KSI slammed online for backing Logan Paul amid CryptoZoo refund scandal CryptoZoo NFT asset \/ YouTube: KSIKSI has landed himself in hot water after backing his business partner, Logan Paul amid backlash surrounding CryptoZoo\u2019s buyback program. After an ongoing online investigation by YouTuber \u2018Coffeezilla\u2018, Logan Paul has announced a buyback program for fans who invested in his failed crypto-coin-based game, CryptoZoo. With the project labeled online as a \u201cscam\u201d that took advantage of and stole millions from Paul\u2019s own fanbase, the American influencer has now launched a website to refund NFT buyers. However, Coffeezilla has since pointed out his own issues with the program, calling it a \u201cmassive con\u201d. Now, business partner and co-founder of Prime, KSI has come under fire for publicly backing Paul following the launch of his buyback program. Tweeting \u201cWhat will the haters say now?\u201d, KSI was met with a wave of scrutiny, but he chose to double down with an extended post on X (formerly Twitter). \u201cI feel like Logan is doing the best he possibly can to help those who have been affected by this project,\u201d KSI wrote, claiming that people were \u201cforgetting\u201d Paul\u2019s other more successful projects. \u201cCall me a d***ider\/d***eater all you like, but I\u2019m always gonna wanna back my friends and give them the benefit of the doubt.\u201d Community notes quickly pointed out that \u201cLogan Paul\u2019s buyback only accounts for 12% of damages ($2.3M out of $18.5M of sales)\u201d and that \u201cAccepting the refund will waive your rights to sue Paul or CryptoZoo,\u201d as thousands jumped to call out KSI in the comments. \u201cI don\u2019t think covering as little as you can and locking a refund behind a waiver is \u2018the best he can do\u2019,\u201d one person wrote, encouraging KSI to look into Paul\u2019s other crypto endorsements such as Dink Doink to see the extent of the influencer\u2019s \u201cscummy\u201d NFT track record. \u201cI know he\u2019s your boy but come on now.\u201d \u201cThis tweet does nothing good for you, bro. Logan [is] still a scum bag for the CryptoZoo scandal and you could\u2019ve just left his tweet as that and [been] glad that this stain on your business partner\u2019s reputation is starting to be clean,\u201d another said. A third wrote, \u201cIt\u2019s time we [collectively] decide to take the \u2018knowledge\u2019 out of \u2018KSI\u2019\u2026 I decree from this day forth you shall be known as \u2018SI.’\u201d Many have also accused KSI of supporting Paul only due to their ongoing business and shared investment in Prime; \u201cYou have a financial [incentive] to ensure Logan isn\u2019t seen as an a**hole.\u201d Be sure to check out all the latest entertainment news on our page here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
