ZachXBT research found Blue responsible for stealing millions of dollars in digital assets using sophisticated phishing attacks. Blue started as a gamer and prank content creator on his YouTube channel in 2020 before involving himself in crypto scams in 2021.

Earlier this week, ZachXBT exposed another crypto and NFT scammer, Soup, aka Dan, who allegedly stole over $1 million through phishing scams. The scammer targeted Decentralized Finance (DeFi) projects like Orbiter Finance and Pika Protocol.
