He likened it to a \u201cpyramid scheme\u201d and said Paul needed to \u201cown up\u201d to his mistakes. Logan Paul is back in the headlines for the wrong reasons after YouTube investigator Stephen \u2018Coffeezilla\u2019 Findeisen blew the whistle on his CryptoZoo project. Started in 2020, it was abandoned for two years, leaving investors millions out of pocket. With Logan Paul now trying to clean up his image and explain what went down behind the scenes \u2014 going as far to invite Coffeezilla onto his IMPAULSIVE podcast \u2014 Ludwig claims the damage has already been done and his \u201credemption trail\u201d has been destroyed. \u201cAlthough Logan Paul might have a renowned ability to hype things up, it seems like he has no ability to actually create something of value or stick to his word,\u201d he said in a December 27 video. Findeisen outlined how CryptoZoo was \u201cwhat feels like a pyramid scheme\u201d in Ludwig\u2019s words, getting friends and family to invest first via a \u2018soft\u2019 launch before the token was made fully public with an announcement. \u201cThey\u2019re trading, but it\u2019s on the inside \u2014 which is legal because there\u2019s no regulation,\u201d Ludwig explained. \u201cBut it should be illegal.\u201d After Zoo tokens were bought early ahead of the \u2018announcement\u2019, Logan Paul blew up in private messages saying they could have made $120 million off the $40 million of trade being done. This was bewildering to Ludwig, as he \u201ccouldn\u2019t possibly fathom\u201d the \u201clevels of greed\u201d. \u201cI am in an amazing position because of what has happened through YouTube, streaming, and content creation,\u201d he said. \u201cBut I\u2019m also good. \u201cOnce you hit $1 million, buy your dream home, get everything you want, cover your family\u2026 why do you need more money? I cannot wrap my head around [that].\u201d Ludwig\u2019s biggest criticism came at how Logan Paul was handling the PR aftermath though. He had two years to address all the concerns around CryptoZoo, which never turned into a fully-fledged game despite promises, but only chose to speak up after Coffeezilla\u2019s series. \u201cWhy did it take somebody making a three-part docu-series to finally own up to your f**k ups and mistakes? He was super happy to sell his crypto eggs for $2.5 million. He was super happy to sell millions of dollars of CryptoZoo token, but not so happy to actually man up when he needed to on a project that he said, in his own words, would make people money.\u201d \u201c[It\u2019s] super disappointing to see from somebody who I thought was on a redemption trail, who had matured quite a bit, whose content I thought was amazing. \u201cBut it seems like Logan Paul\u2019s main ability is to hype things up, make a lot of attention around things\u2026 but not to follow through and be a good, ethical, and moral actor.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ludwig claims Logan Paul blew \u201credemption trail\u201d with CryptoZoo \u201cscam\u201d YouTube: Ludwig \/ YouTube: Logan PaulYouTube star Ludwig Ahgren has criticized Logan Paul for blowing up his \u201credemption trail\u201d after intricate details of his CryptoZoo \u201cscam\u201d were made public by Coffeezilla.
