If you love someone and want to give him a good life, you can speculate in cryptocurrencies, as there is no shortage of myths of people getting rich overnight in the cryptocurrency world.

1: The bull market is coming, even Jesus can’t stop it!
The capital market always drives people crazy, and the craziest thing in the capital market is the cryptocurrency trading market.
In September 2028, with the arrival of various negative news and the Federal Reserve's 50 basis point rate cut, Bitcoin once again broke through its previous high and rose to $250,000 per coin. Bitcoin treats every investor well! Setting new highs, the future is bright! At this time, there seems to be no reason for Bitcoin to fall again:
The selling pressure from the Mentougou unlocking has long been divided up by the market. The governments of Britain and China issued statements as early as 2025 that they would not sell Bitcoin. The United States also enacted the Bitcoin Reserve Act, and continued to purchase 300,000 Bitcoins. Until now, the US government is still purchasing Bitcoin non-stop. Together with the Bitcoins confiscated before, the total amount of currency held by the US government exceeds 500,000.
Everyone believes that after the September 2028 node, the Bitcoin bull market will start again. Whether it is retail investors, institutions, or the governments of the United States and El Salvador, they are always buying Bitcoin. Whenever Bitcoin drops by 10%, it will rise again within a week.
Many retail investors do not have strong capital to hoard Bitcoin spot, and can only hope to achieve financial freedom in the next bull market by leveraging. For the middle class, investors who can afford to buy more than one Bitcoin, their investment strategy is slightly conservative, and many use three to five times leverage to go long; many poor people who try to change their fate in the cryptocurrency circle use more aggressive trading strategies, often using 20 times, 50 times, or even 100 times leverage! Anyway, for them, there is nothing to lose. If the position is blown up, the worst thing is to deliver food or serve dishes, work hard for more than ten hours a day, and then deposit money to do high-multiple contracts after receiving the salary!
Whether it is middle-class investors or those poor proletarians, they believe that Bitcoin will reach $1 million per coin sooner or later. Even if it does not reach $1 million per coin in the bull market of 2029, if it can double to $500,000 per coin, they can achieve financial freedom. Bitcoin, is it a cryptocurrency? In fact, it is more like a religious belief!
The entire market was filled with an optimistic atmosphere, and almost no one thought that a disaster would come! If anyone said online that Bitcoin was going to fall, or talked about black swans, or brought out various technical indicators, or took out their own K-line charts, or talked about pressure points, secondary breakthrough failures and other professional terms, the comment area would definitely attract a lot of abuse:
"Idiot, all you know is to bet against the market!"
"This is for those who didn't get on board when the price reached 60,000. They missed out and their mentality is ruined!"
"You have the ability to post an empty order on the map, do you dare to do it?"
"The bull market is coming, even Jesus can't stop it, I say! Who do you think you are, you are always bearish!"
In short, in the current environment, anyone who dares to be bearish is an idiot!
However, some things happened so incredibly!
2. Satoshi Nakamoto’s wallet has moved
On September 11, 2028, at 1 a.m. Greenwich Mean Time, the Easterners had just woken up and the Europeans had already gone to sleep. Only in America it was still afternoon, but it was already time to get off work. In the office of a financial investment institution on Wall Street in New York, there was a night shift attendant who had just started his night shift.
Since there was really not much work to do in the evening, he started watching TV series again.
"The boring night shift has begun, garbage time!" He then turned on his computer and continued to watch the Japanese drama (One Piece), which he had been watching since elementary school! It has been so many years, and so many people have given up on the Japanese drama, but this guy is still watching it, which shows how boring his night shift is!
Suddenly, a dedicated computer issued a piercing alarm, interrupting his TV show. The staff member thought he had heard it wrong. Yes, this kind of alarm sound should never appear, it has never appeared before, and today, this alarm was finally triggered!
This dedicated computer is set up with various alarms, mainly to monitor the changes in the top 100 Bitcoin holding addresses, which are the addresses of whales. Any change in any address will have a certain impact on the market. The institution has set up an alarm program, and as long as these wallets have transfers in or out, different levels of alarms will be triggered.
These alarms rarely occur, and only when the market fluctuates violently, will there be abnormal changes. The amount of transfers in and out is mostly within 100 to 1,000 bitcoins, and the alarm sound is relatively mild, and generally ignored; if there is an abnormal movement of 5,000 to 10,000 bitcoins, it means that the market will fluctuate greatly, and the alarm will also be taken seriously. The analysts of the institution will analyze the details in order to make a decision that is beneficial to the transaction.
This alarm is the highest level alarm! This alarm program was not set at the beginning, but the programmer typed a few more lines of code after completing the program work. Although this wallet has never had any records of transfers, it was added to the alarm system for the sake of caution! This additional alarm program is targeted at a specific wallet. Transfers in will not trigger the alarm, but any amount of Bitcoin transferred out will trigger the alarm!
This is exactly Satoshi Nakamoto’s wallet! The wallet address ending in VFNA transferred 1 Bitcoin to the wallet address of Binance Exchange!
