Why It Matters: Coffeezilla on Jan. 19 said despite Paul's video apology on Twitter and promises to help repay the victims of the scam, he questioned the sincerity of Paul's behavior, noting that parts of his apology and new attitude seemed "flat."

For the uninitiated, Coffeezilla uploaded a three-part series uncovering the details of Paul's project, "CryptoZoo."

Paul quickly responded with a threat of legal action, followed by an apology and a $1.3 million refund program for CryptoZoo investors.

Coffeezilla remained unconvinced and revealed that the refund plan does “nothing” for most victims of the alleged scam.  

Coffeezilla said he doesn't want to downplay the gesture that Logan is making by offering refunds of 1000 Ethereum worth $1.3 million to victims, but “the scam was much bigger than 1.3 million dollars — so the fact is, most victims are not going to be made whole by this plan.
Price Action: At the time of writing, ETH was trading at $1,635  down 2.12%, in the last 24 hours, according to Benzinga Pro.
