Back in March of 2024 I had taken a long break from shitcoining on eth as the market was moving to solona and decided I wanted to try my luck on the solona trenches. Week 2 of my return I saw @Darkfarms1 tweet about a presale for a token by simply sending sol to a random solona address. I remembered he was a big deal during the nft days so I decided to convert $5k worth of btc into sol and send it to him as well as convincing my roommate to send $2.5k. Shortly after sending I realized sending money to a random sol addy from a tweet I saw probably wasn’t the smartest move and started to feel pretty dumb. I could see even at only 5k I was one of the top 50 contributors to the presale. I waited all night for it to launch praying I didn’t just get my roommate and myself rugged but eventually decided I probably got rugged and went to sleep. My roommate on the other hand was on his way to the airport and stayed awake all night. The next morning I woke up to like 100 missed calls and texts from him freaking out about $bome. I went and opened my phantom wallet to see $137k. 2 days later it had grown to be over $3.3m for me and $1.6m for my roommate. One if the craziest experiences I’ve had to date
