#ZachXBT is probably world's greatest crypto detective. He's pro-crypto but has busted a *ton* of frauds and scams.

Recently he's been working on tracking #NorthKorea's massive money laundering operation in the wake of the #Bybit hack and seems to have concluded that the entire crypto industry is fucked (which some of us have known all along).
