X Platform Under Fire for Authenticity and Scam Concerns

Protos reports on two incidents bringing negative attention to the social media platform X. In the first instance, an individual known as Ten Ten, reportedly associated with Justin Sun's ex-partner, claimed her X account was suspended after numerous reports questioned whether she was a 'real person.' This raises questions about user verification and authenticity on the platform's ability to police its user base effectively.

Separately, a winner of the X Creators $1 million prize, identified as Beaverd, has been exposed as a 'memecoin pump-and-dumper.' This revelation, despite Beaverd's seemingly unbothered response, casts a shadow on the integrity of the prize program and the types of activities occurring on-chain. The exposure underscores concerns about illicit financial activities and scams within the broader digital asset space, particularly involving memecoins and influencer-driven promotions, even among individuals recognized by major platforms.
