I investigated Mr. Beast, who was recently accused of making $23 million with insider trading and scams.

I wanted to know the full story, so I reached out to everyone, from researchers to crypto projects, even to Mr. Beast himself.

And let me say, the story is more complicated than you think.

I want to be clear, what Mr. Beast did, what his team did, is shady.

But what we care about is, did he cross that bright red line from shady to illegal scam?

And contrary to what

Twitter says, I don't think that's an easy answer.

Instead, I think the answer will depend on you.

If you love Mr. Beast, there will be an explanation at every turn and a scapegoat.

But if you hate Mr. Beast, what I'm about to show you will seem unethical and like a clear abuse of fame for money.

So already this story is difficult, but I want to make you aware of two more things which matter.

First, I have gone to Mr. Beast's team to try to fact check this story extensively,

and they declined to fact check or comment on my many questions.

Instead, they gave me a statement, which we will get to.

Secondly, I have a bit of history with Mr. Beast.

I interviewed and spoke positively about him in the past,

but also his new co -founder is suing me and his other co -founder threatened to sue me.

So you can make of that what you will.

As always, I just want to let you know where I'm coming from

and I've tried to get all sides of the story.

We're going to start with the major allegations against Mr. Beast and build on those.

They come from two sources.

Firstly, an investigation by Soma XBT, which claims Mr. Beast made $10 million by backing low cap crypto tokens, which are down 90%.

And the second investigation comes from a group of five people who investigated Mr. Beast and found $23 million in profits from,

quote, scams, shady deals, and his network.

Now, there are a lot of crypto projects they go over.

And I want to be clear.

Some of these allegations I agree are bad.

Others I think are actually worse than have been reported.

And still other allegations I simply disagree with them on.

So we're going to start with what I don't agree with.

According to the report, Polychain Monsters, or PMON, is a project which KSI promoted heavily.

Mr. Beast did not.

But Mr. Beast did get in the presale and make a lot of money.

And thus, the conclusion is made, it's highly likely Mr. Beast made an investment from that insider information of KSI's promotional deal.

But there's simply no evidence provided of this.

I have the same thoughts about Jigstack, another coin which KSI promoted.

And the conclusion is, though Mr. Beast did not officially follow Jigstack,

in his network, KSI was involved in promoting Jigstack from this information Mr. Beast invested and made a large return.

Here again, there isn't concrete proof.

Now I asked the team who wrote this piece and the lead author, Casper Vandalook, told me, quote,

having known Mr. Beast's having a very strong connection with KSI, it's basically highly probable he was vested as a result of KSI.

No concrete evidence, just going off probabilities.

But I'm going to say I don't agree with that and I'm going to toss those probabilities aside.

I think they reached too far.

Instead, I'm going to stick with what we can prove happened.

Luckily, the biggest claims in this report, the biggest moneymakers, are much better supported by evidence.

Starting with Super.

This is the project Mr. Beast is alleged to have made the most amount of money on,

over $10 million based on a pre -sale of $100 ,000.

As for evidence, we have leaked screenshots showing Mr. Beast telling

Super's founder that he can do $100K.

Then we have a wallet that both investigations trace to Mr. Beast sending $100K to the pre -sale wallet.

And then we have the same wallets getting millions of these

Super tokens in a period of unlocks, which were almost all sold aggressively.

Now, why is this bad?

Well, Mr. Beast is obviously hugely influential, and he publicly associated himself with the project twice.

Once on March 3rd, 2021, he responded to a tweet with eyeball emojis, and then he interacted a second time on May 12th, 2021.

This is much worse.

The founder, Elio Trades, had tweeted,

there's a gym sitting there on the market at eye -watering prices set to explode during the DeFi Summer 2 .0.

Mr. Beast responds, super.

But what he doesn't say is that he'd already purchased a huge stake in super at this point.

And on the day that he's tweeting, he was selling tokens, allegedly.

Not only that, he had been selling tokens and continued to sell tokens.

In the 72 hours after the May 12th tweet, Mr. Beast sold about $200 ,000 worth of these tokens.

