In 1920, Charles Ponzi was indicted by a Federal court and sentenced to life in prison. Despite that, a group of his victims held onto the hope that he would be released and deliver on his promises. They held onto their shares and refused to cooperate with Federal prosecutors who would redeem their shares for restitution rewards. Some of his former investors created a secondary market to buy and sell shares of Charles Ponzi’s company.

How were 1920s boomers really that delusional? Is it because they didn't have the internet yet?

I love how LUNC exposes the true idiots on here. I don't own a single LUNC. But I do know that most anons who have talked about it got beer money's worth of it in the hopes that it somehow does a 1000x or more

It’s actually interesting. Ponzi and SBF both started out finding legitimate profitable arbitrage and then tried to take on investors and scale up.

difference between ponzi and SBF is that ponzi genuinely cared about people while SBF is just a greedy psychopath who loved and still loves to think of himself as genius.
