  • Money has always been controlled by nations and royalty since they could control the production of money, until now…and until cryptocurrency. Now anyone and everyone can make money. Not earn money. Make money. And in Argentina, Leonardo Cositorto, a lifelong scammer, and con artist, seized this new opportunity and finally found his calling selling crypto hot air, fake gold, and a whole fake cryptocurrency ecosystem. For a man who quit school in the third grade and was raised in the slums of Buenos Aires, this was his ticket to the big time. But now he’s in prison, so everything didn’t quite go as planned. And that is our tale. The rise and fall of Cositorto and the cryptocurrency Zoe coin.
    This episode of Cowboy Kings of Crypto was created in 2022.

    Thanks Mate, the sad truth is that no one has a clue, we all react to what happens as it happens and try to analyse it but can’t predict an iota of what is going to unfold in the markets… content creators are like amplifiers, when times are good they affirm it and try to tell you why it’s good and that it’s looking bullish but then all of a sudden the market turns bearish and everyone affirms it again and try to analyse why… it’s so sad that many are so powerless and it's not about guessing the market's next move; it's about playing it smart and steady during trading...managed to grow a nest egg of around 2.3Bitcoin to a decent 19Bitcoin in the space of a few months... I'm especially grateful to Rafa Manuel, whose deep expertise and traditional trading acumen have been invaluable in this challenging, ever-evolving financial landscape..

    Cypto Watchdog says (13:25) ZOE Cash is a scam because there was no back of gold as allegedly said, but... they do not say the same for Bitcoin and others (no gold neither). C'mon, all cryptos depend on people's trust, that's all. Zoe Cash could have had it too. I don't believe in cryptos, I'm not an investor in smoke.

    • @indigobluu
      @indigobluu Před 3 dny +1

      You need to practice due diligence. Who are the founders, how long has it been around, how many coins, what's its purpose, how many holders, what percentage does the top holders hold, is it being traded on reputable exchanges, has it appreciated over time.
      Unfortunately the new ones is where you're promised to make the most money but they are the most risky as well because they have no history.
      Your safest bet is always Bitcoin because it has no founders and no one truly owns it. Bitcoin is a real decentralized global hard asset and is considered property by most counties.
