Community users reveal they were approached and asked to post negative comments about a certain exchange

On January 28, it was reported that a user from the crypto community recently posted that they had been contacted by a third party via instant messaging a few weeks ago. The third party offered to pay them to continuously publish negative content targeting a certain exchange and its related ecosystem. The user stated that such approaches are not isolated incidents and believes that the recent concentrated public opinion against a certain exchange coincides with these behaviors in terms of timing. It is possible that some individuals have accepted such offers, or that new accounts have been created specifically to manipulate public opinion.
