Crypto sleuth ZachXBT accused BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes of promoting bullish views on four cryptocurrencies—Worldcoin (WLD), Zcash (ZEC), Hyperliquid (HYPE), and NEAR Protocol (NEAR)—before quickly selling his holdings. Hayes dismissed the claims, stating he sold to willing buyers at market prices and that his sales aligned with his trading goals. The controversy highlights concerns about potential market manipulation or misleading promotion by influential crypto figures. Hayes had promoted WLD as an AI-related investment tied to OpenAI CEO Sam Altman before exiting his position due to unfavorable price trends.
