens? What is happening with $ARIA Market narrative: 'Grayscale adds ARIA to the watchlist' → Surge of +755% within 7 days The truth: Grayscale is adding ARIAIP (Aria Protocol) — an IP tokenization protocol on the @StoryProtocol ecosystem Not ARIA (PlayAriaGame) — a dead GameFi game on the BNB Chain ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔴 $ARIA (AriaAI) — What you are actually buying: - A dead GameFi JRPG on the BNB Chain - Season 2 ends in February 2026, Season 3 has no date - Current price corresponds to an FDV of over $600 million, zero revenue, zero active users - Circulation quietly surged from 183 million to 312 million (+70%) within weeks - Proxy contract: Owners can disable selling, mint tokens, and modify rates at any time - 817 million tokens are still locked = huge future selling pressure - 24-hour trading volume surged by 1,264%, zero official announcements - The team is completely anonymous - Bubblemaps shows a highly concentrated cluster of insider wallets actively transferring tokens between related wallets — a classic sell-off preparation signal: https://v2.bubblemaps.io/map/SVrDvZOB1oMMEfcteFXP ✅ $ARIAIP (Aria Protocol) — What Grayscale actually joined: - IP copyright tokenization protocol on the Story ecosystem - Real product, real use case - Market cap: ~$1 million, FDV: ~$2.9 million - The correct token remains at a market cap of $1 million, while the wrong token has surged to a market cap of $187 million / $600 million FDV ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ This is what happens when AI monitoring bots and CT KOLs do not verify token symbols. One tweet, one mistaken token symbol → Retail investors get harvested. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Who's actually behind $ARIA (@PlayAriaGame)? The team is described as "fully anonymous" by every source. But here's what we found: Developer: Inutan Studios — Shanghai-based game studio, founded in 2018 Previous investors: Tencent, NetEase, Riot Games (in the studio, NOT in $ARIA token) $5M seed round (July 2025) led by: - Folius Ventures - The Spartan Group - Beam FDN - Animoca Brands, Galaxy Interactive ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ This is NOT a random anonymous scam. This is a systematic Shanghai GameFi studio with legitimate VC backing — which is actually worse. The playbook: - Get credible VCs for legitimacy ✅ - Keep founders anonymous ✅ - Proxy contract = full control over token ✅ - Pump on a misread narrative ✅ - $600M FDV on a dead game ✅ - 817M tokens still locked for future dumps ✅ Forulis, Spartan, and Animoca regularly back GameFi projects that dump on retail. That's their business model. The VC logos don't protect you. DYOR 🙏
