Andrew Tate's response to Coffeezilla shows that he is shallow and doesn't care about the people who invested in his token.
On-chain detective Coffeezilla has become a thorn in the side of prominent influencers who shill coins to their millions of fans.
One of his most famous scalps is Logan Paul, who fell on hard times and was torn to shreds over his now-abandoned project CryptoZoo.
Coffeezilla has also taken on figures like Sam Bankman-Freed in an effort to uncover fraud against YouTube's 3.77 million subscribers.
But now investigators are facing a full-throated backlash over a deep dive that hasn't even been made public yet – and it involves a number of Andrew Tate-approved coins.
On Wednesday, Coffeezilla shared a DM it sent to Tate, asking if he was paid to promote cryptocurrencies such as ROOST and DADDY.
The message also pointed out that this completely contradicts a video Tate released on X earlier this year in which she appears topless and has a significant amount of hair.
Coffeezilla follows an important journalistic principle known as the “right of reply.” If you make a claim against someone, that person must have the ability to respond before publication.
But instead of answering the legitimate questions raised, which would be of interest to many of his followers, Tate chose to go down a homophobic path.
No matter how you look at it, this has unleashed a huge can of worms. Coffeezilla shared a screenshot showing her inbox being bombarded with insults.
why? Because Tate reposted an anonymous account that published Coffeezilla's email address, and the misogynist told followers to “text him and call him gay.”
Investigators remain undaunted, insisting they want their questions answered, and the Coffeezilla video will likely be released without comment even after the time runs out.
The YouTuber also posted a comical mashup of Tate chomping on a cigar because it's cool, and declared that he admired Coffeezilla, saying in another clip: .
“Coffeezilla is the worst. I don't care about your videos and I don't respect your journalism.”
Considering Tate's eyes widening as he points his finger at the camera, you might think that all this scrutiny is bothering the pseudo-entrepreneur more than he realises.
What is Coffeezilla researching?
Coffeezilla, who married his high school girlfriend in 2017, has remained silent about the allegations against Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan.
However, the focus of his future investigation appears to be around the $DADDY token, which has seen a sharp decline in value since its launch and has not recovered.
It hit an all-time high of $0.2925 in mid-June when CoinMarketCap started tracking the altcoin, but has fallen more than 48% at the time of writing.
Tate's full rebuttal video is a parody of sorts. To be honest, some of the lines in there, especially the way they're delivered, are pure comedy. He tells Coffeezilla:
“I guarantee you I drink more coffee than you. I mean, you're a fraud to begin with. You're doing this little breakdown, this survey, and you just said to me in a homosexual tone. I sent you an email.”
To be honest, I don't even know where to start. Can't you just put “coffee” on your handle unless you prove you have a higher caffeine tolerance than Andrew Tate? Why bother scrutinizing a man who has more legal trouble than a Lamborghini to reveal his sexual preferences?
Even before we learn the exact nature of the Coffeezilla investigation, we have no idea how unskilled Andrew Tate really is, and ultimately how much he cares about his community and the people who invested in his token. You can gain insight into why you don't care.
Tate's toxic masculinity preys on the insecurities of disenfranchised youth around the world, while his foray into cryptocurrencies bites into their wallets and they, too, will one day experience extreme wealth. It creates a false illusion.
If you think about it, Tate's branding and messaging is reminiscent of a time when most of the crypto industry is moving away from it. The ICO boom of 2017 was full of wild excesses, along with fast cars and endless images. bundle of cash.
The crypto community needs to rally behind Coffeezilla in this fight. Coffeezilla is someone who took great risks to expose the industry's bad actors and stand up for those who lost their life savings to the industry's most audacious scams. Above all, he is acting as an immune system for cryptocurrencies, with every investigation slowly chipping away at the industry's “Wild West” image and opportunists plotting to defraud unsuspecting victims. deterring thieves.
The crypto community needs to distance itself from narcissists like Tate who use homophobia as a weapon to escape their own shortcomings. Coffeezilla's sexual orientation has absolutely no bearing on the work he does, and it's shameful to think otherwise. Digital assets will never see mass adoption if influencers in this space criticize innocent people who have done nothing wrong.
And last but not least, the crypto community needs to realize that Andrew Tate and his coins represent all that this progressive sector is hateful, toxic, and dishonest. . Being associated with him will only hold the rest of the industry back.
Crypto is all about the future. Tate's worldview is a thing of the past.
