A KOL was showing off a profit screenshot in the group, and I took a closer look and felt something was off. At 23:09, the Ethereum price was fluctuating between 3007 and 3015, but this guy's marked position price showed 2984.94—clearly inconsistent.

I didn't confront him directly; instead, I asked customer service. They replied that the price was indeed the market price from the simulated trading platform. That pretty much confirmed it.

Interestingly, this KOL started to defend himself, saying that it's normal for the mark price to differ from the index price. Later, perhaps feeling less confident, he deleted the post. Then he posted on Twitter claiming that he was just practicing with a simulated account, so he wouldn't risk real money.

Honestly, this kind of operation is really outrageous. Practicing with a simulated account is understandable, but showing off simulated results in the group and outright denying it is a bit much. Don't follow the hype with coins like RAVE; you should rely on your own judgment.

Haha, this move is brilliant. Showing off simulated trading results, and the speed of deleting posts is also top-notch.

This guy is really something. He’s proud enough to show off his simulated trading results, then deletes the post and changes his tune. It’s hilarious. --- The price mismatch is obvious at a glance. Still daring to argue? That mindset must be pretty insecure. --- Honestly, don’t trust these people’s screenshots. Keep an eye on your own trading; don’t get led astray. --- Practicing with a simulated account is fine, but using it to deceive others is crossing the line. I don’t follow such KOLs. --- I just want to know how he deletes posts so quickly. Is he afraid of being screenshot or just feeling guilty?

Wow, this is so outrageous. Deleting posts and reposting on Twitter is truly unbelievable and completely indefensible.

Haha, it's the same old trick, I'm already tired of it. Deleting posts and then changing your tune is a slick move, but unfortunately, it still got caught. Fake trading simulations that are incredibly realistic, using virtual funds to scam real money, are just outrageous. When the price doesn't match, they just tough it out, which shows they have some skills. But honestly, these KOLs are just like that; anyway, someone always believes them. Coins like these that soar along with boastful people usually don't end well. Better to stay calm and watch. Bragging about simulated trading results is really impressive. If they really made that much money, why are they so eager to boast in the group? The move to delete posts definitely indicates they are feeling extremely guilty behind the scenes.

Another one who treats a demo account as real money to show off, hilarious, and still dares to argue.

Ha, it's another classic fake screenshot trick, I really can't take it anymore. --- Deleting posts to admit defeat is the best way to show the problem; this move is truly textbook. --- It's also shameless to show off a simulated account; luckily, someone was serious enough to ask customer service. --- I just love to see the chaos after being exposed, the way they scramble to make up stories. --- If this keeps up, who can you trust, even KOLs? Everyone's just jumping on the bandwagon and ruining it. --- Marking the price difference so big and still resisting, they really think we're fools. --- I directly block such people; it's a waste of time. --- That's why you need to do your own research and not wait to get chopped up by the leek. --- Let's put RAVE aside for now; this guy's credibility is already bankrupt.
