Fat Man’s Story (2)
After making a decision, Fatty decided to spend a few months of living expenses to buy a mining machine from Taobao. The school dormitory cut off power at 10pm. In order for the mining machine to operate normally, Fatty rented a single room near the school.
Since then, Fatty has become very busy and rarely seen. “Bitcoin is going crazy, I’m going to get rich!” Fatty excitedly messaged me on QQ shortly after the National Day holiday.
"No way? Did you really let your little blind cat run into a dead mouse?" I frowned. The fat man has been messing around all day long, and has he really become famous for his tinkering?
"Hey, wait and see, when I make a lot of money, I can go to a star hotel for three meals a day." The fat man came over with a proud smoking expression, "By the way, don't forget to answer the teacher's roll call for me. Ah! I will definitely remember this great kindness and virtue in my heart!"
"Waiting for you to get the certificate of graduation." I replied sourly to the fat man, feeling a little envious in my heart. On the morning of November 19, 2013, Bitcoin experienced a frightening 30 minutes. Fatty’s mood was just like the price of the currency, and he rode a crazy roller coaster. That morning, the price of Bitcoin once reached 8,000 yuan, quickly fell back to 5,800, and then gradually rose back to more than 7,000 yuan.
The fat man felt that the time had come, so he threw out the coins he held and made a huge profit. Although it was not enough for retirement, it was still a large sum for a student.
The fat man finally realized his wish to smoke Chinese. He stopped living in a single room and rented an entire apartment instead.
But he never imagined that the good days would come to an end so soon. Then the price of Bitcoin went downhill, falling all the way, and by the end of the year, it had fallen below 70%. The high electricity bills and mining machine maintenance costs make Fatty rest on his laurels every day, and he can barely afford the rent of his apartment. In Fatty's own words, "I live in fear every day. I often sit up in my dreams in the middle of the night. My nerves are tied to the currency price." After careful consideration, Fatty decided to end his short career as a miner and stop working. At that time, the fat man still had a small amount of coins in his hand, "I won't sell them anymore," the fat man said mockingly, "Keep them as commemorative coins, it's worth my trip to the world."
"Then what to do next?Never dig again?
