If you're being singled out by the Medium CEO, it's only a sign of your success here. Keep at it. Nobody needs to agree with everything you write.

I've had several fake accounts under your name (probably created in St. Petersburg, Russia) comment on my posts or comments recommending a bit of bitcoin, ironically enough.

Another sign of your success. Just ignore the haters and keep doing what you do.

Even when I disagree with your posts I still find them important. We can't self-censor when critics torch us. It's a compliment to be singled out. Soak it in.
