>find random screenshot post from 2018 /biz/
>there was someone ON THIS VERY BOARD giving out upwards of 4 ETH or more to random anons

back before this disgusting shithole was infiltrated by jeets and loony troons. /biz/ really was one of the most incredibly based boards in its heyday. There was an unmatched optimism and energy, like anything could happen. Now we just go sideways and get dumped on over and over again while jeet scam .00001 SOL from each other or whatever. So fucking boring and makes me want to puke

Do you remember the old BTC faucets? I remember em from 2009-2010, think they were pretty much gone by 2011. Still some kicking around that'll give you a couple sats

Also, this was a good reminder of why I sure hate myself

Bro those were scams of one guy pretending to give people beggars in hopes someone would see the thread and the actually send the address ETH.

I've seen every scam on here.

The ONLY time there was a likelihood of real money being given was for people doing the sharpie in the poop photos that were time stamped appropriately with /biz/ on the post it note.

It was happening during the insane euphoria late 2017 where people were making so much fucking money with ETH giving someone 1 or 2 didn't matter. People were so high on the gains they were sharing (assuming you were willing to humiliate yourself of course)

It started as a begging thread some guy was crying he got liquidated and just needed 1 ETH to get back in the game so someone made him and ultimatum and appeared to actually keep their word.

Even that could have been an elaborate scam though Lmao

This. Someone gave me .70 btc on /b/ it was worth $70 at the time and I held it until the first 1k pump and then I bought pc parts

There's way too many jeets and browns on /biz/ these days you can trust any beggers.
It's not even the fact that they're jeets, but they are newfags who don't care about board culture they just come here to prey on us white men with their scams. Maybe I would donate to an oldfag jeet who's lurked on 4chan since 2008 but yeah.
If you guys didn't experience pre 2012 /b/ and 4chan you missed out.
Luckily the Gen alpha toddlers and zoomers have basically created their own version of old /b/ on the sharty

How I pine for the 2009-2012 era

2005-2008 was fun too (pool's closed remains my favorite time), but 4chan really hit a stride around 2009.

My only regret is being too retarded to listen on BTC

he was a very strange but based dude, I think he was trying to gather white south africans together on a commune or something. He gave me 2 ETH but I didn't really understand what he was doing

You're right that most of the time it was scams, but this guy actually gave me 2 ETH and others posted proof of receiving more. It was real and I know for a fact there were other random anons that gave away a lot more ETH & BTC, too
