What are the biggest scams in history? I think we can bring together some of traditionals and also in crypto. We all know Bitconnect but what else?

>> No.15205136

Fractional reserve banking, going off gold standard, paper money

>> No.15205137

There are sooo many scams out there. Where should we begin? I start with Ankr. CEO is pumping coins with the intention to dump his own bag when its higher.

>> No.15205190

Literally 98% of crypto you newfag retard. All of those shitcoins you're holding are specifically designed to part you from your btc for worthless trash. This isn't even mentioning collusion between early adopter whales to dump on you in shady ways to acquire more btc which was once briefly yours.

You will not make it.

I think thats more like a negation thread? We basically say whats good ??!??! did i understand it right?
One of projects which first looked like a scam were also many which are in the end the best ones. For example many people called out EOS for a scam and in the end it became berserk. I think also
>Bitcloud Pro
is one of them. on the first sight its hard to understand but when you start to understand its a killer!
>Chainlink is the same.
At first people scared then it pumped and all bought it. People love scams which make money. More than legit project which are on loss.

Chris didn't know what to do. He tried to dance, at least move his shoulders and hips a little, but he knew it didn't look good. Nothing he was doing looked good. Tyler kept watching, moving closer to him in some miraculous, rhythmic way until they were right in front of each other. Tyler's hand fell on Chris's hip, and they swayed to the music together, always moving closer. Before Chris had time to think about it, they were grinding on each other, and Tyler was pulling up the hem of his shirt. "Oh, wait," Chris tried to protest, but Tyler quieted him instantly.

"It's just a shirt." And then his shirt was off. And then Tyler was backing him against a wall. And then they were kissing.

It wasn't like any kiss Chris had had before. There was a certain roughness to it, in the way Tyler pinned his wrists to the wall and grabbed his ass and clung to the side of his neck. And there was the embarrassment. Embarrassment at being seen shirtless. Embarrassment at making out with his roommate. Extreme embarrassment when Tyler pinched his nipple and Chris let out a gasp against his lips. He felt his head pressing back against the wall, Tyler gripping his hips to grind against him.

"I saw you watching us last night," Tyler groaned into his roommate's ear. Chris stared dimly out at the party as Tyler continued, pressing kisses into his neck in between words, "And I noticed the little surprise you left in my bed." Chris squirmed when his roommate's teeth dug into his collarbone, sending a deep ache through his body. Tyler's hands were everywhere, on his neck, and his ass, pulling their bodies together. "We all know you want to fuck me," Tyler said, grinding against Chris's hard dick to articulate his point.

"Yeah," was all Chris could get out. He was too drunk and too turned on to conjure up the words.
