Remember when everyone on X was digging into KOL account location information? Trying to judge whether this guy would run away based on country tags. The funny thing is, everyone seems to have forgotten about immigration — an Indian family moves to the US, and their bio still says 'United States,' but just looking at that label makes you think this person is unreliable.

This actually reflects an interesting phenomenon in the Web3 community: we use geographic location to make quick trust judgments, but this dimension itself is full of flaws. Account addresses can indeed reveal information, but blindly relying on nationality tags to assess KOL credibility is fundamentally flawed.

Haha, really, this method of judgment should have been discarded long ago. Geographic location doesn't really explain anything. It's not about a country being bad; it's just that this logic itself is too magical. Evaluating KOL credibility based on country tags? Let's not do that anymore. Still worrying about birthplace after immigrating? Isn't that funny? Actually, it still depends on on-chain data and real actions. The little information in the bio has little reference value.

Haha, this logic is really weak... Can address labels really determine trustworthiness? That's hilarious.

Haha, seriously, judging whether to run or not based on country tags is ridiculous. Have you guys even considered the existence of immigration? Can trust really be defined by geographic location? Wake up, the logic just doesn't hold up. Why are you so easily swayed by a single label? Isn't this a common problem in the Web3 community? What does a nationality label really say? I personally don't buy into that. It's 2024 and you're still digging into location info to judge reliability? Bro, you're overthinking it. Instead of looking at country tags, why not check on-chain data? Why choose the least reliable dimension? This logic really can't hold up. One immigrant has broken your trust system.

Haha, really. The logic of judging exit scam risk based on the address should have been phased out long ago. Just transfer if you want to transfer. Who hasn't changed cities or nationalities? What can the nationality label say? The Web3 community loves to engage in these crooked "due diligence" methods, but it's better to just look at on-chain data. This fast-food style judgment method might someday wrongly accuse good people. Ultimately, it's still because there's no truly effective screening mechanism—just guessing blindly.

Haha, whether someone is reliable or not really isn't about nationality. This kind of logic is similar to judging a person's character based on their zodiac sign.

Haha, this is a typical "data detective" syndrome, insisting on digging out something from the bio... Speaking of trust, you really can't judge just by geographic location. We can all use VPNs or immigrate, so how do you determine? Instead of focusing on the country label, it's more reliable to look at the on-chain history records.

Haha, it's really that simple and straightforward to judge who is running away and who isn't. Anyone would laugh at it. The geographical location argument doesn't hold water at all; everyone is being too naive. Speaking of which, the project team still copies the big V's routines—changing the city, changing the persona. The same issues will still happen when they collapse. Instead of fixating on nationality labels, it's better to look at on-chain data to speak for itself... Always trying to find shortcuts to judge reliability—this is just Web3.
