I don't see Richard as a scammer, he is a speculator and an opportunist, he is openly telling you nonsense and if you believe it that's your choice. I think him and many in crypto are just the cost of doing business, and the cost of learning critical thinking skills, a fool and his money will always part ways for some or other reason

What I see is any monetary network will constantly be attacked, be that the network directly or the individuals, theres always a weak link
