Probably be the first and last time I post here, but hasn't really been mentioned much after reading all 40 something pages.
You realize the ONLY reason you guys are talking about Verge is because some kid named Peter from Austin, TX (allegedly) who goes by the name of @XVGWhaleReal, actually posted screenshots (this was Christmas Eve, Dec. 2017) of his text conversation with McAfee, discussing his paying $100k for McAfee to tweet about Verge.
Then when the MC of Verge blew up bigger than they could have imagined, McAfee got enraged and demanded more money, or else he was going to destroy them. (it wasn't those actual words, but it was still some grandiose shit indicative of megalomania - and funny to boot!)
Peter claimed his account was hacked, and then started this one:

*edit* This Peter. The one in this video talking about meeting Sunerok around the time of the McAfee tweet and bragging about the money he made. A bumpkin in his pajamas blew up a coin to a MC of over $1B. I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry:
