I'll host a Twitter space later today (@rpnickson) to chat about safety, security and scams in the NFT space. Please educate yourself on what to look out for. Let's all protect each other as a community.

Imagine I continued this? We could have gotten to 50k followers in a few days. Driven all the hype in the world. Made $10M, $20M+ It's so, so easy Be careful where you invest your hard-earned money.

The purpose of this Twitter experiment was to drive education to the masses. I'd rather you "falling for" Kapetta to learn a valuable lesson, than you falling for an actual scam.

Every day I see friends & family lose their hard-earned ETH to these grifters. There are tens of millions of dollars of liquidity being sucked out of the market every day using this technique.

Please approach this space carefully. There are bad-actors and scammers everywhere. That project you see pop up on Twitter with anonymous founders, advertising prominent artists and other too-good-to-be-true things? Please, be cautious. I implore you.

In just a few hours, I was able to amass over 2.5K followers, and high engagement numbers like you see in the image below. I could have done this anonymously, set up a minting site in 15 minutes, and taken $2M worth of your hard-earned funds. All in a day's work.

There are hundreds (maybe thousands) of "projects" just like Kapetta that are popping up daily. These "projects" use engagement farming and hype mechanics, just like you saw used on this Twitter.
