    This video is an opinion and in no way should be construed as statements of fact. Scams, bad business opportunities, and fake gurus are subjective terms that mean different things to different people. I think someone who promises $100K/month for an upfront fee of $2K is a scam. Others would call it a Napoleon Hill pitch.

I just had this sneaking sense of schadenfreude that the big crypto holders knew that the collapse was coming and were trying to get out ahead of it.

    This legit reminds me of what happened between Oakley and Luxottica, except in Oakley’s case they stood no chance. Basically Luxottica wanted to buy Oakley as a company, but they wanted to stay independent. In response, Luxottica enforced a clause in all Luxottica affiliated stores to not sell Oakley (and odds are, even the local mom and dad show that sold glasses/sunglasses had a contract with Luxottica, so they couldn’t officially sell Oakley either). This resulted in such a huge drop in sales & Oakley’s stock price plummeted. In the end, Oakley got bought out by Luxottica by pennies on the dollar compared to the original deal.
    So yeah, imma call this pulling a Luxottica.

People are instead choosing to trust that these brokers, essentially, will not mishandle their assets and as a result are losing their assets through misconduct or negligence of a 3rd party, through no control of their own.

      Crypto will remain in a regulated enviroment, and 90% of the crypto market will die, cuz 90% are shitcoins. IT is very simple. The ones that will remain, will do real things and function in a regulated enviroment. If you want to buy these coins after everything is set, then you will enter a market with a total valuation of tens of trillions. If you want to make profit, you must risk and "swim" in a unregulated enviroment. I dont know why people are so surprised. Someone who invested at this point in time, should not be surprised by anything that is happening. It is normal. Every new tech has scams, not only crypto. In my country, the goverment implemented the free energy market, and didnt regulated it. You know what happened? People got bills 30 times the normal value. So this is not only crypto..this happens in an unregulated enviroment. Give people a day without regulations , and scams will thrive. In ANYTHING !

      That really what you want though? Is Coffeezilla on Netflix really a better version of Coffeezilla? Or watered down compromises most likely?

      I think instead of netflix, rather would be superior to be showcased by sunnyv2 ... including a collab with coffee, a major win win
