Stephen McCullough Exposed: Grape Crypto AMA Lies, Delays & Broken Promises

This livestream is the result of weeks of listening, cross-checking, and documenting Stephen McCullough’s own words as he attempts yet another reboot of the Grape crypto project. AMA after AMA, the story never quite lines up. Timelines shift. Promises move. Excuses multiply. Tonight, I walk through exactly how we got here — and why the cracks are now impossible to ignore.

*THE RESET NARRATIVE*

Stephen reappears after months of silence, presenting himself as calm, confident, and “ahead of schedule.” He tells viewers that development is not just on track, but far beyond expectations. This framing is deliberate. It sets the stage for everything that follows — because once you accept that premise, every delay can be reframed as strategy instead of failure.

But when you line up AMA #9, #10, #11, #12, and now #13 side by side, a very different picture emerges.

*PROMISES THAT NEVER LANDED*

In earlier AMAs, viewers were told code was imminent, testnets were ready, patents were filed, funding was secured, and listings were just around the corner. Each AMA carried urgency. Each one suggested the next update would finally deliver proof.

Instead, each “next step” quietly became the justification for another delay. What was “this week” became “this month.” What was “live” became “testnet behind the testnet.” What was “ready” became “almost ready.”

*THE TECH SMOKE SCREEN*

In AMA 13, Stephen leans heavily on buzzwords — AI chatbots, DAG architecture, unprecedented TPS, on-chain assistants — all while failing to actually demonstrate the product he claims is ready. A video is supposed to play. It doesn’t. The demo stalls. The explanation drifts.

This isn’t just a technical hiccup. It’s a pattern. Grand claims paired with missing evidence, always deferred to a future update that never quite arrives.

*FUNDING, LISTINGS, AND THE PRICE FANTASY*

When questions turn to funding and listings, the story shifts again. Market conditions are blamed. Timing is everything. Listing “too early” would somehow hurt holders — despite repeated claims that demand is already there.

At the same time, Stephen floats the idea of a future listing at a “crazy price,” echoing the same speculative price anchoring tactics seen in past failed projects. This is the same playbook: delay accountability while keeping hope alive.

*IF STEPHEN DELIVERS “AI”, EXPECT GOOGLE GEMINI — NOT A MIRACLE OR PROPRIETARY BREAKTHROUGH*

Based on what we’ve already uncovered with BoosterCorp.ai, I’m approaching Stephen McCullough’s latest “super-intelligent AI” claims with extreme caution. We’ve seen this playbook before: grand promises, vague demos, and then the quiet admission that the system is simply a wrapper built on an existing large language model such as Google Gemini or similar third-party AI. I want to be clear — at this stage this is speculation, not a claim of fact — but given how frequently MLM-linked tech projects exaggerate “proprietary AI” while relying on off-the-shelf models, it’s reasonable to question whether this is genuine innovation or just another smoke-and-mirrors presentation dressed up as a breakthrough.

*THE CONTROLLED CONFUSION*

What stands out most is how complexity is used as a shield. Multiple tokens. Multiple chains. Bridges. DAOs. Free zones. AI layers. Every new concept adds noise, making it harder for ordinary investors to pin down simple questions: What exists today? What is live? What is independently verifiable?

And when clarity is requested, it’s always promised later.

*WHY THIS MATTERS*

This isn’t about one bad AMA or one failed demo. It’s about a long-running pattern of narrative management — where confidence replaces evidence, and storytelling substitutes delivery. People invest time, money, and belief based on these claims, and they deserve honesty, not perpetual deferral.

Tonight’s livestream is about putting Stephen McCullough’s own words on trial. Not opinions. Not rumours. Just timelines, contradictions, and receipts — all laid out in order.
