Investors fell victim to the Squid Game token scam
The sudden crash of the SQUID token was a major development in the crypto space as the token suddenly crashed to zero after a significant number of investors went in. This caused a major loss to thousands of investors, including a Shanghai man who lost his $28,000 life savings.
I don’t know why people keep on making this same mistake all the time, Despite that it is clear that cryptocurrency investment is a big risk. Apart from the fact that you might likely be walking into a scam, the fact that you’re also about to take a risk even if the project is legit, because the market fluctuates, that should be enough to make you think twice about how much you are investing in that asset. How could someone be investing their life savings in a volatile market? That's honestly ridiculous when lots of awareness guides are available across this forum and everywhere of internet.
Yeah people are fond of making this mistake, because they all want to get rich overnight, so they go all out and invest everything they have, without caring if it’s a scam or not. Even if I am going to take such a risk, it should be with Bitcoin, and not just any random coin. Because, if I invest my life savings in bitcoin, I know for sure that it would continue to increase in value, no matter how long.
I feel sorry for those that lost their money though in squid game scam. At least from here after they must learn lessons from such incident hence in future they will avoid all planned scams.
