      You're wrong though. It wasn't this one man's fault. It was wall street giving him credibility. It was the media pumping up his visibility. It was the complicity of all those who got in early on his pyramid scheme and it was the very destiny of almost every crypto, if only people knew what a Ponzi scheme was

    My cousin was heavily invested in Luna, he had all his savings there. I had some financial issues two months ago and asked him for help, he was reluctant at first but lent me almost half of what he had there. He called me two days after the crash thanking for needing his help, although he lost the rest of his savings he knew he had some safe with me. I just paid him back two days ago and he called to thank me again this morning.

      @@0jas. As the above person stated, you are "investing" in a ponzi scheme. There is no value in it at all. Literally zero. If you did a balance sheet analysis of this idea, it would always show nothing in assets. The only way it "makes' money is being getting other suckers to put in money. You might think there is strength in numbers and that combined interest will keep it afloat. It has never happened in history to this point.

    Do Kwan actually saved me thousands of dollars. I was very close to shifting the money I had in Bitcoin to Luna when it was at about $110, so I started to do some research and reviewed his Twitter account. When I saw how he responded to legit concerns about his project with childish insults (calling people poor) I knew right then and there I did not want him managing my money. If he can't defend well thought out and reasonable concerns on Twitter, how could he defend his peg when it was under a brutal attack. So glad I passed.

    The ego of Do Kwan was massively understated in this video. Multiple tweets to Do explaining exactly how this attack could unfold beforehand were met with Do saying he "dared billionaires to try" and mocked people on twitter saying 'have fun staying poor." He literally invited this attack. And Terra was planning on buying $10b worth of BTC to back UST which would have severely impacted the entire crypto market when he market dumped BTC to try to save UST. He's in a video saying his plan was to acquire that much BTC because if UST failed, the whole crypto market would fail....essentially looping the entire asset class into his ponzi-nomics.

      Money doesn't have value if people aren't producing something that we all want in exchange for it, a.k.a earning it. Nobody bragging about short-term speculative gains is giving their money value, so it's just a collectible.
      If the dollar collapsed, are those of us who actually produce wealth going to kiss crypto holders' a**es for some of their "money"? Absolutely not; those of us with skills and a desire to be a part of something greater than ourselves will continue to produce value, and trade with each other, with no currency at all - until a new currency catches on that rewards the right kinds of people. Where do crypto holders fit into this equation? They don't, and they'll be begging for scraps - in their best case fantasy situation where the dollar actually fails.

    Just for lark (because I'm not stupid), I put $100 into Terra Luna, and a few months later it had gone up to $1400 or so. I was pretty pleased with this, and wondered how high it would go from there. And then suddenly it was gone. Oh, well, I've paid $100 for useless crap before, so no big deal. It's nice to finally hear what happened. At the same time I put $100 into Bitcoin just to see what would happen, and of course it's worth about $27 now. Now I'm stacking silver and gold coins.

      Yup, I never touched crypto but thought to throw some money at Luna at the dip. Literal throwaway money I won't miss for a second, mostly to try and understand the whole crypto thing a little better and see what happens.
      I have friends who call themselves crypto traders/investors who are now talking about strategies for me to follow and how I'm in the game now and have a good starting portfolio. No. This is gambling. This money I put in is like buying a lottery ticket.
      But it is scary. I apparently got quite lucky with where I bought because I've only had profit since and it almost tricks you into believing you have a skill and you start to wonder if you can/should make more moves. I don't gamble normally, I don't buy lottery tickets etc, so it's relatively easy for me to stick to my original plan of throwing away a couple bucks to see how this whole thing plays out, but even I can feel the pull of putting in more.

      Whenever any other system threatens the US financial system/network it will be shutdown using any means necessary. This crash was a classic case. The plan involved US crypto investment management firms Blackrock and Citadel, according to a message sent to Hoskinson by a person named Anna, who claimed to have borrowed 100,000 Bitcoins from Gemini. These firms were supposed to have changed 25,000 Bitcoins into UST after receiving the total amount.They then contacted Do Kwon, saying to want to sell a large amount of BTC for UST. They were alleged to have offered to sell a large number of BTC for a discounted price, which the latter accepted. Unfortunately, this resulted in UST’s liquidity being reduced.
      When this happened, Blackrock and Citadel allegedly dumped all of the bitcoins and the UST, causing massive slippage and forcing liquidation of both assets.The purpose of these TH-cam propaganda videos is to misdirect, slander and create convenient 'foreign villains' (Russians/Chinese/Japanese/Koreans etc) from peer competitors in order to enforce regulations to preserve the US status quo 😉

    It's very simple. You can have as many coins as you want algorithmically playing with each other, but if no one wants to buy them there is no stability anywhere. That's why I never bought any Luna. You cannot have an algorithmic stable coin and have it depend on market forces. It's impossible. You need to have some entity that's willing to issue and buyback coins no matter what (i.e. A bank or government). I know it defeats the purpose of crypto, but if you want stability that's the price you have to pay.

