They probably will make some money or also more money than if they HODLed Bitcoin only IF they're part of the CABAL that made the shitcoin. Or they could be very good traders that they could be part of that 10% that made money.

Personally, it's easier to be fully committed with a large investment in Bitcoin if you ask me. That's because it simply works. Proof Of Work works. The Game Theory works, the incentive structure. Plus it's the most secure Proof Of Work cryptocurrency.
Those Proof Of Stake shitcoin accept a different security-model that are harder to analyze, believing that they're getting something like Bitcoin. But they're NOT.
