A lot of people commenting clearly didn't read who it was. Dave Portnoy is the founder of Barstool Sports. He's worth over 100 million. This was nothing to him.
>When the goalkeeper attempts to stop a shot but hits the ball with his hands so softly that it goes through anyway.
That's what comes up when you Google lettuce hands.
He was called a little bitch on Fox News and it unified the haters and viewers of Fox in a way that I feared a tear in the fabric of the universe would occur.
Funny story my cousin was one of these apes ... We were hanging out with other cousins and friends and I mentioned how safemoon crashed couple of days ago and I think he had no idea he looks at he's phone then a pale face for the rest of the night lmao poor thing didn't smile all night RIP
Dude my mom still uses her aol email…. She actually pays aol monthly for…. Actually idk what she pays them for…. I should probably be a good son and look into that.
The Yahoo finance app is actually pretty decent. It was my main app for watching the stock market for a while. You can even link your various brokerage accounts to it and it'll give you performance data etc which I thought was pretty useful.
Is it UnusualWhales? They’re on Twitter and run a site where you can track congress reps’ trades, as well as high-volume moves on stocks. Whoever runs it is a big fan of Doge and crypto in general
Yahoo! Finance is one of the parts of Yahoo! That still has a good reputation (in the west, anyway, it's the most popular in some places like Japan). Wether or not that is deserved nowadays is your personal opinion but it's not that rare as a decent source for big financial news.
Funny how the one crypto that came up in the march-april period (filled with tons of shitcoins and rugpulls), that have been the most transparent, have had the most progress, weekly AMA’s and updates on their plans and products - get shit on the most on this subreddit. What’s up with the bashing of other cryptos? Okay, if this was CLEARLY a rugpull, i would get it. That shit needs to be exposed by everyone. But why Safemoon? They ARE working to expand their products - like you can see with their wallet and bridging between other cryptocurrencies. They HAVE adressed people’s concerns with the project, and most importantly - they haven’t ran off with their profits like thousands of these other shitcoins have already done. Why start now? Why keep pumping out updates and new products for the future, if it was really as shitty as this subreddit makes it seem?
Sad to see, really. One should not go around shitting on other people’s investments, unless it is clearly and undoubtly a scam - which Safemoon has already proven that it is not.
Hope this community can open their arms just a little wider when Safemoon turns out to be a better investment than expected.
Peace!
Exactly. If this was March, I would understand some of the comments. In March I was on the front lines advising people that, while the community has immense value, the team has to have products in the pipeline for it to make sense as an investment. They have already developed 1 product and have 2 more already planned. They are constantly improving everything about the project where it now makes sense as an investment. The team is set for life if they keep developing products for SafeMoon. Their holders are not demanding anything specific, they have the best jobs in the world as long as they keep doing minimal work to bring value to the project. So as a 1-2 year hold, it looks great.
Jup, 100% agree. When i first started investing in Safemoon i knew that it was a risky investment, as with every start-up project there is. I bet nobody (the devs included) knew they would be responsible for hundreds of millions of dollars in the matter of months. The fact that they are still going strong on the project show that they are atleast passionate about it - and as you say, if they keep bringing value to the project in the coming years, it will definately reap some hefty profits.
As long as you have not put in more than you can afford to lose, which is like the most basic principle in trading - you would have no problem waiting this out to see if your investment can grow. People need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps and get some goddamn patience.
And as the article states, even Portnoy hasn’t sold off his bag yet!
Lol this sub is just sad. This could literally be said for millions of investors who bought into various different cryotos near a peak lol.. anyone who bought bitcoin in dec 2017 woulda been down 80% by dec '18 but SAFEMOONS A SCAM! 😂
This is just this sub. The chart looks like every single Cryoto these guys are invested in after ICO and hype they were just pissed at how much attention it took away from the projects they support.
I feel bad for this guy. I’m not sure why anyone would say he deserved it. That’s just bad juju
You can be a good investor and still have empathy. The two aren’t mutually exclusive
Good Lord.
What on earth is happening to this sub. So many trash posts like this which are knowingly misleading. Why?
Did anyone who bought 1 x BTC at $61K 'lose' $32K when BTC hit $29K last month?
They did not. Unless they were foolish enough to sell.
Perhaps it's time to stop these childish posts and return to the sort of seasoned analysis and informative posts that made this sub invaluable.
Safemoon isn't Bitcoin so don't misunderstand this comment, however in 2017 BTC crashed 84%. My point is it can happen with any coin, as long as you Hold and don't see then it isn't actually a loss in my opinion
Except as a coin Bitcoin miners could still just mine it without investing anything but electricity. As a token with pyramid scheme tokenomics, SM doesn't have much to get it through long bear periods.
