Anoma is no longer a serious project — it’s a warning sign of what happens when ego, inexperience, and a vacuum of leadership collide.
Over the last week, Anoma employees launched a coordinated smear campaign against the Keeta Project, one of the few competitors in the space showing actual momentum. The attacks weren’t hidden behind pseudonyms or burner accounts — they were public, loud, and stamped with Anoma’s official team badges.
Instead of engaging in technical debate or defending their own roadmap, Anoma’s staff chose to wage war on Twitter, spreading misinformation and personal attacks in a desperate attempt to discredit Keeta.
At the front of this embarrassing spectacle was Michael Ruzic — now calling himself “MRG” — a non-technical staffer with a chemistry degree and zero qualifications in protocol engineering or cryptography. Despite this, Ruzic has paraded himself as a technical authority while spewing provably false claims, damaging the project’s reputation more than any outsider could.
But the biggest red flag? Anoma CEO Adrian Brink said nothing.
While his team publicly embarrassed the company, Adrian refused to intervene, refused to set the record straight, and — in a stunning betrayal of basic leadership — used the opportunity to promote a competitor’s product instead of standing behind his own team.
- This isn’t just a PR disaster. It’s structural rot:
- Employees using the Anoma brand to lie and defame.
- Inexperienced figureheads posing as experts.
- Leadership that abandons its post at the first sign of pressure.
Meanwhile, Keeta kept building. No public attacks. No childish antics. Just product, progress, and professionalism — everything Anoma has failed to deliver.
The message is clear: Anoma is spiraling. And the world is watching.
