Before funding and after funding are two very different stories.
If there are other victims
@ThePlooshies who have experienced a similar situation, please feel free to contact me.
Web3 is still full of interesting experiences, for better or worse. 🙂

Reply : “Please be assured that we are doing our best to deliver a satisfactory outcome for all investors. The token launch date has been confirmed as either December 25 or January 26. Until then, we will provide regular updates at least every 2–3 weeks.”
I did not pressure or rush him at any point.
I waited until January 26, 2026, the date he mentioned.
On the day of that final promised date, I was the one who reached out "first".
The only thing I received in return was a single PDF.
I do not blame them if the token price drops or even if the launch ultimately fails. I accepted those risks when I chose to invest.
What made me completely lose trust in this project was the lack of respect shown toward its investors. Even the regular updates that were promised every 2–3 weeks were never delivered, not even once, even after a full year.
Without basic communication and accountability, what can a project realistically achieve in Web3?
At the very least, if he had reached out before January 26, acknowledged the delay, apologized, and shared a transparent update on the project’s status, I would have been willing to wait longer and continue supporting him.