And remember the context.

He's responding to the founder of the coin discussing a gym at eye -watering prices that's going to explode during the summer.

And Mr. Beast's response is the coin he's selling.

So publicly, it's signaling, hey, Super is this undervalued coin, and privately, Mr. Beast allegedly sold.

Now, I ran these wallets by Mr. Beast, as well as the accusation, but I didn't get a reply.

Instead, I got a heavily lawyered statement.

from a spokesman who I'm going to warn you is about to complicate things.

Quote, these investments were made and managed in consultation with industry experts to ensure full compliance with all appropriate rules and regulations.

The wallet is not owned or managed by Jimmy, but rather a fund led by respected and sophisticated managers.

The fund closely evaluated and scrutinized hundreds and hundreds of opportunities, which resulted in several investments.

Some have been more successful, others less, and others still works in progress.

The fund's investment strategies apply the same rigorous standards as many other experienced investors in the field.

Now, I have a lot of questions,

but the big thing is Jimmy denies doing any of the trading or managing the trading and blames it on a fund.

So I asked some obvious follow -up questions.

What is the name of this fund?

Who are the industry experts?

And what rules and regulations were followed that allowed you to tweet about a coin while your fund is selling.

I didn't get a response.

It's worth mentioning the spokesman is Matthew Hiltzik, a well -known crisis management consultant.

Thankfully, online, there still are a number of clues we can follow to try to find the right person for this fund.

The reason most people link Mr. Beast to this wallet

we've been tracking is mostly based on a tweet by Mr. Beast saying he bought a specific CryptoPunk,

which belonged to an account which goes by Wu -Tang Clan.

People assumed, understandably, that this was Mr. Beast's wallet.

But what is lesser known is that another account has also tweeted about CryptoPunks

and has the same ties back to Wu -Tang Clan, a guy named Jason Williams.

He's followed by Mr. Beast on Twitter, and he's the author of a book on Bitcoin.

So he's a crypto guy.

And I found Jason tweeting about another CryptoPunks saying, I hope you enjoy your new home sold for 100 ETH.

That sale he's talking about links back to the same address Mr. Beast does, Wu -Tang Clan.

On YouTube, there's even more clues.

Jason can be seen surfing wearing a Wu -Tang Clan shirt, and his brand name, Going Parabolic,

100

happens to be owned by the same Mr. Beast wallet, goingparabolic .eth.

101

So there's very good evidence that Jason Williams was also involved in this same wallet,

102

which means that it might be true that Mr. Beast wasn't the guy buying or selling,

103

which would be good for Mr. Beast and bad for these investigations.

104

But just when I thought Mr. Beast might have no say in what this wallet did, I saw this podcast with Logan Paul,

105

where Jimmy discusses crypto punks once again, and things get complicated.

106

p .m just out of nowhere just calls me

107

and he's like yo

108

i got like 30 people to call hop in i'm like

109

i don't give i don't care he's like it'll be the

110

best decision of your life just get in yeah okay yeah

111

and so i just joined the call and i just see like logan

112

and i i don't even know these other people

113

i don't put them on blast every heavy hitter

114

you can imagine who's worth a billion dollars was on this one call

115

and gary v is in the little corner the little square he's he's going crypto punks

116

It's gonna be huge.

117

It's gonna be the next Facebook.

118

All of us were like, okay, Gary.

119

I'm texting Logan.

120

Is this legit?

121

For all of us, we're like, yo, Gary's nuts.

122

Yo, Gary was right again.

123

I bought a bunch.

124

Wait, wait, wait.

125

Yeah, I bought quite a few.

126

How many?

127

I don't want to say, but I bought multiple ones.

128

Well, bro, are you double digits, punks?

129

Double, just shy.

130

Huh.

131

Well, this clip is very interesting

132

because Jimmy said he made the decision to get CryptoPunks based on a call with Gary V.

133

But those punks are owned by the wallet we just said was controlled by Jason.

134

So it appears sometimes Mr. Beast is telling Jason what to buy for this fund.

