The core team of OpSec has collectively resigned, with the CEO stating that the project's founder has been absent for a long time and has monopolized financial power

Chris Williams announced on X that he has resigned as CEO of OpSec.

He stated: “The entire core team will also resign with me. Despite our best efforts, we have encountered challenges that prevent us from continuing to work in a manner consistent with our values of transparency, accountability, and integrity.

This decision was made based on recent findings revealed by ZachXBT, as well as our self-assessment of OpSec's operations. These findings, combined with the long-term absence of the undisclosed founder and the unilateral control over the company's finances, severely limited our ability to lead effectively and execute our vision. Payment delays, layoffs, and the unclear direction of OpSec have put immense pressure on our team and affected our collective ability to fulfill our commitments to our loyal community.”

According to RootData, OpSec is an AI and decentralized cloud computing platform featuring decentralized servers, dedicated networks, RDP, GPU, one-click node setup, etc., aimed at achieving cloud security for DePIN hardware.

Previous news reported that on-chain detective ZachXBT stated on X: “SCALE, NTD, TPU, and OPSEC projects are all associated with the same person Zopp0, who uses multiple KOLs to exploit inexperienced traders.”

“What are the exciting articles worth reading in the past 24 hours”

From the FBI raid on Polymarket's founder to the death of Peanut, PolitiFi-like MEME coins are being hyped

After the U.S. presidential election, Shayne Coplan, the founder of the Polymarket platform, which accurately predicted the winning results, was suddenly raided by the FBI, an act that was responded to as "political retaliation" and received support from Musk. Meanwhile, the investigation into Polymarket has sparked strong reactions in the crypto community, with the related MEME coin Free Shayne Coplan (Eagle) also receiving significant funding participation.

FBI Opens The Door! The hot potato Polymarket faces a regulatory raid

The New York Post reported today that insiders revealed Polymarket founder Shayne Coplan's home in New York's Soho district was subjected to an FBI raid—around 6:00 AM local time, Coplan was awakened at home, and FBI agents demanded he hand over his phone and electronic devices, but did not arrest Coplan.

Bloomberg subsequently reported that the raid was prompted by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) investigating Polymarket, accusing the platform of violating an agreement made in 2022 with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) to "prevent U.S. users from accessing" the platform while still continuing to accept trades from U.S. users.

After the incident, Coplan himself posted two updates on X, the first joking about needing a new phone… The second was a direct response stating: "It is frustrating that the current government would make a last-ditch effort to pursue companies they believe are associated with political opponents. We are firmly committed to a nonpartisan stance, and today is no exception, but the current government should engage in some self-reflection and recognize that taking a more business-friendly and entrepreneurial approach could change the fate of this election for them. Polymarket has provided value to tens of millions of people during this election cycle without harming anyone. We are proud of this. I can say with my head held high that the future of America, especially the future of American entrepreneurship, has never been brighter. In the face of adversity, we will continue to build."
