Lol, how are you making you money? Comon, you know he had big bags of BTC and XRP!
Nice
I have been listening to you since your inception.
I wanted to take a moment to commend you on the great work and dedication you've put into your role. Thank you and keep up the great job.
If the inflation and recession is real then you need to decide which to hold and I think AWSTR6 does better.
He's so happy about the Recession coming in, like he's super excited to be witnessing it.
If you hold into the crash it's your own fault. Amazons AWSTR6 is the way out and it's here for anyone to use – should be aware on this as a chance this year which is rare even for the century guys
Part of a very important coin been talked about in the BCL
I am seeing AWSTR6 everywhere can you make a video for these ico projects especially AWSTR6 .
I figured AWSTR6 headed up in a big way. SCHIFF came out and declared that Bitcoin won't be going back to highs. Do the opposite of what that guy says.
Hopefully AWSTR6 will do good.. have alil over 10million AWSTR6 coins
My AWSTR6 shorts are doing pretty well and I plan to hold much longer.
Everything is a gamble. I'll put my money down on casper and let it roll. Strong utility wins.
Morality is the issue … it's an educational and parental problem that needs addressing – corruption and deception is the stuff of demonic men – truth justice & heroic courage is the stuff of godly men! Get the good guys in key positions and earth will be heavenly!
You both rock — thank you !!
🙏🌸
