ZachXBT Says Crypto Community Criticizes Timing of His Token Manipulation Investigations

On-chain investigator ZachXBT said the crypto community often makes demands of his investigative work that are difficult to satisfy. According to Odaily, he wrote on X that when he publishes token manipulation investigations before insiders exit, he is accused of shorting the related projects, citing RAVE, M, and LAB. He said that when he releases findings after events occur, he is criticized for not issuing warnings earlier. ZachXBT added that ongoing skepticism has reduced his motivation to regularly publish investigation reports publicly, and that he would rather continue investigations privately than face public pressure. He also criticized some community members for relying too heavily on his investigative results instead of conducting their own research.
