As time progresses the disappointing truth is becoming apparent. So many knowledgeable and strategic individuals who could use their superpowers for something constructive to be shared amongst everyone in the Crypto/NFT world, therefore lifting everyone up - instead use their skills for the exact opposite.
Social media influencers are inextricably intertwined with top projects, businesses and brands; for it is not just their bread and butter – but their ticket to riches beyond our imagination and a life of unending luxury and leisure. For the influencer you represent one thing; exit liquidity. You are merely a wallet to be emptied until only a husk is left.
In their eyes you’re not a real person anyway. The garden variety sociopath flourishes in a space that is more uncharted territory than certainty. But one thing is for sure they will throw you under for a few bucks if they have to, without caring if it bankrupts you or you end up jumping off a building.
2022 has seen it’s share of mind-blowing frauds, scams, and thefts. From the arrest of Heather Morgan aka Razzlekhan for her part in the multi-billion Bitfinex hack, to serial rugger Zagabond (4 projects and counting), the exposure of Charles Moscoe aka Beanie’s 22+ years of IRL and online pilfering and backstabbing of customers; Ryder Ripps stealing and profiteering multi millions off a brand’s entire 10,000 piece collection while all the while he defames them with unfounded racism allegations and thumbs his nose; and the founder of Milady Rohit Okhandiar aka Charlotte Fang doxxed as the leader of a pedo abuse cult, Do Kwon and the epic LUNA meltdown ruining thousands of lives (and where is that missing 2 billion)? The list goes on, sadly.
This Artwork reflects the vapid stupidity of the mesmerized and brainwashed NFT consumer who like a beaten animal used to abuse, keep returning to the same criminals for more of the same treatment. Most never seem to learn from their masochist mistakes. It’s truly pathetic.