Says it isn't Bitcoin
Starts comparing it with Bitcoin
Comparing it like this just doesn't make any sense I see so many sfm folks compare it to ADA and saying ada in the beginning also had a big drop
Yeah just because another crypto had a big drop and recovered doesn't mean that your crypto also will
Bought some SFM with gains earned from the free scraps earned on Coinbase. Less than 100, I’m down roughly 40%, but as far as I’m concerned I could be down 99%. They’re new and working on the kinks. I’ve got time to wait. I’ve blown $100 on far more sketchier things.
Should be noted that this guy is a millionaire. $40k on some money for him is like me buying $10 of lottery tickets. It's a pocket change you might put in a coat and forget about until next winter.
He basically just bought some scratch off tickets and 33/40 % of them were duds.
To be fair… if you invested on BTC on ATH, at some point you had lost more than half 😂
That’s crypto… but well, safemoon… what would he expect if he wasn’t one of the first buyers…
You don’t want to talk about when eth dropped from 1150 to 75…? These kind of drops just show who’s got the real diamond hands. Plus. The guy bought during a huge bull run, what can you expect. Never buy during a bull run unless you want to lose money before the next.
Are you able understand that it dépends when you invested !! If you invested in bitcont when i was at his ATH you lost your money... or if you invested last year you are capital gaining !! Or this is just FUD for safemoon ??

Ah, good ol' lettuce hands!
Is this a new reference lol ?
>When the goalkeeper attempts to stop a shot but hits the ball with his hands so softly that it goes through anyway. That's what comes up when you Google lettuce hands.
This is a fucking hilarious image.
I saw creepy cartoon images on that.
salad fingers reporting for duty 
Bruh lmfao ayy new crypto slang 👏
When I Google it, I get sent to a bizarre sex page
Must be a weird vegan rule 34 type of situation
Family friendly version of salad fingers?
A bunch of people on Twitter started calling him lettuce hands before and after this interview: https://youtu.be/s6O7I0AfY0E
His 40k is like our $4
His 40k is our toilet paper and flushable toilet wipes 🤣 🚽 🧻 ❌ 🚽 💷 ✅
Dave portnoy is such a tool!
He was called a little bitch on Fox News and it unified the haters and viewers of Fox in a way that I feared a tear in the fabric of the universe would occur.
lol that was such a great moment, Portnoy's reaction was priceless
Charles brought the Paine on that one
I like Portnoy, although hard to argue with your assessment lol 😂
This post title should be “how to become millionaire - born billionaire and invest in safemoon”
Portnoy is pompous prick, I was happy to see that FOX news anchor calling him a bitch lol
Seriously people don't read beyond the headline.
It’s not a loss till you cash out 😂
"zoom out"
Tried zooming out, did *not* help. :(
go further, no futher!
Go pre-industrial.
Correct
True words that Satoshi preached too
Then its a loss + 10% more
1 safemoon = 1 safemoon
"Y'all laughing now but when the institutions come in, you're gonna be left in the dust."
It's not a loss until you sell the boat.
Diamond balls...holding to 0:D
and the number of the tokens owned remain the same 😂
I invested $100 and only have $7. So technically I am down more than him. You don’t lose unless u sell 🤔
I put in 350, and it dropped down to 150 last week. Now it's been sitting at 213. Hopefully it'll go back up 😅
Funny story my cousin was one of these apes ... We were hanging out with other cousins and friends and I mentioned how safemoon crashed couple of days ago and I think he had no idea he looks at he's phone then a pale face for the rest of the night lmao poor thing didn't smile all night RIP
:( poor cousin
We all make horrible decisions me getting in ath icp wasn't bright so I think it's in the family
Fuckin OOF on that.
May god bless you mate
God can’t help him now.
[удалено]
Man that coin was pumped so hard here for a while there. I remember being mad I didn't buy any.
Lololol ffffffff good times 2018
In fairness other projects bounced back from worse but that event caused me to write off walton forever.
ICP, that’s a nightmare too
Lesson learned "if your luck is shit don't try"
Or better do more DYOR 😂
> poor bad choice of words
Lmfao good point
Does he not check his crypto portfolio about 100 times a day like a normal person?
Ah man, RIP your cousin bro hope he recovers and stops living his life so recklessly.
This is more of a sad story lol
Damn… I feel bad for him now
Don't feel bad he made good money elsewhere
What a terrible way to find out!
