Sent me a voice in English and asked me for investment. Love these scammers. I have received more than 10 messages like this just in one week..

I love wasting scammers' time, making them think I’m their next big payday. Lately though, I think I’ve been put on their "do not scam" list.
Their grammar would let anyone know they're a scammer. If what they are asking is profitable and a real investment, I will accept their request, but even their profile picture is a fake and random photo that you can find anywhere on the net. They first ask you to sign up on a website and transfer money to buy fake bitcoin, after you follow the instructions they give, they suddenly disappear and do not give you any answer. Some trusted fellows that advised me to buy Tether when it drops and hang on to it, and then sell on a peak. The process of buying Tether is through Trust Wallet and since Iran is under sanctions, use the Alpari site as an intermediary for currency conversion and transfer which I'm reluctant to get into this type of trade.

I love the idiots on the Internet.

So this story about Goldman Sachs announcing a "stablecoin gold rush" is all over the place with breathless fanbois salivating at how it will start raining gold.

So I explain to a few of these clown boys that a stablecoin, by design, has zero returns. At least relative to the currency which it targets. Hence you'd be better off buying Labubus if you think buying stablecoins is going to make you rich.

Because, and it is even in the name, a stablecoin just sits there and doesn't appreciate relative to its indexed currency if everything goes well.

The clown posse is up in arms, saying that I'm just a trad-fi apologist. :lol:
