Uptober memecoin team accuses influencer Jaypeg of promotional scamThe Uptober memecoin team has accused popular crypto influencer Jaypeg of running a promotional scheme, alleging that he received tokens to promote the project, sold them for profit, and later denied ever receiving the funds. According to the team and members of their Telegram group, they reached an agreement with Jaypeg, offering him 2% of Uptober’s token supply, worth about $2,200, in exchange for promoting the memecoin. To investigate the issue, the team reached out to blockchain detective ZackXBT, who provided evidence contradicting Jaypeg’s statements. ZackXBT revealed that the address used to receive the $2,200 in Uptober tokens matched an address associated with a Solana airdrop, which Jaypeg referenced in a Solana Saga unboxing video earlier this year. He further claimed that the Uptober team attempted to blackmail him and has since apologized publicly, stating that he donated the funds to charity.
