    RE: I never learn...

    You have to be get in very early on a token like that to come out ahead. Unfortunately the definition of "early" keeps changing and 9 times out of 10 it's a rug pull orchestrated by an inner circle. It's fun to take a chance from time-to-time though as long as you aren't putting too much at risk. It's pretty terrifying how people are trying to connect Bitcoin to Epstein now. I don't believe half of what is being said about it at this point, it's open source after all so there were many different people involved, but I'm worried about how it'll tarnish the coin and the community. Of course, the media will try to squeeze every drop of controversy out of the connection to whip up FUD.

      Yeah, that's the problem, you usually think you are still getting in really early, until the bottom drops out and you realize you weren't. I hadn't heard anything about Epstein and BTC it about figures though. The sad thing is, a lot of this is all starting to feel like a Greek tragedy. That's actually not what I was originally thinking, but I just got an idea for a post, so I want to hold onto it for now :)

        Right! You almost have to be close to the devs to come out ahead. Yeah, sentiment isn't great on CT right now—even long term HODLrs are expressing doubts about BTC's future. But then I can't help thinking about how so many banks, WS funds, and governments now hold Bitcoin and how this could be a ploy to get even the diamond hands to sell before BTC goes parabolic. The crypto framework bill is about to pass, a crypto friendly FED chairman will likely be appointed, all stars are aligning. Still it all feels more like a gamble now than it did before.

          Well, as you said, we know it isn't out of the realm of possibility that it is all orchestrated. I'd bet on that more than I would anything else based on what we have experienced so far. Best just to hold firm and maybe even accumulate if you can afford it.

            That's the direction I'm leaning as well. The price would be dumping hard if there were any shred of truth to this—in fact, the big entities never would have invested in such a toxic asset in the first place knowing the info is in the Epstein files and there would be the possibility of a leak.

              Yeah, that is a good point.
