The one that I always remember is how they shilled for Solana immediately before it crashed hard. (I have never had any position in any crypto)

I feel like their show has an implicit subtext where you’re expected to understand when they are lying. You get to feel smart by recognizing when they’re just talking their book.

The tricky question is whether there is any value in the podcast besides understanding their book.

If you purchased Solana at that point and held it, or purchased it during that crash, you would be very happy now.

I don’t think it’s fully returned to the level it was at when the episode aired (I forget the exact episode so I can’t say for sure), but you do have a point.

Certainly anyone who bought Solana after it crashed did very well:

Week before FTX crash it was 24, just before the crash (FTX crash happened after Breakpoint where Google announced they were running Solana validators and Meta added Solana support to Instagram) it was 36, it crashed to 8.

It's now at 180-ish.