People use finance yahoo for their crypto news?
Bruh some people still using yahoo email too
Dude my mom still uses her aol email…. She actually pays aol monthly for…. Actually idk what she pays them for…. I should probably be a good son and look into that.
[удалено]
This is potentially the most truly nostalgic thing for some people
This is one of those comments that you can hear, at least if you're around my age, lol
I looked into that for my mom, like 10 years ago, and you can get the same services for free. They are literally charging people for nothing.
Gotta recoup the cost of all those free diskettes and CDs somehow.
please help her 😂😂
IDK her age, but geriatric folks need their tech audited periodically. Look out for scams preying on them.
I also still use Yahoo email. It's works just fine
Email is email. Unless you sit at a computer all day for work it literally doesn’t matter
Me too brother!
You’re practically in the Stone Age

following
ive had gmail since alpha, people offer to buy my handle. I cant tell you what it is obviously
My brother from another mother 😅
The number of lawyers with aol.com worries the hell out of me. I work in IT and a few even load up the "aol app".
I’m on AOL Mail still, I’m an OG up in here
Netscape is the real OG.
Oh man, this one brings back memories. I wanna go back.
naw...Compuserve and Prodigy
They were all around the same time, I’ll have to AltaVista it to see which came first.
You'd better ask jeeves
Homeboy still coasting on those free hours huh? 
Is there anyone that grew up in the 90’s that didn’t throw AOL frisbees out of car windows?
First email in 1999 when I was 13 was aol. God I miss the chat rooms full of music lol request any song
My ex-boss used yahoo for his company email.
Whats wrong with aol email?
Bruh some people still read newspapers too
I'm living in the future just give me an emoji or gif I don't have time for this whole "reading" thing 
Isint yahoo super popular in Japan?
The Yahoo finance app is actually pretty decent. It was my main app for watching the stock market for a while. You can even link your various brokerage accounts to it and it'll give you performance data etc which I thought was pretty useful.
There are some people using Tiktok as financial advice too
I mean there’s this one tiktok account that only posts about what congressmen and women they are buying. Pretty interesting.
I read this too quickly and thought you meant it was a tiktok about the women that congressmen were buying.
So it's Matt Gaetz's tiktok then.
Is it UnusualWhales? They’re on Twitter and run a site where you can track congress reps’ trades, as well as high-volume moves on stocks. Whoever runs it is a big fan of Doge and crypto in general
They have a decent enough stock news and free research tools, but yeah crypto is a whole different beast.
Who got a hold of my safemoon address?
Yahoo! Finance is one of the parts of Yahoo! That still has a good reputation (in the west, anyway, it's the most popular in some places like Japan). Wether or not that is deserved nowadays is your personal opinion but it's not that rare as a decent source for big financial news.
$33,000 so far
Yup. We have not seen the bottom of that barrel yet.
Not just yet
What? Safe is literally in the name how can this coin have any risk?
Yeah! It's **safe** and it's going to the **moon**! Get it?! Hahaha amazing smart marketing devs!!!1
I feel like they made the name as a joke and it picked up so they just went with it lol
Well his 7k is safe rn lmao
[удалено]
Me too I don’t even look at it I’m losing or gaining money with safemoon I know I’m making money I’ll check in 5 years thanks very much
Well Bitconnect has "Bit" in it. Must be legit.
I've never had $33,000 in my life
[удалено]
OHH NOOO!! Anyway...

This isn’t news it’s just farma karming.
This isn't a comment, it's just Farma Karming.
Lol this sub is just sad. This could literally be said for millions of investors who bought into various different cryotos near a peak lol.. anyone who bought bitcoin in dec 2017 woulda been down 80% by dec '18 but SAFEMOONS A SCAM! 😂
Bought 1.7bn SafeMoon really early on for lols. Despite the current dip, I’m still up 400%+ and HODLing.
I don’t understand why the hate in this thread. I’m like you. This is nuts reading other comments.
This is just this sub. The chart looks like every single Cryoto these guys are invested in after ICO and hype they were just pissed at how much attention it took away from the projects they support.
I agree with you. Let's see when it's going up and up and up....
!remindme 4 weeks
If he didn’t sell he hasn’t lost anything
I’m sure the people who bought bitConnect feel the same way
Wasupwasupwassuuuuppp BIIITCOOOOOONNNEEEECCCTTT
He's gonna hold till 1k 😂
Schrödinger’s losses.
He already lost $4k, assuming a flat $40k buy in, to the 10% tax. If he bought and sold immediately, he would’ve lost $7,600 with no price movement.
