*Solana Meme Coin* Church Turns on Pastor After Scam Allegations Surface
Pastor Kelby has been ousted from the Church of the Smoking Chicken Fish, following a number of allegations surfacing.
Absurdist meme coin Smoking Chicken Fish (SCF), which evolved from a Solana token into a religion with plans to build a physical church, has ousted its de facto leader amid a flurry of âscammerâ allegations. With this, the remaining team has retaken control of the projectâs website and Telegram channel, and is currently fighting to get into the Twitter account.
Community and core team members of the SCF token claim that Pastor Kelby took payments from derivative projects without notifying the rest of the team, received âchurch donationsâ directly into his personal wallet, and has launched a number of ârug pulls.â
Pastor Kelby did not respond to Decryptâs repeated requests for comment via Telegram or LinkedIn.
Smoking Chicken Fish is a meme coin that started with a weird photo. But things took a turn when contributors developed their own moral and philosophical laws, turning into a âchurchâ that worshiped âLord Fishnuâ and registered as a nonprofit organization. Pastor Kelby led daily sermons where he read passages from his favorite self-help books.
