Really, did someone believe him? I ceased to take him seriously when an unbreakable wallet was hacked. Now I perceive it as Trump. The same emotional and the same idiot.
A lot of people did! He has a lot of follower. And I still remember when he calls a coin (he named as a "coin of the day), a lot of people buying that coin quickly. He was working like pump group sometimes and crowd was joining him. I never follow his call because I knew he is completly frauders.
