Dear FFR23,
First of all, I would like to state that I am writing this text not to defend myself, but to correct misunderstandings and offer a perspective based on mutual respect.
There is an important point you may have missed or misunderstood: I never claimed that I did not help people on NL. Therefore, the screenshots you shared in this context are misleading. All of this content was shared transparently and openly, and I have no objections to it.
I have been producing content objectively for projects in Astar for over 25 months and in the crypto content creation space for over 5 years. If I were truly a “shiller” who misrepresents a project and deceives the community, it would be impossible for me to have gained trust and maintained a presence in this ecosystem for such a long time. If you ask my followers or local Astar groups, they will readily confirm how impartial I have been in my stance toward projects.
My role at NL was to support community members as “Head Ambassador.” Due to my extensive ecosystem network, I was offered the BD role, but I continued my role solely as H.A. and left the project shortly thereafter. During this process, all I did was share updates related to NL. I did not engage in any promotion, provide investment advice, or influence anyone.
I left NL when the project team, especially the founders, began to fail to keep their promises, and I announced this decision to the public with the same transparency. Months after I left, we learned that NL had completely disappeared and, as expected, had failed to keep its promises. This shows how timely my warning to the community was. Today, I receive many complaints about NL, and some people who have been harmed even thank me for warning them in time.
On the Astar side, I have always evaluated the project objectively in all my content. I never hesitated to speak out when I saw poor management, wrong behavior, or fraud. Indeed, NL was recently removed from the dApp staking list, and its founder, Leo, was removed from the Astar ambassador program. I personally removed him from the Astar Turkey group as well. Unfortunately, malicious projects like NL had made it onto Astar’s dApp staking lists, but over time, they were all weeded out. Astar learned from these incidents and developed a stronger system each time.
Despite all this, it is very sad that these accusations are being directed at me. While there are people who do not keep their word and disappear, it is not fair that I am the target of these criticisms. I am here, I am not anonymous, I am building my future in this industry, and I have never taken a step that would embarrass myself or my community.
I have always kept Astar separate from NL. In the local Astar group, I tried to set boundaries for NL content because Leo was the ambassador. I specifically advocated for using the project’s own channels for all matters related to NL.
To demonstrate my transparency, I am attaching the relevant screenshots below. (TR - ENG mixed)
Since I believe this issue is no longer a matter of a “Contribution Report,” I do not wish to prolong it here. We can continue our conversation on Telegram or wherever you prefer. You can always reach me at my Telegram address @Emret16. Believe me, I will sincerely help and answer all your questions.
Because I want to emphasize once again: You are right to be angry with NL, but you are directing your anger at the wrong person.
I am not your enemy. On the contrary, I am here to support every member of the Astar community, protect them, and strengthen the community together. And I can confidently say that I will always support anyone fighting against fraud.
Best regards,
Astar Agent~Emre
