ZachXBT Fake War Posts Crypto Scam Network

Summary

In March 2026, on-chain investigator ZachXBT publicly exposed a coordinated network of more than ten purchased X (Twitter) accounts that posted fabricated or exaggerated war and geopolitical content to build large audiences, then pivoted to promoting crypto giveaway scams and at least one pump-and-dump token. All identified accounts blocked ZachXBT within hours of the thread's publication, which he said suggested single-operator control. No law enforcement or regulatory action against the network has been confirmed in available reporting as of this writing; the underlying playbook is considered reusable under new account identities.
