I would actually pay like $100 to say I own the EFT some moron paid millions of dollars for. I've bought dumber things. I paid real money for a 100 trillion dollar zimbabwe bill that is completely worthless. Great for cocaine! I've also paid hundreds of dollars for 1 night of cocaine, dozens of times, and have nothing to show for any of them.

Pro tip: don't do cocaine while you still can choose.

The dude literally has a 100 trillion dollars, it's fine

Tell that to Whitney Houston.

Great advice, but I've been doing cocaine rarely for decades. Think I'll be right thanks.

Yeah i was thinking that the other day when they were talking about an 11 million dollar EFT now valued at 100 USD.

I was like, shit, I'd pay 100 USD for that one.

T'would be funny if this kind of demand drove the prices back up. Not to money laundering levels, but like to like $180 or something.

Plus imagine if another bubble came and some donkey was willing to pay a ton for it again for some dumb reason.

A 100 dollar meme like that would be worth it IMO.

BRB gonna go buy all the rump coins from the bag holders.

You can just say you did that without having to pay the money, the only thing you’d be missing is a website (that probably won’t be around much longer) confirming you did that. That’s kinda why NFTs didn’t work.

Pro tip: lie to the people around you about stupid stuff.
