Ethan Klein confronts Mike Majlak over DinkDoink crypto drama: \u201cI\u2019ve never scammed anyone\u201d YouTube: H3 PodcastOne year removed from what many quickly labeled as another cryptocurrency \u201cscam,\u201d H3H3\u2019s Ethan Klein confronted Impaulsive host Mike Majlak over his involvement with the infamous DinkDoink \u2018meme-coin.\u2019 The gaming space has been embroiled in a number of alleged crypto \u2018pump and dump\u2019 scandals. Following close behind Kay\u2019s \u2018Save The Kids\u2019 scandal that saw him removed from FaZe Clan, both Logan Paul and Mike Majlak were accused of similarly misleading their audience with a questionable crypto known as DinkDoink. Both members of the Impaulsive podcast promoted the crypto, calling it the \u201chottest new coin of 2021\u201d and publicly stating they were \u201call in\u201d. \u201cWe can go to the top of this whole market,\u201d Majlak said in a brief video that soon went viral across social media. Days later news surfaced that Paul himself allegedly helped design the crypto and that \u201c80%\u201d of its value at launch \u201c[was] owned by the top 100 wallets.\u201d While its value rapidly plummeted, now being worth just $0.000000000017549 per coin, Paul and Logan went silent on the matter. Now 12 months on from the situation, Majlak faced the music when Klein questioned him on his involvement during episode 254 of his H3 Podcast. After replaying the viral promotional video, Majlak quickly turned the tables. \u201cLet me ask you a question,\u201d he said. \u201cWhen you watch that video of me, is there any moment of that where you\u2019re like \u2018wow, this seems serious\u2019?\u201d \u201cNo,\u201d Klein responded. \u201cYou\u2019re obviously being tongue in cheek.\u201d Explaining how it all came about, Majlak stressed that this video was intended for a small audience, rather than the millions that soon viewed it online. \u201cI get a call. I\u2019m doing this dumb thing, absolutely no explanation. It\u2019s an idea that talks sh*t about the crypto community. Can you send a video to me that I\u2019m going to post for the 15 devs in this Telegram group chat? Two days later this thing\u2019s viral. Some a**hole is gonna see this and think it\u2019s a real thing now.\u201d The DinkDoink discussion begins at the 1:28:39 mark below. As a completely real coin established in the crypto marketplace, DinkDoink lost roughly 90% of its value from June 26 to July 12, 2021. \u201cI have never in any of my wallets accepted a DinkDoink coin,\u201d Majlak stressed. \u201cI never accepted any kind of payment for DinkDoink. I\u2019ve never been involved in even a semblance of a crypto scam.\u201d \u201cYou didn\u2019t profit from DinkDoink?\u201d Klein put simply. \u201cIn zero way, shape, or form,\u201d Majlak replied. \u201cWe don\u2019t scam, I\u2019ve never scammed anyone before. Logan cares deeply about his audience, loves his brand, doesn\u2019t have to scam to make money. Nobody made money on DinkDoink.\u201d Majlak then went on to reveal he supposedly lost money as a result of the backlash to DinkDoink. One particular sponsor seemingly backed out of a $35K partnership with the influencer shortly after the crypto drama. Paul is still yet to properly address his involvement with the DinkDoink cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
