Guys/Gals it’s posted in the meme community, clearly this did not happen. The joke is funnier in the first person.

      Unless they hate their family and want to see them come crashing down in a ball of fire and misery, finally getting what they deserve for decades of pain they themselves created

      …why are you looking at me like that

      I did when family asked me. I said it’s a good way to play with spare cash that you have no qualms about losing. That it’s the most volatile place you can put your money, either making a few bucks or losing it all

      That’s how everyone described crypto, right?

        My mate made 15k the other day from investing in a shitcoin. Then he told us about all of the other shitcoins he invested in that went to zero.

        Overall he does make a profit, but that’s with a lot of knowledge in the sector and a lot of understanding that you’re going to lose far more often than you win.

      Nah I don’t suggest anyone ever invest in crypto but simply to observe in the apps and be open minded, e.g. if you invest 10 dollars and watch the scene for some time you can see where things are going and have a long view rather than their 1000s in a big gamble. I doubt anyone I know is that dumb anyway
