we have 2100 cryptos  https://coinmarketcap.com/all/views/all/

and only a few cryptos are not shitcoins and copy/paste from other projects, and now there's another guy who wants to make another copy/paste instead of work hard to creating something new and unique that helps the crypto and the world

No team

I suppose he will use the following argument: "we have to remain anonymous because the coin is anonymous"

This MoneroX looks like Monero Gold (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2486560.0), which happened to be scam. They sent airdrop tokens, pumped the price, and when people made a lot of buy orders - issued 9,999,999,999,999,999 tokens, sent them to exchange and fill all the orders  :D

It is easy to add members to telegram channel and one project can always do a bounty campaign for telegram I have seen one project going 50k members because of their telegram airdrop campaign, so don't believe in the figure, check the project and the platofrm and how they answer issues as they come.
