ChainCatcher news, on-chain detective ZachXBT posted on X stating: "The SCALE, NTD, TPU, and OPSEC projects are all linked to the same person, Zopp0, who uses numerous KOLs shown in leaked messages to deceive traders. Zopp0 secretly pays others to promote OPSEC while participating in key decisions as an owner in private Telegram chats, including discussions about the lack of technical research. Earlier this year, I reported several KOLs promoting these AI GPU-related scams, as these scams dropped 90% in a single day. I have been monitoring these messages since April of this year, but ultimately never published them because when I previously warned people about the danger signals, I had to deal with angry token holders and well-paid KOLs. I believe now is a better time, as three of these projects have conducted Rug Pulls."