135

Mr. Beast then later talks about selling these CryptoPunks and rolling the money into a new project.

136

And once again, it sounds like he's in charge.

137

Well, I've already sold quite a few of them.

138

What?

139

I bought a bunch of, so that I'm rolled the money into VFriends.

140

Cause I, Gary, same thing called me.

141

He's like VFriends.

142

I was like, I don't know, but last time I made money.

143

Sure, sure.

144

I'll be honest.

145

These clips to me make it difficult to assume Mr. Beast had no idea what's going on.

146

He talks about CryptoPunks and VFriends like personal investments.

147

And on Twitter, he says that not only he bought CryptoPunks, he also tweets about loading up on VFriends.

148

But again, I have to say, it is also abundantly clear Jason Williams was involved.

149

He says, hey, Gary, thanks for the VFriends gift goat.

150

It was a gift from Gary to MrBeast.

151

I'm very thankful for it.

152

He didn't have to send anything.

153

So once again, Jason Williams appears to be involved

154

and have something to do with the trading or management of MrBeast's crypto wallet.

155

But we know MrBeast made some of the decisions.

156

So of course, I asked MrBeast to explain himself.

157

if he had any say over the trading.

158

But once again, there's no response.

159

So now I want to turn back to Super.

160

We know from leaked DMs that MrBeast and not Jason set up this presale, and we know that MrBeast made the tweet.

161

So now we have to guess.

162

Here's what we know.

163

We know MrBeast set up the presale according to leaked screenshots.

164

We know MrBeast made the tweet, but we don't know whether it was Jason doing the trading of Super or if he was doing the trading,

165

did Mr. Beast know about it?

166

Did Jason know about the tweet?

167

These are the questions that ultimately matter.

168

And yes, I reached out to Jason Williams for a comment.

169

He didn't reply.

170

I did, however, get a hold of Elio Trades, who is the founder of Super,

171

and he insisted that Mr. Beast's tweet was not a part of a deal for promotion.

172

But you should know he also mentions how upset he was with how pre -sale investors sold their tokens,

173

saying most of them sold, including Mr. Beast.

174

So those are the facts.

175

Mr. Beast gets involved in a pre -sale, for some reason tweets at this project twice, one time on the day his fund is selling tokens,

176

where he seems to imply that they're undervalued.

177

In total, he's alleged to have made $11 million with this deal, according to the report.

178

So yeah, that's really bad.

179

Now we're going to turn to another allegation, which is about EARN or ETHERNITY chain.

180

There are some facts which are the same.

181

There are others that are different.

182

For example, instead of Mr. Beast setting up the deal directly, the team at EARN claims they never spoke to Mr. Beast.

183

Quote, we were speaking to his fund manager.

184

And when I asked about these wallets selling allegedly over $4 million in tokens,

185

they say, quote, Mr. Beast's fund was an early investor in our pre -sale.

186

He had the same unlock schedule as everyone else.

187

Were we happy with the way he sold?

188

Definitely not.

189

But legally, there was nothing we could have done.

190

And then, just like with Super, they claim they didn't ask for a promotion of the project,

191

but that Mr. Beast decided to comment once himself anyways.

192

On March 9th, 2021, Mr. Beast responds to Eternity Chain saying, this one will be hype.

193

It's worth noting, once again, about 24 hours before saying this, This fund wallet purchased over $100 ,000 of Earn tokens in addition to the presale.

194

Now, what is different about Super is that Mr. Beast's name was put publicly on the Eternity Chain website.

195

On their investors and partners page, you might be asking, well, which is it?

196

Is he an investor or a partner?

197

And the answer is both.

198

He got into the presale and the Earn team also claims that he partnered with them for an NFT drop drop.

199

Supposedly, it was a charity drop and a normal NFT drop.

200

Now, the charity drop specifically did happen in association with one of Mr. Beast's projects,

201

Team Seas, saying, quote, all proceeds will go towards cleaning up the seas around the world.

202

This was early November 2021.

