"The Last All-In"
On March 3rd, in the early morning, Zhang Wei stared at the screen, his hands trembling.
$BTC dropped below $70,000, he shorted with 125x leverage, and his account surged from $50,000 to $700,000. His girlfriend sent a message: "Honey, let's go look at houses tomorrow." He replied: "Buy two sets."
On March 4th, BTC soared 7%.
Liquidation.
$700,000 instantly went to zero. He frantically added margin, maxed out three credit cards, borrowed from all his friends. The last $50,000 was from selling what his parents saved for his wedding.
"This time it's stable, I can definitely break even." He shorted at $71,000.
In the early morning, BTC rose another 4%.
It crashed again.
Account balance: $847.
He slumped in his chair, his phone had a breakup message from his girlfriend, and WeChat was full of debt collection messages. The sky outside was getting bright.
Just as he was about to close the trading software, a tweet popped up:
"Fabric Foundation just announced a strategic investment of $ROBO , the AI infrastructure sector is about to take off..."
He opened the candlestick chart. ROBO plummeted 80%, with a market value of only $3 million. The comments section was filled with curses: "Trash project!" "Countdown to zero!"
But there was a pinned announcement: "Fabric Foundation will integrate ROBO as the underlying token for the decentralized AI network, launching a new economic model on March 6th."
@Fabric Foundation — the mysterious organization backed by members of the Ethereum Foundation.
Zhang Wei's hand froze.
$847. Could buy 17,000 ROBO.
If it rises back to its previous high, that's $340,000. If it rises 10 times...
"Since we're all going to die anyway, why not..."
He closed his eyes and hit the buy button with all his funds.
He smiled wryly: "This time, it really is the last time."
He turned off the computer, and it was already dark #robo $ROBO .
