Dubai-based Indian memecoin creator, Sahil Arora, called memecoin rug pull schemes the most lucrative opportunity in an interview with the New York Post. According to the May 17 article<\/a>, Arora, who boasts of earning millions of dollars from over 100 memecoin rug pulls, said:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe easiest way to make money is to deploy a meme coin, run it, and then sell as soon as you see [profits].\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In rug pulls or pump-and-dump schemes, bad actors create a worthless memecoin, use false or paid endorsements to promote it, and sell it as soon as the price goes up. The creators usually control a large portion of the tokens, and selling off the pile causes the price to crash.<\/p>\n

Therefore, investors bear the losses while the creator makes off with millions. In August 2024, crypto sleuth ZachXBT estimated<\/a> that Arora earned between $2 million and $3 million through memecoin scams.<\/p>\n

Last year, Arora told<\/a> The Defiant that it \u201ctook a lotta brain pulling that [rug pulls] off.\u201d Arora, who is proud to have been called a \u201csuper villain,\u201d brazenly told the Post that rug pulling is the \u201cbiggest casino on Earth right now.\u201d<\/p>\n

Veteran crypto investor Kyle Chass\u00e9 told the Post:<\/p>\n

\u201c…at least in the casino, you know that maybe 60 percent of the time the house wins. In this [crypto] casino, the house is going to win 99 percent of the time.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Arora added:<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you don\u2019t get rugged by me, you\u2019re probably going to get rugged by someone else. So, you might as well get rugged by a person with a track record of some success rather than getting rugged by a random person on the Internet.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Arora continues to carry out memecoin rug pulls<\/h2>\n

Last year, several celebrities accused<\/a> Arora of using memecoins connected to them to orchestrate and pull off pump-and-dump scams. This included former Olympian Caitlyn Jenner, Dimitri Leslie Roger, an American rapper known as Rich the Kid, and Australian rapper Iggy Azalea.<\/p>\n

Despite the accusations and Arora\u2019s non-denial of involvement, he managed to pull off more rug pulls. In February 2025, Arora, who portrays a lavish lifestyle from money earned through rug pulls, launched the token BROCCOLI, an ode to former Binance<\/a> CEO Changpeng Zhao<\/a> (CZ\u2019s) dog, using the same wallet he used to launch Jenner\u2019s official memecoin in 2024. Arora told<\/a> Decrypt that he made $6.5 million by dumping Brocolli tokens.<\/p>\n

Pseudonymous crypto consultant Cryptony told the Post that the price of memecoins like Brocolli only goes up because of large demand after endorsements or promotions. He added:<\/p>\n

\u201c[In rug pulls] The rich get richer. For one person to make money, another person has to lose money. That\u2019s where it comes from.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Arora is one of many<\/h2>\n

Several influencers have been accused of promoting memecoins that crash in value. This includes YouTuber Paul \u201cIce Poseidon\u201d Denino, Faze Kay, and Haliey \u201cHawk Tuah Girl\u201d Welch.<\/p>\n

Denino reportedly emptied out the liquidity pool of his memecoin two weeks after launch. He admitted<\/a> to stealing the money from investors, with his total loot standing at around $750,000.<\/p>\n

Faze Kay was accused of promoting a token called Save the Kids that crashed. Welch, whose memecoin HAWK lost 95% of its value in minutes, however, was cleared by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of any wrongdoing, according to her manager.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
