ZachXBT: External accusations and pressure have weakened its willingness to conduct public investigations.

On-chain investigator ZachXBT stated that most cryptocurrency Twitter users in the community hold him to “nearly impossible standards.” He explained that when he publishes investigations about manipulated tokens before insiders exit, he is accused of shorting; yet when he publishes such investigations after the fact, he is criticized for failing to speak out publicly before damage occurred. ZachXBT also noted that this kind of feedback has made him reluctant to regularly publish investigations publicly, as enduring the associated pressure is not worthwhile when he can continue his work privately. He added that many people do not conduct their own investigations but instead place the entire burden on him.
