🦍 I Wonder How Dave Tries to Explain His Losses to His Wife:))))😄
Meet Dave.
Mild-mannered accountant by day, crypto degen by night. He heard about DeFi from a podcast called “Number Go Up”, and within minutes, he was deep in the jungle of decentralized finance, armed with nothing but a MetaMask wallet and blind optimism.
One night, Dave found a project called “GiraffeSwap”.
It promised 120,000% APY, a yield farm named “Safari Pool”, and a whitepaper written entirely in emojis.
He thought:
"This is it. This is how Warren Buffett started."
He deposited $5,000 and got back 20 million GIRA tokens.
He felt like Jeff Bezos with a cartoon giraffe hat.
Two hours later, GIRA dropped 99.9%. Dave stared at his screen:
“Wait. Why is my $5,000 now worth... a sandwich?”
He joined the project’s Telegram group. It was full of messages like:
“GIRA STRONG 💪🚀”
“Dev just sleeping, not rug!”
“We relaunch on Solana soon!!!”
The next morning, the website vanished. Dave’s wallet still had 20 million GIRA, but nobody else on Earth cared.
Even OpenSea rejected it.
So, Dave went back to work, pretending he hadn’t been scammed by a pixelated giraffe with sunglasses.
🧠 Moral of the Story:
If a project promises 120,000% returns, you’re not investing — you’re gambling in a casino with no walls.
DYOR: Do Your Own Research (and not just on Reddit memes).
And never trust a whitepaper written in emojis.
