Credit where it's due. Like many of you, I had funds stuck on @binance this past week. No one likes that feeling. But Binance did what a serious company should do. They shared updates every single day, covered every user from their own reserves & reopened withdrawals on the exact day they promised. My funds are back in full. Thank you @_RichardTeng @heyibinance and the whole team. This is what long term vision looks like. Did yours come through?

🚨 This fake email came from Blue Guardian's REAL address. Their email was misused. The button opens a fake site, BlueGuradian (see the spelling), and asks you to connect your wallet. If you already connected, remove the site's access in your wallet and move funds to a new one.

Weird week for this space honestly. One side binance got hacked and froze withdrawals and real traders are just sitting there watching money they saved for months/years, stuck, not knowing if its coming back. thats genuinely painful to see. Other side, one of the biggest prop review sites just had major firms cut ties with it one by one and honestly for some other review site out there, this is probably the best week they’ve ever had. Same week. tough for some, a fresh start for others. Thats just how trust moves.

Guys imagine… You spend months building trust, you make the videos, you reply to every dm, you actually convince someone to try a firm. They use your link because they wanna support you. Then before buying they go check prop firm match… one click and quietly, in a new tab, your link just got replaced with prop firm match affiliate link. Firm pays prop firm match, you get 0… you did the work, someone else got the money and you never even knew it was happening. Now imagine this running for almost a year across millions of visits. How many creators opened their dashboard, saw 0 and thought maybe im just not good enough maybe i should quit. They didnt fail. their commission was getting taken the whole time silently bro. Thats not a small oops, thats a year of other peoples money. a sorry post doesnt send that back.
Three years ago, Prop Firm Match launched. Two traders saw a gap in the market for a platform providing simplicity and transparency for prop firm traders. We developed new features not seen before: verified reviews, payout tracking across all payment methods, live spreads, rule overviews, simple ways to compare prop firms, and prop firm expos. Three years in, PFM has had over 25M website visits, reached over 370,000 members, and has given out free challenge accounts worth over $1,400,000 to the PFM community. Over 100 firms apply to be listed each year and go through one of the industry’s most rigorous compliance processes. We also got something wrong. Until yesterday, when someone clicked on a firm or a code on our site, a new tab would open the firm’s site through our affiliate link. This should not have happened. We take full responsibility for it. We have reached out to each of our partners to review this together and reconcile any inaccuracies. We respect any decisions firms have made based on this. We truly appreciate the partners and traders who value the relationship we have built together over the years. We promise you that we will learn from this, hold ourselves to the highest standard, and come back stronger and better.

Since this post, a lot of traders have been testing the sites they use. Good. On Prop Firm Bridge, copy a code and it just copies. A firm's site opens only when you click Visit. Today we went one step further. You can now say no to our ad cookies too. One tap, and they never load. Your click, your choice.
Prop firms: “We ban affiliates who force cookies.” Also prop firms: listed on sites that force cookies.😂 Isn’t that a double standard? We recorded our live site so you don’t have to trust us. Click Copy. Watch nothing happen.That’s how it should work.

A prop firm just cut ties with a review site over this. Think about that for a second. Review sites are supposed to work for traders, not take credit for clicks you never made. On Prop Firm Bridge, copy a code and it just copies. A firm's site opens only when you click Visit. If a site needs tricks to get paid, why would you trust its rankings?
Do this right now on whatever site you use to pick a prop firm. Click a firm’s profile. Don’t click anything else. Just watch your browser. Did a new tab open by itself? Did the page flash for a second before it loaded? If yes, someone just got paid for a decision you haven’t made yet. Your tab went through an affiliate link you never clicked, and a cookie landed on you that you never agreed to. Most traders never notice. They spend hours comparing drawdown rules and payout splits, and zero seconds checking what the site in front of them is doing. Respect to @traderkane for putting this on the timeline. Keep calling it out, someone has to. Here’s what bothers me most. Traders get banned every week for deceitful marketing. One wrong move and the payout is gone, no appeal. So a genuine question to every prop firm CEO reading this: if a trader can’t bend the rules, why can the sites sending you buyers? Isn’t that a double standard? Traders, check the site before you check the firm. Your click is worth more than you think.

Are we still on the "deceitful marketing algo"? Hey @PropFirmMatch, did you knowingly push an update that stuffs cookies when people aren’t clicking links advertised in the code as external websites? Here’s what happens: someone clicks the profile page or copy code link that links to the internal page and your javascript handler redirects the original tab through an affiliate link to the firm’s website and opens the intended link a new tab... sounds pretty knowing to me. You even ban your affiliates from forcing cookies.. but you can, huh? Some pretty big affiliates have gone to prison for cookie stuffing. I used @MattLeech's MFFU as an example in this video but this happens on most firms listed on their website (I didn't check them all). Firms are banning traders for deceitful marketing, if this isn't deceitful what is?

CFD is dead?? lol noooo 💀
Futures and perps are just the new hype, CFD's still eating with all the new traders. The only thing cooked is firms changing rules every week.
Unpopular opinion: most traders still don't trust perps prop firms. But 8 firms are already all-in on it, and we ranked every one of them. In our opinion, perps are about to blow up. 🚀 Next big thing or a bubble? And do you agree with this ranking?

🚨 WHEN THE BIGGEST PROP FIRM REVIEW PLATFORM STARTS LOSING ITS BIGGEST PARTNERS.🚨 @ApexTradeFund has already terminated its affiliate relationship. Maybe it’s time for other firms to start reviewing their partnerships too. 💀 Imagine calling yourself the industry’s biggest review platform while allegedly playing dirty affiliate games behind the scenes. Cookie stuffing isn’t marketing. It’s deceptive affiliate manipulation and can carry serious legal consequences depending on the circumstances. You police affiliates for forced cookies, but what about your own website? Traders deserve transparency, not hidden affiliate tricks. If one major firm has walked away, others should seriously reconsider who they’re associating with. Biggest review platform? More like the biggest credibility crisis. #propfirmmedia📈
