You're right. But I can't understand why are they posting like this. What are their advantages? They are just posting. It doesn't matter if people believed him.
So what? He will ask for money? I don't think he is. I think he is just creating SPAM.
Beats me. Usually with old trolling attempts they'd go for the pity angle, and ask for donations. Or they just wanted to troll and get a rise out of people, or wanted to denigrate whatever they invested in. I recall at least one or two for Dash, for instance, during the early days (just after a pump, while in dump mode). And there were a number of 'sold my house for btc' threads too ... again, they didn't work so well as troll attempts when btc (or whatever coin) went crazy in 17, which would have made them all millionaires -- if they were telling the truth that is.
As for this thread, no idea what the OP's point is if he didn't actually make that investment. Maybe he wanted folks to point out other coins to invest in instead? Or just thought it was a silly post since it's a huge risk, and wanted to get reactions from people? Seems weird to me, but plenty of odd people on the internet. I can't fathom why they do a lot of things they do.
