No Crying In The Casino 🤦
Remember this guy from last Tuesday’s Litepaper? 🤔
For all my haters out there who so very much loved to see my portfolio swing down by $60,000,000. 👇
Just know, now you get to see it swing BACK UP INTO THE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS.
I repeat HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS.
Money that haters like you can’t even dream of having because

Well, things have gotten worse for James.
He’s gone through all the stages of what happens to a trader when it’s their first rodeo: a genius when he’s ahead, but it’s a conspiracy and ‘THEY’ ‘THEM’ ‘THE CABAL’ are out to get him when he’s losing.
And just so we’re clear, losing here means tens of millions of dollars. 😨
Since last Tuesday, Wynn found himself spiraling downward, whining incessantly about being targeted by shadowy “market manipulators” he called “corrupt mother fuckers.”
When Bitcoin dropped, Wynn panicked publicly:
I caught them live trying to liquidate me.
They sent price down to $108.7k. THAT WAS MY LIQUIDATION PRICE.
Had to reduce my position size in real time.
Good job they didn’t catch me sleeping.

Fast forward to the 29th and James beings to blame his situation on a conspiracy of THE CABAL out to get him. He starts to post things like ‘FUCK THE CABAL’. 😆
Which means something bad must have happened…
James Wynn (@JamesWynnReal) just got liquidated for 949 $BTC($99.3M) as the price of $BTC dipped below $105,000.
He lost $99M+ in just one week!

Is Mr. James done? No. 😶
He re-entered today with a long position of 945 BTC with 40x leverage. He was close to getting liquidated and had to deposit $400k in USDC to avoid getting stopped out.
Then, feeling either desperate or lonely, Mr. James wants people to join him in the fight to save his position fight the cabal.
You see, for Mr. James, his situation isn’t about his risk management being as helpful as sky diving without a parachute, now it’s a fight for you. He’s just bait:
BUY $BTC NOW.
BUY THEIR MANIPULATION.
TAKE THEIR BITCOIN FROM THEM.
I’AM YOUR BAIT TO DRIVE PRICE LOWER.

Scrambling to cut down his leveraged bets in real-time, he quickly resorted to desperate rallying cries, literally begging followers to “BUY $BTC,” shamelessly pleading:
“DON’T LET THESE EVIL BASTARDS LIQUIDATE ME!” and urging fans to “Fight the matrix!!!! Fight market manipulation!!!! BUY!!!!!!!! $BTC !!!!! NOW!!!!!!” 🤦
BUY $BTC DONT LET THE EVIL GUYS WIN.
WE GAINING POWER BUT I DONT BELIEVE ITS OVER YET.
BUY BUY BUY.

As of 1600 EST today, Wynn has shamelessly solicited financial support, and asks followers to send him USDC to save his 40x leveraged BTC position from liquidation I mean fight the cabal.
And that’s where we’re at in this drama. Look for updates in tomorrow Litepaper, can’t wait to write it. 🗞️
