Two weeks ago we published a story regarding allegations that notable NFT influencer @Artchick was a male. The reporting was based on flimsy evidence found on Twitter, so we’re taking this opportunity to correct what was wrong.
The day after we published this story, Artchick released a video explaining herself and shooting down the primary allegation that she was “Tanner.” She explains that the names found in her blog, Tanner Golden and Chelsea Moon, were made-up personas for the blog. With her response, the argument against Artchick being a man has been shown to be false. Note that most of the tweets we reported on have since been deleted.

We will continue to strive to bring accurate and objective news.
