Chapter 8:Money and Talent Pour In
Chapter 8: Coin Information Privilege (3)
The moment I opened my eyes at 8 a.m., I went straight into the exchange.
When I checked the announcements section, one newly posted thread immediately caught my eye.
[LIAR Coin KRW Listing Announcement]
[On June 14th, at 10:00 a.m., the newly listed LIAR Coin will…]
Exactly 2 hours left.
I ate breakfast, brushed my teeth, and took a shower, yet it was still only 9 o’clock. No matter how hard I tried to do other things, I couldn’t concentrate at all.
Lowest price: 559 won.
I planned to place a buy order for only a portion of my funds at 560 won—just 1 won higher. Then, if it really hit 559 won and turned upward, I would erase even the last sliver of doubt and go all-in with the remaining amount.
10 minutes, 20 minutes.
The slow-moving hour hand finally pointed to 10.
Now!
I hit refresh, and with an “N” mark indicating new, LIAR Coin was pinned at the very top.
The chart went wild.
650 won.
631 won.
659 won.
690 won.
It shot straight to 700 won in an instant, then dropped back to 640 won just as quickly.
This is nerve-wracking.
While watching the violent swings, I placed a buy order for 10 million won at 560 won.
Come on, come down…!
Before I knew it, the price had surged to 800 won.
A sudden wave of anxiety hit me.
What if it doesn’t follow the information the system gave me?
“Hmm.”
Should I just buy now?
In that brief moment, it climbed to 900 won.
901 won.
909 won.
927 won.
931 won.
My heart pounded.
I couldn’t wait any longer like this. My finger was about to move on its own—
Nyaah—
The voice and warmth of Lucky on my lap snapped me back to reality.
“Ah…!”
In that instant, I had fallen into the swamp of greed called money.
What an idiot.
Even though I already had the information in my hands, I was acting like this.
I closed my eyes and waited calmly.
Believe it. Just wait.
Stroking Lucky’s head made it much easier to control my emotions.
Slowly, I opened my eyes.
Now, even watching the wildly fluctuating chart, I no longer wavered.
Just wait patiently.
It will definitely drop to 559 won.
What if it doesn’t come down?
Then there would be no reason to buy LIAR Coin in the first place. I was trusting the information I bought from the shop and waiting—if the price doesn’t fall, that means the information was wrong. There was no reason to gamble on meaningless information.
Ten minutes passed.
Slowly.
Very gradually, the coin’s price began to decline, eventually breaking 600 won.
599 won.
597 won.
595 won.
The price dropped rapidly, and finally, the orders I had placed at 560 won started filling one by one. Exactly as the information had shown, it was now playing out right before my eyes.
Eventually, the coin hit 559 won and held there for a while.
And then, as if it were a lie—
The price bounced upward and soared.
571 won.
577 won.
585 won.
Perhaps taking a breather, it consolidated in the 580 won range for some time.
I watched for another 20 minutes.
Only after it finally broke through 600 won and showed support at that level did I pour in all my remaining funds and press the buy button.
[Buy order filled.]
[Buy order filled.]
[Buy order…]
The moment a total of 39 million won was invested.

The cryptocurrency-related cafe was on fire for the first time in a while.

