Danny de Hek: Crypto Shill or Financial Truth-Teller? The Receipts Say Otherwise

Danny de Hek loves to brand himself as a watchdog, but when it comes to cryptocurrency, he’s playing both sides of the fence, loudly criticizing “scams” one week, then shilling altcoins and hyping up prices the next. The proof is all over his Telegram and Twitter: when he thinks he can make a buck or bag some clout, suddenly it’s “a great time to invest!”
Screenshots show de Hek urging followers to jump into LunaOne, Apollo Currency, and Gold Secured Currency. April 27th? He’s pitching these coins as solid opportunities, listing prices and tagging every project he can find. He even posts, “If you’ve got $2 it would be a great time to invest in Crypto!!” Blatant pump.
But here’s the kicker: in private chats, he’s trashing these very same projects, mocking their progress, and calling out the delays and failures (“nothing this guy has said has eventuated…”). He’ll sneer at the “base system set up and rolling” line, but he has no issue hyping the tokens when it suits him.
For anyone paying attention, the contradictions are impossible to ignore. One day he’s exposing scams, next day he’s pushing altcoins for engagement and affiliate clicks. It’s not truth-telling, it’s classic double-dipping, selling outrage to one crowd, promises to another.
Danny de Hek isn’t interested in protecting the public; he’s interested in protecting his own brand, whatever keeps the clicks and the money flowing.
