Digital Social Hour
Ray Trapani: How I Lost $800,000,000 in Crypto and Survived Prison | DSH #1585

Ray Trapani: How I Lost $800,000,000 in Crypto and Survived Prison | DSH #1585

very early on like i started doing well in trades and whatnot and then like uh jason derulo happened like where like he got scammed by sahil and then like i helped run his coin and then from doing that like i did we you know i did really well on his coin made good money and then because i ran that coin like once you have like a call channel and a twitter presence and you post any sort of other coin people just like

Digital Social Hour
Ray Trapani: How I Lost $800,000,000 in Crypto and Survived Prison | DSH #1585

pay you know like people like other projects will pay crazy money to like yeah promote their coins but like where i went wrong i realized early because like i was like i missed the whole last cycle so like i was like trying to figure out this whole kol game which is like yeah that was the last cycle the celebrity kol coins yeah yeah but it's now still there's like big kols you know now it's more like a pump fund cycle right like it's more like it's a quicker cycle

Digital Social Hour
Ray Trapani: How I Lost $800,000,000 in Crypto and Survived Prison | DSH #1585

Yeah, it's a weird cycle.

Ray Trapani: How I Lost $800,000,000 in Crypto and Survived Prison | DSH #1585

Because the worst part about it is that no average person can get in the game if they can't hold a coin overnight.

Digital Social Hour
Ray Trapani: How I Lost $800,000,000 in Crypto and Survived Prison | DSH #1585
