You have a strange way of saying "Twinklevoss Bros. panic - try to offload risky cryptocurrency investment on 'tards"

I would hate to experience a state of panic that lasts long enough to enable me to create and file documents of such complexity.

They profit from this move if there is an active Bitcoin market - it doesn't matter what the price is - so I would say you need to have another look at this and see the implications.

They started out in Bitcoin saying that their investment was a simple bet on the positive outlook of BTC price. I guess the tides have changed?
