On-chain investigator ZachXBT alleged that meme coin promoter Murad Mahmudov is promoting microcap meme coins while controlling their supply.<\/p>\n

In an Oct. 9 post<\/a> on X, ZachXBT identified 11 Ethereum and Solana wallets he said are linked to Mahmudov, which collectively hold over $24 million in assets, raising concerns about transparency and potential conflicts of interest in his promotional activities.<\/p>\n

“Murad is promoting microcap <\/span>meme coins<\/span><\/a> to thousands and thousands of followers while controlling the supply and making very lofty predictions,” ZachXBT said<\/span>. “People deserve to know the wallets so they can make informed decisions.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Mahmudov, who has almost 217k followers on X, was CIO at crypto hedge fund Adaptive Capital before its collapse in 2020, and has since become a prominent meme coin influencer.<\/p>\n

Murad Mahmudov Wallets Identified By ZachXBT Share Same Funding Source <\/span><\/h2>\n

ZachXBT said that he is very confident that the wallets he identified belong to Mahmudov because they “were funded from the same source on Ethereum.” <\/span><\/p>\n

2\/2 Why do I say these 11 wallets belong to Murad.<\/p>\n

1) All wallets were funded from the same source on Ethereum <\/p>\n
