@molly0xfff How much did they cost?
@molly0xfff if only those people listened to:

@molly0xfff I don’t want to doubt the impact, but those statements sometimes sound pretty weird to me. Those don’t really evoke sympathy from my side and they all obviously omit stuff.
@molly0xfff This is such a depressing story.
People in desperate circumstances lured by unrealistic returns by scammers who take advantage of the human condition.
In one sense it's hard to feel too much sympathy for people who think a return of 19-40% promised by a crypto-bro is a safe "investment"; but this is such a pervasive problem that it's impossible to ignore.
I wish I knew how we could make the average Joe and average Joanne much more suspicious of scammers.
@molly0xfff I have some sympathy for these people getting caught in a scam, but if you're dumb enough to invest in crypto this is what you get. Caveat emptor.
Where do you file victim impact statements for Pacer graft, err costs?
@molly0xfff Modern states should ban crypto trading, as China does, and not benefit from it. In Spain, crypto are considered a financial product and profit on crypto trading is subject to the same profit taxes as SE trading.
Our modern and complex societies are built on trust, if a State allows its citizens to trade crypto is because it has considered that market safe (when in reality is closer to lottery or a Ponzi scheme). Crypto trading should not be allowed in first place IMHO.
