I doubt that anyone here was that retarded. We fell for other cryptos like bitbean and FUN

checked. didn't lose to bitconnect. way before bitconnect there was a scam on the forums. you send btc they buy miners. he showed miners in pictures. he built a spreadsheet showing how much everyone would get back. a "random" poster visited and audited, posted pictures, said it was all good.
we all got scammed, guy disappeared the office space two months later.

Lmao now I remember why I first invested in crypto last year instead of way sooner. It was because I logged onto biz one day in like 2017 and I saw bitbean. I thought to myself that it sounded gimmicky so I thought crypto was at a stage of pure gimmicks. I lost interest and thought it was lame.
You seriously bought something called bitbean? I remember that my first time ever on biz the first coin I ever saw on here was bitbean. I thought it looked like a scam.
You really bought it? The thing that convinced me not to get into crypto yet? lmao

I new it was a ponzi scam. I put $1k into it. Good times. Made like half my money back before the rug was pulled. I think most people in it knew it was a ponzi.

On my trading group we actually referred to it as ponzi coin lol

I think I lost about $3k when it shut down, but I had cashed out about $6k or so.

it gave me a good laugh when I saw what happened on the board. I distinctly remember I was in the airport having just returned to the US from an international trip and i was just cracking up in line.

later that year I tried to explain to some girl at a party that I had lost money on some scam exchange and she thought i was talking about bitconnect

i hate normies

I made $90k on the first bull run. Putting $1k into Bitconnect for the kek was worth it. I'm now part of crypto history. BITCOOOOOONNNNECT will always be my favorite rugpull and yes most people knew it was a ponzi but played the game anyways was a good money spinner for the folks that got in early.
