A popular crypto blogger became a millionaire thanks to one tweet

An influential cryptocurrency blogger known as Pauly0x managed to collect more than 500 ETH simply by posting his wallet address and a GIF with the words «You're getting nothing.» He also registered the ENS domain yougetnothing. eth and supplemented the tweet with a popular meme of a laughing Brazilian.

Within 7 minutes, the «most honest crypto investor» had raised $ 76.38 worth of ETH.

However, not all crypto enthusiasts believed that the blogger was able to raise such a sum through innocent donations. They suspect that Pauly0x is simply laundering money by sending «dirty» ETH under the guise of charitable contributions. «He's just attracting the attention of a few idiots who will send him their bucks,» wrote one Twitter user.

Another user found out that one of the addresses that sent 10 ETH to the blogger’s account had only been in existence for a week. And this wallet received the deposit via a transfer from the MEXC exchange without KYC.

Currently, the discussion in the Twitter crypto community is gaining momentum. Many users want an open investigation of the situation and promise to closely monitor the developments.

As a reminder, crypto blogger Dami-Defi discovered a whale investor who managed to earn about $ 1,300,000 on the new cryptocurrency RefundCoin (RFD) in just three days. According to the analyst, on May 20, the user spent $ 16,300 to buy 13,567,175,828 RFD tokens. By May 23, the cryptocurrency in his portfolio rose to $ 1,327,042.