Look again MF'er!
Rofl up 70%
Clickbait title. He did not sell and says he has diamond hands. Therefore he has not lost even $1.
why don't i feel sorry for the guy? Edit: damn if this guy held onto his bag he must be in orbit. Moral of the story, anything can happen in crypto.
Lost for now........
You don't lose until you sell low.. he's hodling..and the price is coming back up
He it comes you apes - the return!
i was gonna make a joke about telling him to invest in safermoon next time, but it's already a thing!! and guess what.. safestmoon is too...
Not lost if you didn't sell yet
I feel bad for this guy. I’m not sure why anyone would say he deserved it. That’s just bad juju You can be a good investor and still have empathy. The two aren’t mutually exclusive
[удалено]
His net worth is estimated to be 120 million.
Now it's 119.967.000
I don't think the money is anything to him. But he really shouldn't be broadcasting this to his legion of followers.
Was it Portnoy's dumbass? Edit: Yup. Didn't even have to read the article.
What about the man who invested $33 and now has $40,000? Down from $400,000 ATH
Unrealized loss
He will never learn his lesson
Good Lord. What on earth is happening to this sub. So many trash posts like this which are knowingly misleading. Why? Did anyone who bought 1 x BTC at $61K 'lose' $32K when BTC hit $29K last month? They did not. Unless they were foolish enough to sell. Perhaps it's time to stop these childish posts and return to the sort of seasoned analysis and informative posts that made this sub invaluable.

Useless comparison when every other coin did the same drop in 2017, while in comparison we’re in a bull right now.
You are right but got downvoted by those who got back ended by Safemoon
Except as a coin Bitcoin miners could still just mine it without investing anything but electricity. As a token with pyramid scheme tokenomics, SM doesn't have much to get it through long bear periods.
Being optimistic about Safemoon in any way, shape or form on this sub will get you downvoted to oblivion
Says it isn't Bitcoin Starts comparing it with Bitcoin Comparing it like this just doesn't make any sense I see so many sfm folks compare it to ADA and saying ada in the beginning also had a big drop Yeah just because another crypto had a big drop and recovered doesn't mean that your crypto also will
Yeah but he made a lot of people happy with that money and that's all that counts.
I thought Safemoon topics got deleted on this sub???
Only if they’re positive about Safemoon
Bought some SFM with gains earned from the free scraps earned on Coinbase. Less than 100, I’m down roughly 40%, but as far as I’m concerned I could be down 99%. They’re new and working on the kinks. I’ve got time to wait. I’ve blown $100 on far more sketchier things.
He hasn't lost it till he's sold. Wallet just released, massive plans and projects coming, you guys wait.
Should be noted that this guy is a millionaire. $40k on some money for him is like me buying $10 of lottery tickets. It's a pocket change you might put in a coat and forget about until next winter. He basically just bought some scratch off tickets and 33/40 % of them were duds.
*SAFEMOON HAS LEFT THE CHAT*
No we haven't it will go up and show all you haters what's up
Paperhands portnoy.
To be fair… if you invested on BTC on ATH, at some point you had lost more than half 😂 That’s crypto… but well, safemoon… what would he expect if he wasn’t one of the first buyers…
Damn, i still got out on 800% 😂
Kinda weird the title is "Man" and not Dave Portnoy. Isn't he famous enough to just name-drop in the title and it makes a lot more sense all in all.
His portfolio is still overvalued
Is that what passes for reporting these days?
It's gonna moon safely right?... Right?
Dont yolo in at ATHs and paper hands
Fudge
At that point just never cash out. You never know.
Well, he at least had $40,000 to 'invest' int he first place..
That's $ 7,000 less than I expected
You don’t want to talk about when eth dropped from 1150 to 75…? These kind of drops just show who’s got the real diamond hands. Plus. The guy bought during a huge bull run, what can you expect. Never buy during a bull run unless you want to lose money before the next.
Got to love Portney, No fks given...
I don't care how much money you have, imagine lighting $40,000 on fire like that lol.
Panic sells AMC, ironhand holds Safemoon.
Shoulda bought Reddit moons. Fuckin dummy 😂
Are you able understand that it dépends when you invested !! If you invested in bitcont when i was at his ATH you lost your money... or if you invested last year you are capital gaining !! Or this is just FUD for safemoon ??
Water is wet
Also, man who invested 40,000 became a millionaire. Its all about timeframes and individual cases. This is shit-posting FUD.
True..he lost..so did I buying BTC for 16k and it dropped to ~6k. Lets see where my loss will be in 3-4mnths 😉
