On Feb. 12 we learned quite a bit about the anon behind the Twitter account @crypto888crypto. I think it’s best if you read for yourself from various sources who took a deep dive into his past. The consensus seems to be that 888 is launching a cash grab…..each NFT is gonna cost 11.11 ETH, with a dutch auction ending at 8.88 ETH. Looks like a cash grab to me.
John highlighted this fact in his tweet:

“Not cool: asking 62 million USD + the burning of the inner circle memberships that count for a few million as well. There's no way to justify this amount. They are 100% trying to cash in on their 'popularity' by extracting as much $$ out of their followers as possible.”
For starters, we learned that 888 likes to buy $5 nudes, and is apparently ashamed of this because he tried to scrub his accounts of these encounters on social media. Luckily someone screenshotted them: https://twitter.com/stellabelle/status/1492959370359058435
It was not buying the $5 nudes that I found gross (well it seems overly cheap imo), it was the attempt to cover it all up that I found hilarious. If you do something, do it transparently and be proud, make a joke of urself instead of trying to cover it up. Touting yourself as an “art angel” and then buying $5 nudes is well, hilarious and sort of pathetic.
And from NFT Ethics, they did a thread on 888:
“He has been well known to harass women on Twitter and there are many more stories. His whole "team" consisted of women, but many of them have left. It's quite clear why.”
