The Bureau is offering up to 1,000,000 $MBI for verified, on-chain information regarding insider-trading allegations, paid promotional patterns, and the public accountability of Threadguy.
Threadguy operates one of Crypto Twitter's most-watched livestream podcasts. His interview with Andrew Tate accumulated approximately 8.8 million views on X and 1.24 million on YouTube. Following the LIBRA collapse he removed his profile picture from X. He has publicly admitted that his content trajectory shifted from interviewing project founders and developers into "fully committed to and even promoted this meme coin casino."
On February 14, 2025, during a livestream hosted by Threadguy, he stated there had been "rumblings" and "whispers" about an Argentina-related token launch. During the same stream, fellow "LA Vape Cabal" member Faze Banks called in to say "I got in really, really early. I was like up $300K and fucking luckily..." before Threadguy muted the stream and covered his mouth for nearly 30 seconds. After the LIBRA collapse generated ~$251M in investor losses, Threadguy faced public accusations of insider trading. He denied the allegations in a 10-minute X video, stating he had "zero insider information" and that he himself lost approximately $250,000 on LIBRA.
During this period, the Solana Wiki entry for the "LA Vape Cabal" group — which described the group as known for "celebrity insiders" and "controversial personalities" — was removed. Four days after the LIBRA collapse, Threadguy posted a clarification video in which he made the unexpected admission that "most people will eventually be 'rekt' in this market, and very few people can really make money... No one is willing to actively promote this casino, but I have played this role invisibly." No formal regulatory action against Threadguy has been documented at time of profiling.
If you have any information concerning this person, including wallet addresses, transaction hashes, or insider communications, please contact the Bureau through the official channels below.
