Blockchainly speaking
@virtuals_io never promised it will
1) vet projects
2) be responsible for any rugs
3) ensure the safety of all subscribers (Virgens)
4) have centralised control over Genesis Launches
When
@AskTianAI launched, the Virtuals team told me:
5) it’s a free market
6) anyone can ape in (or not)
7) they won’t shill or do anything to help me with the 24hr subscription window, it must be on our own merit
They even airdropped our tokens for free to subscribers, how generous was that!
It brought the project to immediate price discovery:
8) subscribers who believe in long term builders kept collecting
$TIAN, creating 5 major opportunities for holders to 3x, 5x, 7x, 12x and 18x
9)
$TIAN launched with a straight dump to $77k MC. I recall looking at the 212 subscribers selling down to the last 10+ subscribers on 21 April and talked to my team: “I know we are down to nothing now, but we didn’t do this because we want to get rich from a fair launch. We did this because we truly belief that the world will be a better happier place if we succeed”
The team stood by the same belief. The
@virtuals_io team encouraged us and told us this is just the beginning for long term builders. Unless we’re short term
The IRIS project was so overhyped, that almost everyone in the Virtuals ecosystem is talking about it. Even our team at
@0xGBCI farmed for almost 2 weeks to prepare for IRIS (was originally for
$BAIBY)
I would have thought it’ll be natural for Virgens, after experiencing multiple scams, fakes and rugs to look twice before subscribing
Is it really the first time we encounter multiple fake projects that have resurfaced multiple times on Virtuals?
We can only blame ourselves to
#FOMO…one of our farmed wallets invested in the wrong one by accident - yes!!! And by accident, we clicked the project details and read the shit post, LOLS
Well, one thing’s for sure, the fake IRIS is going to have the fastest dump rate upon TGE (just don’t dump the wrong one)
