I just saw this on my YouTube - still hasn't been stopped. I'm sure a _lot_ of people have sent money to this crypto as it's certainly quite convincing to the non-tech audience.

Why isn't this bigger news?

the fact that it hasnt been taken down in 2 hours makes me think insiders are deliberately doing this, either from tesla or youtube, what a total shame

To be as clear as possible, this is an obvious scam.
