Huang a.k.a Machi Big Brother is accusing ZachXBT of perpetrating a scandalous article, which spread like wildfire, shamelessly depicting him as a crypto-criminal mastermind who pilfered millions and played puppeteer with the markets. Not only that, but when Huang politely asked ZachXBT to take down the post and accompanying tweet, the audacious sleuth brazenly refused!
The infamous article in question, titled “22,000 ETH Vanished and Ten Projects Went Kaput: The Untold Saga of Machi Big Brother (Jeff Huang),” was dropped like a bomb about one year ago, on June 16, 2022. ZachXBT had the nerve to claim that Huang, a Taiwanese-American entrepreneur and former rockstar, siphoned off a mind-boggling 22,000 ETH ($37 million) from the treasury management platform Formosa Financial back in 2018. Oh, the audacity!
Taking this battle public, Huang took to Twitter to rally his (not so) loyal followers and announce his epic legal counterstrike: “I have staunchly denied the bogus allegations in his article,” he defiantly declared. “I eagerly anticipate proving in court that @ZachXBT recklessly slandered my good name!” Well, he said that in so many words.
ZachXBT, renowned for his daring exposés on Web3 scams and his knack for tracing the twists and turns of crypto cash, wasn’t about to back down without a fight. With fire in his virtual veins, he boldly retaliated: “Can you believe it, folks? MachiBigBrother is trying to sue me for an article I wrote in June 2022,” he confessed with a hint of mischief. “Today, Machi unleashed his defamation lawsuit. Utterly baseless, folks. He’s just trying to stifle my freedom of speech. Well, I won’t stand for it! Prepare for battle!”
1/ It’s unfortunate I have to make this thread but I am being sued by MachiBigBrother for an article I published in June 2022.
Today Machi filed the defamation lawsuit. The lawsuit is baseless and an attempt to chill free speech. I intend to fight back & defend free speech. pic.twitter.com/anVY6zXU5a

But wait, there’s more! This courtroom brawl has become the talk of the town, captivating the hearts and wallets of crypto enthusiasts worldwide. In a stunning twist of fate, Huang, known for his wheeling and dealing in the NFT realm, has been accused of wielding so much financial power that he can manipulate the entire crypto art market!
Seeing an opportunity to stick it to the man and defend their champion of free speech, ZachXBT’s followers have rallied to his aid. With fervor in their hearts and ETH in their virtual wallets, they are raised funds to ensure this legal showdown doesn’t end in financial obliteration for their fearless internet hero. Talk about a battle of attrition!
ZachXBT wasted no time calling for reinforcements, urging his loyal supporters to donate ETH to a provided address. And boy, did the crypto community respond! In the blink of an eye, generous donations poured in like a digital tidal wave. Even Memeland, the Web3 venture studio associated with the legendary internet meme empire 9GAG, unleashed a thunderous donation of 6.9 ETH (around $12,000) to the cause. And there was way way waaaaaaay more! Just read the comments here.
Get ready for the Web3 trial of the century, folks! This is not just about defamation or free speech—it’s a battle that will shape the future of the internet as we know it. Will Machi Big Brother emerge victorious, or will ZachXBT’s wit and tenacity triumph against all odds? Stay tuned for the next chapter in this electrifying saga!
In the mean time, if you want to have some fun, read the comments under these Tweets LFMAO!
In June 2022, @zachxbt published a post that stated I embezzled. He was wrong and did not have the receipts.
I sincerely tried my best to resolve this. Legal action was a last resort.
Crypto Twitter has already judged me. Only in a court of law will I get a fair trial.— Machi Big Brother (@machibigbrother) June 19, 2023
I was only expecting an apology. Any monetary compensation I receive, I’ll donate to charity.
