Crypto influencer vetting — bots and pods filtered out

Vetting: The Step Most Projects Skip (and Regret)

Crypto is the most fraud-heavy influencer niche in existence — botted followers, engagement pods, and paid-pump histories are everywhere. Before any influencer touches your budget we check audience authenticity, engagement quality over time, previous sponsored performance, and reputation history. Our full checklist is in how to vet crypto KOLs.

Roughly 1 in 3 influencers who apply to our network fail vetting.