This guy who was watching One Piece confirmed the alarm again and again. He checked it through his mobile phone and the wallet on his work computer, and then checked the blocks and hashes on the chain. Finally, he came to a terrible conclusion:
Satoshi Nakamoto’s wallet has moved!
"Damn it, damn it, it's really a ghost!" This guy's brain froze for a moment and he could only repeat "Oh shit" instinctively.
"Damn it, the market is going to collapse!" After he came to his senses, he finally said something normal.
3. Bitcoin plummets
At the same time, in China, two young girls were still asleep on the luxurious bed in the presidential suite of the Westin Hotel in Haizhu District, Guangzhou. The quilt did not cover their legs and half of their breasts were uncovered. There were also sexy bras and thongs scattered on the carpet, as well as condoms and wrinkled and dirty toilet paper.
There must have been three hundred rounds of hearty battles last night! On the bed, between the two girls lay a man in his 30s. He was awake, and the girls on both sides tried to stick to the man even though they were still asleep. One hugged the man's waist with her right hand, and the other touched the man's thigh with her left hand. She closed her eyes and murmured coquettishly: Ye Shao was so fierce last night, I went through heaven and hell several times last night!
The man called Ye Shao by the girl smiled bitterly and pushed the women on both sides away with both hands, trying to make himself more comfortable, muttering to himself:
"Damn it! There are no fields that are ruined, only cows that are worked to death!"
At this moment, the phone on the bedside table began to send a series of text messages, almost at the same time: Binance Exchange, Euro Exchange, CoinMarketCap, CoinGlass, Google Mail, and even Phoenix News all popped up a message. Even if the phone was not unlocked, messages from various financial apps could be seen:
1 Bitcoin was transferred out of Satoshi Nakamoto's wallet!
"Fuck his mother!" This message woke him up completely. Ye Shao didn't even put on any clothes. He just sat on the sofa with his phone in his naked body. He took out a Hetianxia cigarette from the coffee table and put it between his lips. After the ZIPPO lighter lit the cigarette with a "swoosh", he flipped through the messages on his phone while muttering to himself:
"Damn it, this is not fake news!"
Before he could read the two messages, a phone call came in. It was from Lao Jin at the Yangjiang Mine. Ye Shao answered the phone, and the person on the other end immediately said hurriedly:
"Young Master Ye, something big has happened!"
“I know, I know, Satoshi’s wallet has moved.”
"Yes, that's it. Bitcoin is going to plummet soon. Um, no, it has already started to fall! Everything in the market is sold at the current price. Damn it, it has already fallen by 5%. Damn it, damn it, there are still big orders to hit it! It can't be stopped! It's falling again..."
Lao Jin should be paying attention to the market on the other end of the phone. A few minutes after the Satoshi wallet address was transferred, the market almost all fell like a waterfall. Ye Shao was still on the phone, and Bitcoin showed a 10% drop! The panic in the market made it impossible for people to react!
"You idiot, you've been with me for more than ten years, what kind of situations have you not seen? Why are you panicking?"
"Hey, Master Ye, our mine just upgraded its mining machines not long ago. The equipment cost 20 million US dollars to upgrade. It costs 120,000 US dollars to mine one Bitcoin. If the Satoshi wallet moves, we might lose money!"
"Look at how little you have achieved. I have more than just mining business. Tell the brothers not to panic. In other words: continue to pick up girls and keep the mining machines running! I have another call coming in. I'm hanging up first!"
After hanging up the phone with Lao Jin at the mine, I got through to Uncle Luo in Beijing. Uncle Luo said
"Xiao Ye, you know it now."
"Of course I know, they are all crazy!" Then he picked up another mobile phone to check the Bitcoin market. In the past ten seconds, the price of Bitcoin has fallen by 15%, from 250,000 to around 210,000!
"This is a big deal. Let's gather in Beijing as a few of us miners! Let's put aside other things, take the afternoon flight, and come to Club No. 8 to chat in the evening."
"Okay Uncle Luo, what about Brother Chen and Boss Deng? Will they both be here?"
"I'll take care of this, don't worry!"
After hanging up the phone, a girl on the bed asked Ye Shao:
"What's the matter? You seem very anxious!"
Ye Shao kept it a secret:
"Just wait and see, how many people will lose everything and jump off the building again!"
The girl continued to ask questions, but Ye Shao didn't say much:
"You wouldn't understand even if I told you. I'm going to the company right now to take care of some things. You guys can go shopping in the mall later. If you want to buy anything, use my card."
After such a big incident, Ye Shao's reaction was just to curse "Fuck your mother". Ye Shao's Bitcoin mine was facing a sharp decline in profits or even losses. The $20 million he had just invested in new equipment did not seem to put much pressure on him. It seemed that even if the sky fell, it would not kill him. As he said, many people wanted to jump off the building, but Ye Shao did not have to worry at all. Those who died were irrelevant people. What did it have to do with him?
