    Yup.

    Could have put the money in stock instead and they’d likely have made a profit since then.

        Inflation can’t even lose this much money is such a short time

        The first tweet nft sold for $2.9mil and is now “worth” less than $4.

        Like it was worth anything at all in the beginning anyways

        Edit: Spleling

          Might a a good idea to buy it, I’m sure it will sell for 10$ with some haggling.
