I've seen this statement time and time again and more than I care to see it. I just can't understand how anything you made a decision about is anyone's fault. Do you really blame casinos for giving people the ability to play in a game of chance and luck? Everything about crypto is a gamble it is hella volatile, you decide to get in and roll the dice. Here's an example:
First, let me say it's a sad story, I feel bad for this guy I've lost money as well not in Bitconnect cause I never invested in it, but in crypto, platforms as well as just coins and other investments. So with that being said I know how it feels it's not good, however at the same time I have never blamed anyone for any of those losses but me, whether it was bad timing, a scam, a bad decision really doesn't matter it started with me.
So when you make a video talking about how Bitconnect ruined your life and all in the same breath say "you know you shouldn't have borrowed money and that you know better than that" then throw in a but "But we were listening to everybody all these millionaires were making money" it wasn't what they said, it was what they had. Because what they said in most of all of their videos (crypto enthusiast/investors) state that they "ARE NOT" giving financial advice or claim to be financial advisors as a disclaimer they are simply showing their journey in the crypto space. Then this guy says "I guess part of it is my fault???" WTF do you mean part of it? It's All your fault!!!
Other issues I have with this video and videos like it are statements like "they knew" is pure speculation, inciting hate because of ignorance is very irresponsible on this tubers behalf. So when someone gets hurt and blames him for stoking the fire he'll be the first one talking about it has nothing to do with him with talks of how mobsters are going to take care of these nameless people but there are some "Black Dudes and Some White Dudes" that these mobsters are going to handle for us. Really? How by killing them or something I'm lost? You'll punch them in the mouth because of your lack of understanding, help me with this logic. Also, how is a Cease and Desist letter from 2 states a lame excuse? USI Tech stopped lending in the U.S for the same reason, many of these company are ceasing their operations in the U.S because of the regulations so don't just through this FACT out of the equation it is public knowledge with actual proof. But you would have been willing to move to another country to keep the money coming in from this Ponzi right? Just goes to show you If this guy was making money with his link he wouldn't have said a damn thing he would be tickled to death and happy that he didn't get screwed as bad as everyone else. He then goes on to say that the negative press was a lame excuse and shouldn't have meant anything...LMAO!!! Nothing??? this is priceless for all of the Anti-Bitconnect YouTubers and bloggers that are feeling sorry and using his "Victim Status Video" to forward your agenda. Because basically what he said was F@#K yall! All that noise you'll was talking should not have stopped his money train neither should the Government F@#K them too we need to kick their asses too...lol so much blame to go around there is enough for everyone. But you want the Government to get your money back and or put YouTubers in jail... It's too much. This guy is all over the place and so ill-informed like most the people complaining, but he wanted to be paid back in Fiat? But you bought in with Crypto (Bitcoin) funny thing about that is even if you would have gotten Bitcoin back as it stands right now Bitcoin has fallen below $9000 that is at least a $2000 drop from where it was when Bitconnect stopped it's lending so he still would have taken a lost who would have been blamed for that? Then the line about the life insurance, can you not see that this is simply an irresponsible man? whos going to be blamed for him failing his test? The promoters are like us they just got in on crypto well before most other people and had a YouTube channel and unfortunately made the mistake of allowing everyone in the free world to see how much money they were making which placed a target on them. @Trebonjb had been making videos about cryptocurrency for the last 2yrs. regardless of whether you agree with him or not this is a "FACT" I know how people don't like those anymore but the truth is he didn't start talking about Bitconnect until about 5 or 6 months ago. So point being he didn't start his channel because of Bitconnect with a conspiracy in mind to get everybody in the free world to use his link and get rich, do you think he or CryptoNick or anybody else would have stopped investing without the affiliate links? I highly doubt it seeing everyone else that didn't have the affiliate money coming in kept investing. Besides he's been talking and promoting all types of coins for 2 years including Steemit for at least a year (Jul 4, 2016).
Not to mention, he's been scammed before on different platforms, which I'm almost sure just about everybody has one way or another or taken some type of a loss, everyone is hopeful that crypto can change there life and in his case it did. Anyway, It's so many things wrong with the "I lost my savings" video but it's a good example of the mind frame of these "Victims" looking for payback.
I believe this is one of the best videos I have seen on the subject which has a Non-Bias approach with more FACTS than just outrage.
Now questions? Is anybody going to feel any better if something happens to these people? Do you think anybody is getting any of their money back? Facts, regardless of what happens you are still going to have real-world problems you need to fix, so quit wasting your time crying out to the world for help with your negligence and learn a lesson about Crypto and any other investments you choose to get into.
1.) There is no such thing as "get rich quick" anything
2.) Anything you can make money on quick involves some level of skill
3.) Never take out a loan for anything you don't have a plan for (I said plan not hope)
4.) There are no real experts on crypto, its a myth there are too many variables there are some very good people but wouldn't call them experts. They have just been doing it a long time. They can't predict F.U.D
I'm hopeful for the Steemit platform but I'm starting to see it's no different when it comes to social justice warriors who think it's their job to save everyone from their own mistakes. This gang mentality about what should be used, and who should be using it is just authoritarian. Either Crypto, Steemit, and the Internet is based on the principles of freedom or to hell with it all. Figure out what you want it to be instead of being apart of the problem.
Let me know what you think in the comments, as I'm sure there will be more hate cause that's what people do. If you weren't apart of the Bitconnect platform and didn't lose anything please do us all a favor and just STFU!

Fantastic! One great point after another.
The dude I'm the first video completely lost my sympathy whit the black dude white dude comment. What the fuck?
@summertooth Exactly sounded like he tried to correct his self after saying some black dude, Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment.
People we are all speculating here because we are not programers most people messing with crpto wouldnt know a block chain from the A Train. Speculation involves risk the definition of speculation is investment in stocks, property, or other ventures in the hope of gain but with the risk of loss. Anyone and everyone should know that crypto is volatile and let alone if you dont know exactly how something works, if you are not personally managing everything that happens their is always risk, the less involved you are with a situation the more you risk multiplies exponetially. I understand hating the daily grind I do to but you dont gamble what you cant afford to lose. Isnt that the rule?
It's the general rule but somehow everyone is to blame other than the ones actually putting themselves in these positions. In this Trump Era, we're living in facts are irrelevant i guess.
