Internet personal broadcasting, where the number of viewers is the profit, must broadcast newer and more stimulating topics every time.
However, no topic can be new and exciting every time.
Adding exaggeration, mixing lies, and eventually crossing a line that shouldn’t be crossed.
At first, I also considered this situation to be one of those things that are common on the Internet. So I thought of punishing and ending it in an appropriate line.
For example, 100-year suspension of personal broadcasting, or forced conversion to unprofitable channels.
But what is this? After investigating the background of the broadcasters, I found out that this situation is not a ‘common occurrence’.
“What are you doing? Turn on the mic again!”
“Hey, let’s not play around.”
“Turn the mic back on! Where is this for a discussion?”
Broadcasters point to the off microphone and scream. Judging by how they bark, it seems that they have no idea what kind of situation they are in yet.
“I say it again. I’m not here to debate. I’m here to expose the dirty truth you’ve been hiding.”
When the word “exposure” comes out of my mouth again, the broadcasters who were protesting flinch. There are a lot of dirty corners, so that kind of reaction came out as a reflex.
Not everyone was like that. Sometimes, like a sociopath, there are people who have no remorse.
“expose? Don’t talk nonsense. Are you saying you’re going to drag me into the mud because you’re scared?”
A man with rainbow colored hair steps forward.
As he raised his voice, other broadcasters also returned to their shameless faces.
From noble mtl dot com
‘That guy is the leader.’
I gesture toward the situation room to turn on the rainbow-haired microphone and start talking.
“I watched your broadcast several times. Throughout the broadcast, they talked about why they had to sell acorn coins.”
“why? So you’re going to embarrass me like this because you’re pissed off?”
“no. Rather than pissed off, I was too tired. He screams non-stop, but his pronunciation is not good and his content is poor… … There’s a reason why their broadcast has fewer viewers than other broadcasts.”
The opponent was managing his expression, but he couldn’t help it until his face turned red.
“It’s not important whether it’s popular or not, so let’s just move on. The real thing is next.”
“What else are you trying to find fault with?”
“Listening to the broadcast, there was a comment that came out repeatedly. Acorn Coin will soon perish. get money fast and… … .”
After taking a break for a while to gather our eyes, I spit out the words clearly.
“Because buggy coin is promising, change quickly.”
When the word buggy coin comes out, his expression, which he has been acting so far, wriggles violently.
“What’s wrong with that? Promising coin recommendations are natural in broadcasting.”
“That’s true, but strangely, the same story about buggy coins came up in the broadcasts of other people gathered here.”
“Don’t force yourself!”
“hmm. A virtual currency recommended by multiple broadcasters at the same time at some point. Because it is so suspicious.”
“It’s a coin worth going up, so everyone recommends it!”
“Isn’t it actually an advance purchase?”
Pre-purchase refers to the act of reselling a stock after recommending it while hiding interests in the stock.
In this case, the coins purchased in advance were recommended to viewers, raised the price, and then resold to make a profit.
“It’s all bullsh*t! I recommended Buggy Coin because it has certain good news!”
“Oh, good news? Could that be this?”
When I send a signal with my hand, a data screen appears on the screen installed behind me.
A few days ago, it was a broadcast video of Coin Doryeong.
He must have drunk a lot, his eyes half-closed, and his pronunciation was a mess.
-Do you know why I told you to buy a buggy coin? It’s all about wishing you well. Big news coming soon. Hey, it’s a secret, don’t tell me.
-okay. I’ll tell you a little bit about our VIPs. The buggycoin developer is from Saudi Arabia. It will be announced soon that it will be used for oil trading.
– It’s not a lie. As for why oil is traded with virtual currency, there are countries that cannot use dollars due to sanctions by the United States. I use virtual currency to secretly trade with such a country.
At the same time as the video ends, the broadcasters stare at Coindoryeong. He uses stuttering words as excuses.
“I’m sorry… … I drank a lot that day, so I remember… … .”
He turns the topic to me, as if he didn’t want to.
“Uh, anyway. It’s true that there are great benefits! We just recommended the coin to everyone to do well!”
Coins are a complete zero-sum game.
When someone gains, someone else has no choice but to lose. So, to say that it was for everyone is a blatant lie.
“If the buggycoin is used for Saudi oil trading, it is a good thing. But what if it’s false?”
“Do you have any proof? Don’t make a fuss without proof.”
“hmm? I asked the Saudi side, and the answer came that they did not know at all.”
“How do you ask that?”
“How do you ask? The largest investor in the softpow fund that bought Acorn Coin for $500 million is the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia.”
The broadcasters don’t want to do it, so they gather among themselves and start talking about something. I still can’t seem to get rid of this scam.
I put a wedge in the revamped work of such broadcasters.
“You haven’t forgotten, have you? This is going out live. So everything I just said must have been broadcast.”
In an instant, their expressions harden.
Regardless of the truth of my claim, the trust in buggycoin has already collapsed. If so, what follows after that.
catastrophic collapse.
