XCAD Founder Comes to KSI's Rescue Amid Pump and Dump Storm Content Creator KSI found an unexpected ally in
Oliver Bell, the mastermind behind XCAD Network, as allegations of a
pump-and-dump scheme swirled around the YouTube star on February 15.
Bell, in a bold move, defended KSI, highlighting his role as one of XCAD's "biggest value adders" and revealing that the YouTuber had actually been
buying more XCAD than selling. According to Bell, KSI is no
Pump & Dump artist.
Not only is KSI still invested in XCAD, but he also boasts "other wallets" and remains a
steadfast supporter of the token, Bell assured.
However, things took a turn when blockchain detective ZachXBT shared screenshots of KSI's X account, showing a hefty sale of $850k worth of XCAD. This prompted crypto sleuth Coffeezilla to cry foul play, labeling it a
"classic pump and dump." Coffeezilla drew parallels with CNBC's Jim Cramer, arguing that trading against statements made could be seen as an
ethically questionable maneuver – not just in traditional finance but also in the wild west of crypto.
