If you search youtube for "2024 financial crash" you will hit quite a few results

If you search youtube for "2023 financial crash" you won't find anything, they delete them all NYD 2024

Have you considered using the YouTube API to track these videos/channels while they are up (download the json, thumbs, transcript, maybe even whole video), check yt IDs daily/weekly to track video/channel deletions? The data dump might make an interesting info graphic, or be used to expose a grifter, or a ring of shill accounts.
