A cryptocurrency platform that used Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong's Twitter profile without his knowledge has removed his photo and name, a day after he demanded on social media that it stop misleading the public.

Checks by The Straits Times on Saturday (April 3) found that his profile had been taken off BitClout - a new type of blockchain that has its own native cryptocurrency and platform.

It allows users to buy and sell "creator coins" that are tagged to influential Twitter profiles. People can buy the BitClout cryptocurrency with Bitcoin to make such trades.
