Anyone get burned on the squidgame crypto??

Who would have thought it? A crypto currency that was just a con. As opposed to all the legitimate crypto currencies that are just a con.

Invested about £800 in BTC and £800 in ETH back in the summer.  BTC was around £3,100 each when invested - my investment got me 0.27 = worth just over £2K at the minute.  Just pity didn't invest last year when they were £500 each or a few years ago when I had considered it and they were £80 each and got talked out of it by another guy I worked with  :(

this must be going pretty well provided he was a hodler  8)

Here's how much $100 invested in Shiba Inu on its debut day is worth now
Meme coin Shiba Inu first hit select cryptocurrency exchanges for trading on Aug. 1, 2020, with a first-day print of $0.00000000051 per token. At the time of this writing, late in the evening of Oct. 31, SHIB tokens were being purchased at $0.00007163. It might be difficult to do the math with all of these zeroes, but this 15-month increase since its debut equates to 14,044,998%. For comparison, the S&P 500 is up about 41% over the same period.

To put this mammoth increase into perspective, imagine you had the wherewithal, stomach, and luck to invest $100 into SHIB on Aug. 1, 2020, at the above-stated price and held for the past 15 months. Your $100 investment would now be worth (drum roll)...$14,045,098. Yes, over $14 million! This would firmly place you in the top 1% of the wealthiest American households, which has a cutoff of around $11 million.

How exactly does a $100 investment turn into a $14 million moonshot in 15 months? Let's take a closer look.

think it all happened quite quick on Monday and it dropped like a stone from $2800 to zero in about 5 minutes with investors unable to sell.
was reading about some guy that bought 5000 of them when it was at a dollar and obviously lost it all.

Ether and XRP both decent enough. Threw a fiver into that shiba the other day but probably too late now for it to go anywhere.

Maybe split it and put £1000 on BTC and the other £1000 on a few altcoins.

Ethereum, Polkadot, Cardano, Matic

Returns are good enough by staying with main ones. No need to go small cap where the risk is more

As a matter of interest roughly how much are you folk investing in this. A couple of thousand or tens of thousands.

if you don't know what you're doing, putting it in your pension would be the best long term play

100/mth. Its money that if it all goes wrong won't be the end of the world. Wouldn't have the balls to be ploughing big money in watching it go up and down like a yo-yo I have been at it for a year. At the moment I would be a few hundred up so hardly life changing sums. I was probably a Yr too late to be honest but you never know