Broadcasters urgently start digging into their pockets. They had to sell the buggy coin they were holding as soon as possible.
But there were no cell phones in their hands.
This is because before the live broadcast started, they made various excuses and collected all of them.
“sh*t! My cell phone!”
I mutter to myself as if to ask them to listen.
“oh? The buggy coin has already hit minus 70%. Is this the magic of live broadcasting?”
The rest of the broadcasters are in a hurry and rush to me.
“Where did you put my phone? I’m in a hurry! please hurry up! hurry!”
“Why are you looking for your phone all of a sudden? You didn’t buy buggy coins in advance, did you?”
“Don’t play around, give it to me quickly!”
I smile and point to the table in front of the camera.
“If it’s a cell phone, it looks like it’s piled up over there. Would you like to go?”
The broadcasters rushed to their phones before I could even speak.
Like a group of thieves, they push each other to get their phones first, and after a physical fight, they manage to pick up their phones.
But it wasn’t a problem that could be solved.
“I can’t access the Internet on my cell phone!”
“sh*t! It’s because the set signal is weak.”
“Look for a signal. Or even the wifi password!”
The more broadcasters make a fuss about selling coins first, the more rapidly the market price of buggy coins falls.
The market price, which was -70%, has already fallen to -90%.
“I must get out of here! Where is the exit?”
“That way! get out quick! hurry!”
“sh*t! You, let’s see!”
Broadcasters spit disgust and run to the exit.
Even if I go out, it will be useless. Except for the broadcasters here, they must have already sold all the buggy coins.

WHTS Company’s cafeteria opens at 8:00 in the morning.
At this time, the cafeteria is operated in a form similar to the breakfast corner of a hotel.
You can eat prepared sandwiches, salads, cereals, and gimbap at the restaurant, or you can go to the office with just the food.
In the early days of operation, the staff were unfamiliar with it, but now it has become so popular that they cannot bring food because they do not have food when they come late.
“The number of users of the point conversion benefit introduced this time is increasing. It seems that the newspaper advertisement targeting the elderly has been effective.”
“The slowdown in Watts Pay’s PPO is likely to affect the consensus among investors. Accordingly, the Pei development team… … .”
Today, the cafeteria is also crowded with employees from the morning.
At some tables, the team gathers and sits down and handles the morning meeting at the same time as breakfast.
In the meantime, the news on TV, which I was talking about alone, catches everyone’s attention.
– This is the next news. The police launched a direct investigation into the Coingate incident, which became controversial through a live broadcast.
Coingate was a case that CEO Seo Woo-jin stepped forward and handled.
Employees were also watching this incident with interest, so everyone listened to the news as if they had promised.
-It turns out that famous Internet broadcasters tried to make unfair profits by recommending and reselling the coins they had accumulated in advance through the ‘advance purchase’ method.
-According to the police investigation, it was revealed that they had accumulated buggy coins worth about 2 billion won in advance. The police charged them with violating the Capital Markets Act… … .
-However, as the false information was spread through live broadcasting, the market price of buggy coin dropped by 99.8%, so it was not possible to make any real gains.
After the news ends, the restaurant, which had been quiet for a while, is bustling again.
Originally, there was a conversation about work in the morning, but now the story of Coingate mentioned in the news is pouring out.
“The police moved in this case. Isn’t this the first time the police have directly stepped forward in a cryptocurrency case?”
“Our representative stepped forward. So the police had no choice but to pretend to be moving.”
“Is the Coingate case going to reduce fraud in the cryptocurrency industry a bit? Until now, it was practically a lawless zone.”
“Aren’t you going to cheat them saying they’re cracking down? Rather, it will have the effect that the people do not fall for coin fraud. This live broadcast alone has millions of viewers. The media is also covering it.”
The true face of fraudsters revealed in front of millions of people.
This broadcast was enough to instill awareness of virtual currency fraud even for those who are not familiar with cryptocurrency.
“By the way, manager, will there be punishment for violating the Capital Markets Act? As far as I know there is no law related to cryptocurrency yet.”
“punishment? There’s no way. Courts will never recognize cryptocurrency as an asset.”
“Why?”
Before I knew it, the next table and the next table were focusing on their story.
“The government pushed Arirang coin a while ago. I installed it to catch up with acorn coins, but what happened to that?”
“I was blown away. It was a slick scam.”
“That’s why they don’t recognize it as an asset. If you make a mistake, the government will have to ask you everything, so will you do it?”
“aha. I hear and see it.”
“Besides, there is a rumor circulating in the industry related to the Arirang coin… … .”
Just in time, the Coingate news ended and the political news was playing on TV.
– The president’s approval rating was 25%, the lowest ever. Among the negative evaluation factors, for the first time, suspicion of controversy over preferential admission for Choi Myung-ja’s daughter was included. It’s still just a suspicion, but the impact… … .
The manager, who had been watching the news for a long time, muttered in a much lower voice than before.
“If that thing goes right, Korea could turn upside down.”
