Bitcoin and Investments: How Johnny Became a Victim of the Crypto Spree
Johnny decided to invest his last money in Bitcoin. He told his friend Bob about it and said:
— Bob, I learned that Bitcoins are the future! I decided to invest all my savings in cryptocurrency.
Bob looked at him in surprise and asked:
- Are you out of your mind? Bitcoins? It's like gambling, only without cards and casinos!
- Don't worry, I studied everything. There are many forecasts that their value will increase several times! — Johnny answered him confidently.
He bought his first bitcoins and started tracking their value every day. At first it was fun - numbers up and down, like on an attraction. But then Johnny started to get nervous. Every time the value fell, he had a crisis for the average investor.
One day Johnny met his friend Bob at a local cafe.
- Well, how are your bitcoins? Bob asked with a grin.
- Oh, these bitcoins! Yesterday they cost like 10 thousand, today - 5 thousand, and tomorrow they will probably turn into a set of prefabricated cubes! - Johnny sighed.
- Why are you so nervous? I'm investing in paintings!
- Paintings? Why?
- Yes, because when their value drops, I’ll just hang them on the wall. And bitcoins are like life in zero gravity: fun, but somehow uncontrollable!
The friends laughed, ordered coffee and said:
- Well, at least our laughter cannot fall in value!