      Somebody gets it. "Decentralised" cannot exist without personal accountability. That is, "use it or lose it". If you cannot spend "coin" as it is, without to swapping it for another currency first, then it NOT MONEY. It is only tokens.
      Whales don't spend their coins on products because they want to become super rich should the coin become valuable in dollars. They want to spend dollars, not coin. Which is WHY crypto-coins are not stable. Any means of exchange, even gold bullion, is only useful if can be exchanged for grain. Or cars. Or fuel. Or shot gun cartridges and canned food. All of the above.
      A decentralised "currency" is only a currency if it is a useful means of exchange. This requires individuals to buy and sell their sweat and blood with the coin.The first entrepreneurs to do so are taking a FAR bigger risk than those who speculate billions of dollars on a "market" over the "coin"
      NOTICE TO ALL WHALES: spend it. Not trade. Don't convert. Spend. Spend with those genuine entrepreneurial risk takers who will sell their actual real work to you for your crypto. WORK IS VALUE! Not currency. J.P. Morgan was wrong. Gold is not money. WORK is money. J.P. Morgan was right. Everything else is credit.

      We, the real working people, have to invest significant amounts to even make an investment worth our time, like worthy for a month of hard work.. we just cant loose such income, and 10 bucks generating 30 bucks in 20years doest sound ideal.. A rich person can and do invest pennies compared to what they have, and with those pennies making an amount we could life about our whole life on.

Every coin is low at the moment but I'm sure they'll get back on track by next year at the most.

      I don't feel bad, because anyone that staked their entire savings into one entity goes against the #1 rule in investing which is to diversify. Only greedy people would put everything into one entity. The only exception is if it's your own company really.
      The market as a whole has tanked and lost money as is typical, but if you ever get into investing properly you'll also realize it has ups and downs. Those that aren't too greedy and diversify intelligently bounce back with it and tend average decent rates. Those that act like it is a casino and put everything they have on red 45 get the results that come with it.
      Could it be a conspiracy as well? Sure. But there were other factors that showed that Terra likely wasn't sustainable in general well beforehand and just like you don't gamble alll your money at casino on a single roll same here.

      Whenever any other system threatens the US financial system/network it will be shutdown using any means necessary. This crash was a classic case. The plan involved US crypto investment management firms Blackrock and Citadel, according to a message sent to Hoskinson by a person named Anna, who claimed to have borrowed 100,000 Bitcoins from Gemini. These firms were supposed to have changed 25,000 Bitcoins into UST after receiving the total amount.They then contacted Do Kwon, saying to want to sell a large amount of BTC for UST. They were alleged to have offered to sell a large number of BTC for a discounted price, which the latter accepted. Unfortunately, this resulted in UST’s liquidity being reduced.
      When this happened, Blackrock and Citadel allegedly dumped all of the bitcoins and the UST, causing massive slippage and forcing liquidation of both assets.The purpose of these TH-cam propaganda videos is to misdirect, slander and create convenient 'foreign villains' (Russians/Chinese/Japanese/Koreans etc) from peer competitors in order to enforce regulations to preserve the US status quo 😉

It was said over and over that it’s risky and if people ignored the signs and stuck in more then they could afford it lose its their own fault. It’s a hard lesson to learn and I feel bad hearing of the people feeling that ending their life is the only way out but we need to stay grounded when we invest. Some will say oh well some people were only using it for savings etc. it doesn’t matter. When you invest in cryptocurrencies whether Stablecoins or not, you are 100% responsible. If you invest in a shitcoin scam that rugs because you saw it going up and wanted some gains then it’s your fault not the rug pullers unfortunately. People can argue with that all they want and one day when regulations come that may change but the fact is that for now YOU are 100% liable for all your investments in crypto. My heart goes out to anyone affected and I hope this is just a bump in the road for anyone who lost money.

      But there's a difference when investors get rugged pulled by developers. That's just fraud.

      If they indeed are investors they would understand the risk involved with putting all their money in crypto.

    I exited Luna and UST 1 week before the catastrophic crash. Later when I heard the news regarding Luna, I was deeply shocked. Looking back, I was pretty close to losing my 3rd largest bag in crypto. Thanks to everyone who was screaming "macro is not good and it's time to accumulate cash. don't invest in altcoins in this bear market".

    I had some money in the UST Anchor scheme... Figured the 20% rate was unsustainable, but thought it would come down slowly as they started going in May (reducing the rate by 2% every month while the rate was unsustainable). Either way, seemed risky so kept the amount reasonably low. Lesson learnt - if something seems unsustainable, shouldn't try to squeeze some last potential gains out of it.
    In hindsight, the biggest mistake was allowing UST to grow beyond its organic demand - they should have kept the maximum allowed UST growth relative to the demand on retail payments, and never incentivized the Anchor lending in any way. Unfortunately Do Kwon had all the incentives to grow the LUNA project as fast he could, and that's what he did.
