You should differentiate failure and scam.
Have you read the article provided by @EmpowNetwork?
If you have read it, you will understand about what Alex meant in his article as a scam, I think we all (crypto people) have wise thoughts about what is called a scam and failure. In the article given, Alex as the author attaches various data that most likely leads to deliberate market manipulation, then, is this not considered a fraud? I think that includes mate.
They made those manipulations to trap investors into buying $RACA. There's nothing wrong with the OP's and Alex's allegations in the article, as long as he provides strong enough data.
