alright alright

let me explain why people like kirby are scammers and why you shouldn't follow them, or pay any attention to them at all:

this is going to be a rather long thread so mute it if you are not interested.

the "real" bubble started early 2017, altcoins went x100 in february-april and bitcoin was preparing for the 20.000$ run

when did kirby join? june 2017. he already missed most of the altcoins and created his account just in time for the btc bullrun

bitcoin going from 1300$ to 19000$ attracted most of the noobs (talking from experience because I joined the space in June 2017, at the same time as kirby)

the best way to attract noobs was to tweet stuff with altcoin or bitcoin hashtags

kirby was one of them. one or two months after he created his tw account, he opened a private TG group and asked for 0.03btc (or more)

and btw

back in early 2017, opening up a private group was the most hot thing ever

almost everyone had a private group and asked for 0.01-0.5btc just to join them. I could link you many examples

so that guy who just joined the space in June 2017 with basically no trading experience at all

asked for 0.03btc to join his BUY SIGNAL group in telegram

and the only thing he did, was write stuff like "buy this altcoin at this price and sell it at this target"

90% of all altcoins died in the second half of 2017

but he still gave out "buy signals" for literally any shitcoin. 80% of his calls back then were net-losses in profit

nothing that he shared was profitable. literally nothing

"but he's making good content on youtube"

do you know who also made good content on youtube? @cryptopicasso

making a video and talking about the market takes no effort. it's not hard at all. learning TA takes you one week. every 5 year old can learn TA pattern or market struct.

all it takes to convince new people is "somehow-legit seeming content"

-have a chart in the background with support/resistances/indicators

-have a good microphone

-a pleasant voice

-some followers

and you are good to go. you can fool 80% of twitter people with this

and that's how most people scammed new people on twitter back in 2017. it's not just kirby or picasso, there was a handful of people who did this

"kirby called the bearmarket correctly"

the crypto market went from 19k$ to 6k$ to 11k$ to 6k$ to 9k$ to 6k$

saying that crypto topped at 19k back in december took no effort at all. pinpointing euphoria wasn't hard when people like kirby existed

you can read one wikipedia article about trading and you will have the same knowledge about trading/the market as kirby.

kirby doesn't know shit about trading. he has no experience. he probably doesn't even trade. he scammed people with his private group and talks about basic TA

you need experience to be a successful trader. you need losses. you need time. kirby joined a year ago and he requested money from the very beginning

most of my friends on here told me that 6k is the bottom

now we're at 45% loss. are they bad traders? no

saying that 3k is the bottom wasn't hard

kirby just made a video that bitcoin will go to 500$

if you think that bitcoin will go to 500$ you are literally brain damage

damaged

oh and I forgot to mention that crypto-kirby shilled bitconnect, the biggest scam and ponzi in recent history

if you think that kirby or trevor or picasso hold any value you are

very wrong. these people got lucky and made fake content in a bullrun to attract noobs

"buy this altcoin, it will go up"

yeah literally every altcoin went up

good fucking call.

after bitcoin and altcoins topped in 2017 these people just disappeared. picasso deleted his account because of "hate". in reality he just got outcalled

people like @kazonomics leaked DMs with picasso where he admitted to scam people.

he deleted his account

gave it some time

and came back when the shitstorm calmed down

and now to finish this:

any idea why kirby blocked most of the "famous" twitter accounts? because he is full of shit and holds no value

just like @crypto_rand

just because you have followers or make legit-seeming content doesn't mean you are a good trader

there are a lot of frauds in this space that profited thanks to these kind of schemes and I am really really mad about it. they joined at the right time

made the right kind of content

shilled the right coins

now they are rich because people paid them 0.1btc every month

if you are a profitable trader in 12 months and only traded bitcoin in 2017 it doesn't mean you're a good trader

it means you got lucky

if you called 3k bitcoin in january

you just followed basic TA knowledge

"it goes up or down"

eat my ass and go fuck yourself

these are the people he got fooled. joined dec 2017 and DMs me that kirby is a legit trader.

you won't know that he's a legit trader if you joined dec 2017.

all you will know is what he pretends to be on social media
