    This video is an opinion and in no way should be construed as statements of fact. Scams, bad business opportunities, and fake gurus are subjective terms that mean different things to different people. I think someone who promises $100K/month for an upfront fee of $2K is a scam. Others would call it a Napoleon Hill pitch.

      ​@@Creatorph ​ STOP it. The dude is clearly a scumbag. He does loads of Freudian slips where it's obvious he knows very well what goes on but he acts stupid. How is that not obvious. This circular argumentative. When he very well knows "LOCKED LP" is THE MAIN marketing ploy. They used that wording because it was that what worked. Now he starts backtracking like it wasn't all that important and they really told people in the Discord they used some of the LP sometimes.

      @@Creatorph Thomas (Papa) probably was in on the whole thing, but my guess is that he was kinda left in the dark on a lot of things, and ended up just following orders (probably was planted as a potential fall guy, but got too popular amongst the "community," but that's just pure speculation). Sadly, we'll probably never know the whole truth about this. I definitely respect him more than most, especially Karony, because he's willing to actually answer hard questions (and not sue his parents lmfao), but I still think he's undoubtedly a guilty party.

      Im confused did you not see coffee’s video before this? It was heavily critical of ol’ papa mentioning him as one of the main scammers. Honestly this video was slightly less damning because Tom (is that his name?) seems genuinely confused about some of the stuff going on. Gives me the vibe of someone who was aware they were all up to sketchy stuff but couldn’t fully tell how it was all working out because who can shit gets complicated quick. It does say something when he left before shit hit the fan entirely and could’ve made way more money

      Its because his answers don’t need to be good in order to clear his name. At least not to some people, particularly the people who have bought into the scam. A lot of people will look at this and say “well he was willing to talk so that means he’s innocent. If he was guilty of fraud he wouldn’t be doing the interview” disregarding the fact that his answers don’t add up. There is an upside to getting out ahead of the issue even if your explanations are flimsy at best. He can draw attention away from himself by just throwing other people under the bus and playing dumb. From the outside looking in he’s clearly full of shit, but if your someone who’s bought into the scam you wanna rationalize it and hold onto the hope that these people aren’t malicious and scammed you. By doing the interview it does to some degree help his image, at least to certain people.

    Just so this doesn't get misinterpreted. When migrating from the v1 to v2 liquidity pool, a certain amount of each asset was obviously taken and sold to an exchange. This money was illegitimately acquired but did not actually effect the price directly since the ratio of the two assets would have remained the same. The effect this did have was decreasing liquidity and thus increasing volatility (which is what the interviewee mentioned).

      @cirion66 Před 2 lety

      I work as a dev, where I am juggled around various projects, monoliths or small simple applets... (I work with a company, that realizes custom software solutions to other companies)
      Most of the time I have no clue what the wider context or business model of those projects is and I don't care, since I am paid by the hour to do / solve very specific tasks...
      In papa's case, since where he seems like a sole developer, I wouldn't be so sure about his ignorance, but my point stands - As a developer, you are often ignorant of the wider context, unless you are also a person setting the direction and monetization of the product.
