  • MetalBlock's whitepaper is highly plagiarized, they are also using text spinners to avoid detection which i find even more damning.
  • Another gold-backed ERC20 shit token on the horizon as if we don't have enough of those already.

Some good ol' TEXT SPINNING:

On the left side is MetalBlock's spinned text and on the right side, we have the source goldencurrency WP.
