FaZe Banks’ Crypto Chaos: Backdoor Deals, Dumping, and Drama 😱

Oh, what a tangled web we weave when influencers dabble in crypto! Leaked messages have surfaced showing none other than FaZe Banks—yes, *the* Ricky “Faze” Banks—pressuring the MLG team into giving him preferential treatment. Preferential? More like preposterous. 🤔

  • Influencer Ricky “Faze” Banks is now accused of dumping the MLG token faster than you can say “to the moon.” 🌕➡️🌍
  • Leaked texts reveal his relentless pressure tactics on the poor souls at MLG HQ.
  • Meanwhile, the MLG token has plummeted 93% from its all-time high. Ouch. 💸📉

Ah, but let us rewind to Wednesday, July 31st (or should I say Black Wednesday?), when these incriminating texts came to light. It seems our dear Ricky Bengston, aka FaZe Banks, was busy orchestrating an off-market discount party for himself, Aydin Ross, and another investor. Naturally, he wasn’t interested in paying market price—who does that anymore? Instead, he demanded special treatment. And when denied? Well, threats ensued. Because nothing says loyalty like blackmailing your way out of a bad deal. 😈

But wait, there’s more! The leaks also revealed that FaZe held a mere 0.6% of the token supply—a drop in the ocean—and yet he yearned for at least 1%. How modest! Of course, this directly contradicts his earlier claims that MLG was some noble passion project untainted by greed. Passion project? Ha! Try profit project. 🤑

It appears FaZe Banks had grand plans: buy big without moving the market, all while hyping up unsuspecting followers with promises of gaming nostalgia and internet fame. Classic pump-and-dump scheme, folks. Truly artistic in its audacity. Bravo, sir. 👏🔥

MLG Token Dump Costs Users Up to $150 Million 🚀💸

Let us not forget how this fiasco began—in October 2024, when FaZe Banks decided to bless Twitter with tweets promoting the infamous 360noscope420blazeit (MLG) memecoin. Oh, how those tweets sent the token soaring to over $150 million in market cap before crashing spectacularly to just $10 million. A true rollercoaster ride—one where everyone lost their lunch money except Mr. Banks, it seems. 🎢

Based on gaming culture, MLG partnered with influencers like FaZe Banks and Aydin Ross, both beloved among gamers. Their audience ate it up, seeing the coin as a nostalgic nod to their youth. Alas, nostalgia doesn’t pay the bills. On July 28, amid growing scrutiny, FaZe Banks stepped down as CEO of FaZe Clan gaming. Perhaps retirement will suit him better? Or perhaps not. 🎮💔
