This isn't the first article about "traders" I've seen where it's questionable as to the detail of what they're actually doing. He "invested $50 and within 3 months it was worth $1 million". It should be obvious to anyone from that statement there's nothing normal going on there but the journalist has no questions. The absurd narrative being pumped out is you just dump money into something something crypto and instant riches. They endlessly show pictures of young people leaning on an expensive car, implying that these schemes are easy money and a sensible thing to be doing.
