The Keeta Network, a Layer 1 blockchain claiming 10 million TPS capability, is under intense scrutiny after serious allegations surfaced about the authenticity of its testnet. The controversy erupted after Michael Ruzic, founder of DeFi Capital Markets, accused the network of faking its testnet operations—leading to a 25.9% crash in $KTA price on June 10, 2025.
Ruzic stated on X that the testnet’s explorer shows fabricated data, calling the whitepaper “AI slop” and raising doubts over its $1.6 billion valuation. He further claimed that swap functionalities are non-operational.