203

Then the official

204

Team Seas account posted on November 3rd, 2021, quote, what an awesome crypto collaboration in support of the team.

205

Then the CEO of Athernity chain

206

Nick Rose confirms in Telegram that the drop is supported by Mr. Beast, saying Earn and ETH tokens will be accepted for the charity auction,

207

which was slated to last two months.

208

Now, the reason I'm sharing all of this is because one month into this two month charity auction on November 30th,

209

2021, the Rocket Fund or Beast Fund or whatever you want to call it, start selling huge amounts of this Earn token.

210

Allegedly, they sold over $2 million, while the charity itself was still going on.

211

Now, I know that sounds horrible.

212

It looks horrible.

213

It is horrible.

214

Although I have to tell you, personally, I don't think this was a master plan to pump a coin with a charity auction.

215

If it was the plan, it was a bad one because the NFT auction was ultimately a flop.

216

But do I also think it doesn't matter because regardless of your intentions,

217

selling tokens within a month of your two -month charity auction is wrong, stupid, and unethical?

218

Yes, yes, I think that as well.

219

Because in case you forgot, Mr. Beast is the charity guy whose name is on the website.

220

It isn't a fund.

221

It isn't a crypto rocket fund.

222

It's Mr. Beast's branding.

223

I even asked the Earn team about this saying, quote, why did y 'all list Mr. Beast instead of rocket fund in your partner's investors.

224

Was that discussed?

225

They say, quote, we listed him, Mr. Beast, as a partner and, quote, yes, they accepted that.

226

So according to the earned team, Mr. Beast knew or should have known that his name was on the line for this investment and partnership.

227

And yet this fund, his fund, whatever you want to call it, sold tokens one month.

228

after starting a two -month NFT auction for charity.

229

To be fair again, though, it's hard to oversell how bad this NFT auction did.

230

I have found only one NFT that appears to have sold here, but the bids were made in the Earn token, which the fund was selling,

231

and the actual sale of the NFT didn't happen until after the fund sold in November 30th.

232

The transfer happened in December 23rd.

233

So of course, I went to MrBeast directly to answer this and see if there was some more context they could provide.

234

There was no response other than the statement we've already read from Mr. Beast that he did not control the trading.

235

Although again, that isn't a really satisfying answer

236

because we've established Mr. Beast would sometimes direct what to buy and sell to this fund like CryptoPunks.

237

Personally, like I said, I don't think this was a pre -planned scheme, but regardless of intentions, if you're the charity guy,

238

you support a charity, it flops while your fund makes millions of dollars in profits

239

because it's selling the same earned token people could bid on the charity with?

240

That just is awful.

241

And you should feel awful about it.

242

Look, now I want to move on from that to talking about our final token, XCAD.

243

This is a token you may remember from our investigation into MrBeast's business partner, KSI.

244

But unlike KSI, MrBeast was not promoting it a lot on Twitter.

245

In fact, the only reason we know Mr. Beast was in the presale is

246

that there were several articles about it bragging about that fact.

247

Once again, Mr. Beast's name was used to promote this instead of the fund itself.

248

And internally to investors, I have to say this built up a lot of excitement, not just because Mr. Beast is a huge name,

249

but because XCAD had what's called creator tokens.

250

So the idea to some investors is that, well, if they're investing, MrBeast and KSI, what if they were ever to launch greater tokens?

251

That would be massive.

252

And I bring this up because some people might ask, like, what do these affiliations, how do they impact people buying these projects?

253

And the answer from what I've seen is they actually do impact it quite a lot

254

because people are anticipating like further involvement and also the ideas like they must not be investing unless they're long -term holders.

255

You can see this in the telegram chat, it became so common that in the XCAD community, one of the admins says,

256

here we go again, another community member asking if there's any possibility of a Mr. Beast KSI token.

257

And meanwhile, by the way, as that's happening, as the investors are hoping for these creator tokens and that they're imminent behind the scenes,

258

something entirely different had been happening.

259

Like with Super and Earn, Mr. Beast's fund sold a lot of their XCAD early in 2021 rather than holding their tokens.

