Sure, I agree they’ll likely manage to pull a lot of money out and not go too negative even as they drink their own kool-aid and imagine that a valueless speculation bubble is a substantive field of research.
- rvz 4y agoEven if they are 'drinking their own kool-aid' they really don't care, since they already dumped their bags on retail. [0] They know it is a scam. They will keep doing it until stricter regulations prevent them from doing so. Such as working extremely closely with multiple exchanges to simultaneously list the tokens they've invested in and use them to dump on retail as exit liquidity.

That is why they still win and rarely lose. But retail in almost every case always loses.
