Audit log

Every state-changing event for Acme Crypto: moderation decisions on community submissions, plus corrections and updates from the news pipeline. URL-based decisions are designed to carry three independent witnesses — the original source, an Internet Archive snapshot, and a Solana memo signed by our publicly-disclosed publisher key. Archive coverage is still being backfilled, so each decision below reports its own snapshot status rather than assuming one exists.

The first is the Go cryptography library's implementation of ACME, a certificate-issuance protocol used in software development, which is not a crypto-asset entity. The second is an \"Acme Crypto\" profile on Medium, which describes itself as a group of dedicated and experienced microcap researchers whose aim is to find genuine microcaps with massive potential for gains. Searches for a token or ticker named ACME on CoinMarketCap, CoinGecko and DEX aggregators returned no matching listing, only similarly named assets such as AC3, ACE and ACEToken, which are different projects and are not assessed here. This page therefore covers only the self-described \"Acme Crypto\" Medium publisher. If the requester meant a different entity, such as a specific token contract, exchange or individual, additional identifying details are needed.","heading":"Identification and name ambiguity","severity":"low","sources":[{"credibility":3,"name":"Acme Crypto - Medium (About page, as described in search results)","type":"social_media","url":"https://acmecrypto.medium.com/about"},{"credibility":2,"name":"Go crypto library, acme package (googlesource)","type":"official","url":"https://go.googlesource.com/crypto/+/811831de4c4dd03a0b8737233af3b36852386373/acme"}]},{"content":"No source found links Acme Crypto to any specific token promotion, paid promotion arrangement, pump-and-dump scheme or loss. Academic and press coverage shows that groups promoting microcap tokens through messaging platforms have been a documented vehicle for crypto pump-and-dump schemes, including in a six-month 2018 study that identified thousands of pump signals on Telegram and Discord. This is general background on the category only. It is not an allegation against Acme Crypto, and no evidence was found that Acme Crypto engages in such conduct. The publisher's research claims, track record, disclosures of token holdings and any compensation for coverage could not be verified because the Medium page could not be retrieved directly (the fetch returned HTTP 403), and only a search-result description was available.","heading":"Microcap promotion risk context","severity":"low","sources":[{"credibility":2,"name":"The Block - University researchers identified over 4,800 pump and dump schemes involving crypto over a six month period","type":"news_article","url":"https://www.theblock.co/amp/linked/5667/university-researchers-identified-over-4800-pump-and-dump-schemes-involving-crypto-over-a-six-month-period"},{"credibility":2,"name":"Finance Magnates - Telegram a Hub of Crypto Pump-And-Dump Schemes, Study Shows","type":"news_article","url":"https://www.financemagnates.com/cryptocurrency/news/telegram-is-a-hub-of-crypto-pump-and-dump-schemes-study-shows/"},{"credibility":3,"name":"Acme Crypto - Medium (About page, as described in search results)","type":"social_media","url":"https://acmecrypto.medium.com/about"}]},{"content":"No regulatory actions, court filings, hacks, exploits or credible user-complaint reports naming Acme Crypto or a crypto entity called Acme were found in the searches conducted. The absence of results does not establish that none exist. It reflects the limited coverage available and the ambiguity of the name. The searches covered scam, fraud, rug pull, SEC, lawsuit and hack terms. No Tier 1 or Tier 2 source specific to this entity was located, so confidence in this page is low.","heading":"Regulatory, legal and security record","severity":"low","sources":[{"credibility":3,"name":"Acme Crypto - Medium (About page, as described in search results)","type":"social_media","url":"https://acmecrypto.medium.com/about"}]}],"sources_used":[{"credibility":3,"name":"Acme Crypto - Medium (About page, as described in search results)","type":"social_media","url":"https://acmecrypto.medium.com/about"},{"credibility":2,"name":"Go crypto library, acme package (googlesource)","type":"official","url":"https://go.googlesource.com/crypto/+/811831de4c4dd03a0b8737233af3b36852386373/acme"},{"credibility":2,"name":"The Block - University researchers identified over 4,800 pump and dump schemes involving crypto over a six month period","type":"news_article","url":"https://www.theblock.co/amp/linked/5667/university-researchers-identified-over-4800-pump-and-dump-schemes-involving-crypto-over-a-six-month-period"},{"credibility":2,"name":"Finance Magnates - Telegram a Hub of Crypto Pump-And-Dump Schemes, Study Shows","type":"news_article","url":"https://www.financemagnates.com/cryptocurrency/news/telegram-is-a-hub-of-crypto-pump-and-dump-schemes-study-shows/"}],"summary":"The name \"acme\" is ambiguous, and searches found no reliable reporting of fraud, enforcement action, hack or litigation tied to any crypto entity of that name. The only crypto-related entity identified is \"Acme Crypto\", which describes itself on Medium as a group of microcap researchers. That is a self-description only (Tier 3), and its claims could not be independently verified. The score is a neutral placeholder reflecting insufficient information, not an assessment of trustworthiness.","timeline":[]},"v":1}
