>>6885745
Yeah seriously fuck this poser asshole who thinks he's a genius because he put his money in some ponzi...

Same fate eventually for anyone with money in crypto...

DESU all these young crypto millionaires remind me of dotcom-bubble tier losers: there's a story from a BofA trader who was talking with the girlfriend of the CEO of some worthless dotcom company who had been given some 40mm USD worth of shares at his company: stock traded at a high of 220 USD.

He talking with her about putting a collar on the shares to limit her downside risk: worst case, she would have walked away with 20mm.

But the stock was down so she wanted to wait until it went back up.

It didn't--went straight to 0-- and she lost everything.

It's the same way with crypto: all these young assholes who've made 1000x on some chump-tier investing like BCC or frankly BTC or ETH-- they're going to lose it all when the bubble bursts.
