PANews reported on November 8th that blockchain detective ZachXBT tweeted that crypto KOL Brandon Hong (@brandank_cr) was discovered last year to have fabricated investment profit screenshots. ZachXBT questioned why a large number of users still believed his content and were willing to pay to join his community. Brandon Hong publicly claimed to have turned $700,000 into $20 million, but provided no concrete evidence of multiple eight-figure gains. Instead, he simply analyzed numerous stock codes and listed profitable stocks. ZachXBT added that he was blocked by Brandon Hong one minute after posting the tweet.