260

And this was surprising to even the founder of XCAD himself, Oliver Bell, who said they told him they were going to do the opposite.

261

He tells me, quote, hey, so Mr. Beast reached out to me during our pre -sale raise.

262

A group was set up with his team

263

and we had a call with his team and they said they liked the concept.

264

There was no strings attached to the investment.

265

They did, however, want a lot bigger ticket than what I offered them, which I'm glad I did not fulfill.

266

We discussed not just flipping this token as this can damage projects if people have decent sized tickets.

267

It was my understanding we were aligned on this.

268

However, after listing to which XCAD performed well, there was heavy dumping from a wallet linked to Mr. Beast's team.

269

I got in contact with them immediately and asked them why they were selling like this.

270

Now, Oliver later claims this discussion about flipping tokens and them being aligned about the in fact,

271

they're not going to flip these tokens so quickly was with Jason.

272

And apparently Oliver was so upset about what happened.

273

He DMed Jimmy directly, quote, explaining his team will ruin his reputation.

274

And look, sorry to be a broken record.

275

But yes, I reached out to Jimmy about this, too.

276

And once again, there was no reply besides the statement we read earlier.

277

It's worth mentioning that I asked Oliver for proof of this message about ruining relationships

278

and he said the message had been deleted on Telegram.

279

So who you believe here is up to you.

280

Oliver also says, quote, I don't think

281

Jimmy has a bad heart or is a bad person.

282

I think he has genuine interest in the crypto space, but I think the team that handles his crypto is completely clueless.

283

And here on this last point, I have to disagree with Oliver.

284

I don't think that

285

Jimmy's crypto team is clueless.

286

I think they saw an opportunity to make millions of dollars with Mr. Beast's valuable brand

287

and they took it and they did make millions of dollars.

288

And along the way, they did some things that were shady.

289

Whether or not you think they were also illegal is probably going to be shaped by our unanswered questions

290

and where you fill in those gaps.

291

For example, do you think Mr. Beast knew about the selling that was going on May 12th for the super token?

292

Why did he make that tweet?

293

And then do you think Mr. Beast knew about the charity auction and the selling that was happening on November 30th?

294

And do you think Oliver Bell DM'd Mr. Beast and told him his crypto team would ruin his reputation?

295

And if so, was that ignored?

296

I hate to leave so many unanswered questions here, but I warned you, this was a complicated story.

297

And a big part of the problem is the guy at the center of this story cannot

298

or will not give more than a heavily lawyered statement through a spokesman who's a crisis management consultant.

299

And let me just say, it's also frustrating that this statement takes zero accountability.

300

Despite the fact Mr. Beast's team knew every major allegation that we're laying out here today,

301

there is no mention of selling while Mr. Beast was tweeting about Supertoken.

302

There's no mention of them selling tokens a month after they partnered with a two -month charity auction.

303

And because of that, this statement feels very hollow.

304

I think to Mr. Beast and probably to his fund, maybe this is just business.

305

You know, they set out to make a lot of money and they made a lot of money.

306

What's the problem, right?

307

This is America.

308

They might think this is the biggest Mr. Beast nothing burger since Mr. Beast burger.

309

But look, honestly, I'd agree with them if they had done this crypto stuff without using Mr. Beast's name.

310

But they want to have their cake and eat it too.

311

This fund trades on Mr. Beast's name.

312

As we've seen, they get in pre -sales based on his name.

313

He tweets from his public account.

314

And they're putting his name publicly on projects websites instead of a fund.

315

But when things go south, suddenly, oh, Mr. Beast, what?

316

No, no liability just because he's not sitting there physically pressing the buttons.

317

I don't think that's the way it works.

318

Look, I want to close with the final part of this CryptoPunks podcast we showed you earlier,

319

because in many ways, I think it's a microcosm of this story.

320

Obviously, I have to say I'm not making any comments or judgments about the guy who's suing me, who's also in this clip.

321

That's just coincidence.

