An investor spent 42 ETH to buy worthless “WTF” tokens after being dragged off the carpet.
Large investors in the cryptocurrency market often appear to be experienced blockchain users or traders, but sometimes they make mistakes that result in the loss of a significant sum of money. An investor just spent 42 ETH and bought almost $0 worth of tokens right after it was pulled down to 3 ETH 10 days ago.
This user’s first misfortune was carpet pulling generated by a small token called ShibTzu Inu impersonating Shiba Inu, a small token with fewer than 1,000 holders.
Since January 5th, ShibTzu Inu has fallen from $0.00000741 to $0.0000008509 in less than 10 days, suggesting that it was most likely pulled down by developers or big owners, resulting in users losing a large sum of money, who have decided to invest.
Of course, 3 ETH isn’t the biggest loss of money on the market, but this unlucky investor has suffered another significant loss 10 days after pulling the rug.
This investor reportedly attempted to buy a “WTF” token tied to a fee tracking service on the Ethereum blockchain.
