RE: @zeartul "hacked." Here's what we know about him so far.
I think the most pathetic part of this is witnessing his attempt to lie to himself. Before removing his comments he was complaining that others were making money from bellyrub but not him because of the high price of delegation and the bot tracker allowing his customers to be more precise with their bids.
He is deluding himself that it was a series of unfortunate events that were out of his control that lead to this. He isn't a bad guy since others were making money. He's just paying himself back a little now with money from those that were making money off his hard work.
I think the continued comments pointing out his lies and stupidity created a state of cognitive dissonance that lead to a panicked meltdown. He is facing an identity crisis and needs to destroy truth in order to maintain his delusions.
An interesting theory. I think it was his plan from the beginning to eventually jump ship, as it follows the same trajectory as past scams of his. Gain trust, hold money, make modest dividend payments early, then disappear.
Then again, maybe he thought it would be "different this time." But I really don't think so, especially given he changed the terms of @bellyrubbank almost immediately.
Yea he could just be a serial ponzi scammer that doesn't even know how to exit smoothly.
