In the crypto industry, John McAfee has been famous for his bold predictions of various coins’ prices back in 2017-2018 and ICO promotion until the SEC put an end to that.
Later on, McAfee started running for the US presidential chair and this year he has been chased by the IRS for avoiding his tax payments over the last eight years.
McAfee has always promoted the idea of freedom from banks and governments. This is how he explains the real reason of the IRS (and the CIA, as he says) being after him.
Recently, McAfee launched his own decentralized exchange (dex), which took him about a year to prepare.
McAfee’s dex web address, modified a little, leads to Binance
In a tweet published on October 21, the crypto eccentric John McAfee says that a tiny change in the address of his recently launched dex leads you to Binance.
Here's flattery for you: we launched https://t.co/HdSEYi9krq two weeks ago. Today if you type https://t.co/BAQAhp3rDm (two f''s) it gets forwared to Binance. Thank you CZ.

The difference between the actual address of the dex and the Binance referral link is an extra ‘f’ letter. In the comment thread, somebody assumes that this could be a referral link set up by somebody.
The person then takes this assumption further, suggesting that the link could be set up by…McAfee himself for getting some a win-win situation with Binance.
Lmfao. You're right.

McAfee generously invites crypto podcasters to invite him
In another recent tweet, McAfee calls on crypto podcasters, saying that if they have a sense of humor and can pass the scrutiny of his wife Janice, then he would join a podcast as a speaker.
This could be part of his pre-election campaign, since in his present status of a person chased by the IRS, McAfee would hardly be invited for an interview on any official TV channels.
If you have a podcast, a sense of humor, a tolerance of my language, and can handle my perspectives, and ..... can pass my wife's scrutiny, then I would be happy to join you. @theemrsmcafee can be reached at: mrsjanicemcafee@gmail.com