322

I am only talking about Mr. Beast's reaction because as Mr. Beast is talking about Gary V's great CryptoPunks call.

323

There's a moment when the co -host says, hey, maybe instead of Gary V being a genius,

324

maybe it's just the call itself that makes the market.

325

And Mr. Beast kind of defends it.

326

He says, no, that was in February.

327

CryptoPunks didn't pop until the summer.

328

And I never talked about CryptoPunks until this very moment.

329

Can I ask you guys a question?

330

When Gary does that call with all these billionaires and eight months or a year later, everybody's like, Gary was right again.

331

Yeah.

332

Is it possible that he's right because of the call?

333

Do you know what I'm saying?

334

I think about that a lot.

335

Like, dude, he has all these billionaire market makers in the thing.

336

He makes the call, makes the market.

337

By the way, you look around at all the punk owners a year later and you're like,

338

damn, it's all the same mother because they were on the call.

339

No, because, bro, there's 10 ,000 punks and there's only like 30 of us in the call.

340

We can only own and do so much.

341

There's still an entire market that's going to happen regardless.

342

I can tell you I don't think why, because that was all back like early February.

343

But like the things didn't pop off till later and every like NFT project was popping off, not just punks.

344

I mean, I mean, make no mistake, like having such influential people involved in projects,

345

it's not, it can't hurt the ability for the project to work.

346

95 % of those people didn't even mention it.

347

You know what I mean?

348

I've never talked about it publicly.

349

Yeah, but that last part isn't quite true.

350

The reason we're all here is Mr. Beast tweeted about CryptoPunks the same day he bought them back in February of 2021.

351

That's how we found his wallet, even though we now know someone else was involved too.

352

And I would apply the same level of scrutiny to many of the investments we've talked about.

353

Was it the genius of Jason Williams, Mr. Beast, or this fund that made them tens of millions of dollars?

354

Maybe.

355

Or was it the fact that the name they brought to the table was Mr. Beast,

356

one of the most influential and valuable brands in the world?

357

And that's what got them the great deals.

358

That's what got them a bunch of eyeballs.

359

That's what made it so valuable to have his name on these websites and maybe that's what made the market.

360

Ultimately, I think it's for you to decide.

Произношение, на которое стоит обратить внимание

Говорящий использует 78 сокращённых и редуцированных форм, например don't, I'm, didn't. Произносите их коротко, так, как слышите.

Звуки «th»: threaten /ˈθɹɛt.n̩/, thankful /ˈθæŋkfəl/, unethical /ʌnˈɛθɪkəl/
Звуки «sh» и «zh»: auction /ˈɔkʃən/, allegation /ˌæl.ɪˈɡeɪ.ʃən/, shady /ˈʃeɪdi/, influential /ɪnflʊˈɛnʃəl/, reputation /ˌɹɛpjʊˈteɪʃən/
Длинные слова — следите за ударением: allegation /ˌæl.ɪˈɡeɪ.ʃən/, allegedly /əˈlɛdʒ.ɪd.li/, complicated /ˈkɑm.plɪˌkeɪ.tɪd/, influential /ɪnflʊˈɛnʃəl/, reputation /ˌɹɛpjʊˈteɪʃən/

Звуки, трудные для русскоязычных:

/w/ — губы округлены, это не /v/: tweet /ˈtwiːt/, wallet /ˈwɑl.ət/, warn /woɹn/, meanwhile /ˈmiːnwaɪl/, nowhere /ˈnoʊ.(h)wɛɹ/
/h/ — лёгкий выдох, а не русское «х»: horrible /ˈhɔɹ.ɪ.bəl/, nowhere /ˈnoʊ.(h)wɛɹ/, holder /ˈhoʊɫdɚ/, hype /haɪp/, hollow /ˈhɑloʊ/
Звонкие согласные в конце слова — не оглушайте их: complicated /ˈkɑm.plɪˌkeɪ.tɪd/, intentions /ɪnˈtɛnʃənz/, explode /ɪkˈsploʊd/, defend /dɪˈfɪnd/, bid /bɪd/

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
