Backpack Witch Ruling Rules Controversy Triggers Community Wide Doubt, Official Response Pending

**March 23 Update: Backpack Token Launch Sparks "Witch Hunt" Backlash** Backpack officially rolled out its token claim and staking page today—only to face immediate controversy over a large-scale account purge. Multiple prominent short sellers and individual investors report the platform has flagged a massive number of accounts as "witch accounts." Community member Anymose claims 99% of their accounts were flagged, including those created via private invites in closed communities. The official team has yet to issue a clear explanation. Some "captains"—roles tasked with driving community growth—are among the hardest hit. Critics question conflicting rule design: the platform encourages users to expand its ecosystem, yet is purging core users who actually fuel that growth. Additionally, community members who spoke with Backpack’s Chinese team say some official staff lack specific details on the situation. Platform X user @gch_enbsbxbs says both their main and alternate Backpack accounts were flagged. They speculate the issue stems from past multi-device activity, noting they only operated on a small scale and invited real-life friends/family before being fully banned. Overall, the witch account flagging during Backpack’s token distribution has fallen short of community expectations. The market is closely watching for an official response.