NewbieInvestor3: Let’s goooooooo!
Many people were enjoying the bull run.
Title: Finally, alts are moving!
Title: What do you guys think of LIAR Coin?
Title: Any altcoin recommendations?
Title: Wow, LIAR is pumping again
Title: The bus is departing!!!
But that was only the beginning.
That evening.
The price suddenly skyrocketed and broke past 2,000 won.
Title: Crazy, it’s gone way too high now?
Title: Any good news on LIAR Coin?
Title: I already cashed out^^
Title: Profit proof!!
Title: Seeing all these profit screenshots… this is definitely the top lol
A lot of people started making money. Countless proof screenshots flooded in, drawing envy from other investors. Around that time, the price made one big violent swing. LIAR Coin dropped to 1,500 won per coin.
Title: lol I told you to sell!
Title: Told you it was the top, didn’t I? Didn’t I?
Title: LIAR is heading to hell now, fasten your seatbelts ㄷㄷ
Title: Feels like it’s just getting started?
Title: Ugh, damn it… I cut loss ㅠㅠ
Title: LIAR Coin really living up to its name lol
Title: Everyone get out!
The drop was no joke.
1,400 won, 1,300 won.
Before anyone realized, it was already down to 1,100 won.
Title: It’s over ㅠ Half my position gone… sigh
Title: 1,900 floor rescue team, you coming…?
Title: lololol oh man, this is hilarious ㅋㅋ
While everyone was panicking and celebrating in turns, one person—Ryu Seong—calmly watched the posts without moving an inch.
“Pretty entertaining.”
There was no longer any doubt.
Only firm conviction remained. Knowing that it would approach 4,008 won, watching the cafe posts only made him chuckle.
“Cutting losses? Hmm.”
Feeling a bit of pity, he occasionally left comments.
Title: This is really tough ㅠㅠ
Post content: I put my marriage fund in here… it’s been cut in half ㅠㅠ If my girlfriend finds out, I’m dead for real… What should I do…? Should I just cut loss? Or wait it out?

ㄴHODLKing: It’s literally going to zero right now?
ㄴProCoiner: Tsk tsk, looks like you’re bag-holding
ㄴKimchiPremium: Luring noobs ㄴㄴ 4,000 won? Not even 2,000 lol You’ve completely lost it
ㄴAltKing: At this rate, in 3 days it’ll hit 400 won lol
Username: InfoMaster.
No one paid any attention to Ryu Seong’s comment.

LIAR Coin bottomed out and began to regain upward momentum once again.
Title: It’s bottomed, right? Right? This is the starting signal, isn’t it?
Post content: LIAR Coin, pleaseeeee let’s gooooo!!! Please, I’m begging you! If God exists, please just give me one shot at a jackpot! Aaaaaaaaahhh!

Thriller: …And that was the scream of someone who’s underwater.
ㄴTakeProfitNow: Please hold back on the facts ㅠ
ㄴThriller: lolololol
ㄴWorkerBee: Damn I just spat out my drink ㅋㅋㅋ
Ryu Seong stopped reading comments, opened the app, and checked the current price.
LIAR Coin 1,276 won ▲5.7%
At 9 p.m. the market had reset, and now at 10:11 p.m., it had risen 5.7%.
A decent gain.
Especially impressive considering other coins were either flat or declining.
“Still too early.”
Since he already fully trusted the information, the number 1,276 won felt pathetically low.
Just hold out for two more days.
If he endured that long, it would reach 4,008 won just like the info sheet said. Then he planned to sell everything at 4,000 won—8 won below the peak.
That would be the safest move.
Ryu Seong checked his current profit percentage.
**LIAR Coin**
**Profit Rate +115%**
**Purchase Amount** 39,000,000 won
**Unrealized Profit/Loss** 44,850,000 won
**Estimated Total Assets** 83,850,000 won
It was an absolutely staggering amount.
Just the profit alone was 44.85 million won.
“In just one day…”
He had earned more than the annual salary of an average office worker.
It didn’t feel real.
He had to keep feeling the violent pounding of his heart over and over again.
The moment it seemed to calm down a little—
Thump, thump.
His heart would pound again.
Still, the habit of obsessively checking the price every few minutes slowly began to fade.
The excitement had subsided quite a bit too.
He was gradually starting to get used to the growing number.
Of course, it wasn’t easy.
The instant the total crossed 100 million won with over 60 million in profit, his heart sank once more. But they say humans are creatures of adaptation.
The vessel was growing—slowly, but surely.
“Hmm.”
Having solid information made it much easier. By repeatedly reminding himself of the information and directly facing the swelling profits, hundreds of times a day he steadied himself. Finally, he reached the point where the numbers no longer shook him.
Around that time.
The real surge began.
Most of the posts flooding the Coin Gallery were similar in tone. Everyone was either shocked or envious of LIAR Coin’s insane rise. Some bragged about boarding late, while others sobbed about cutting losses after failing to endure a brief dip.
Every single one of them was fixated on the same coin.
LIAR Coin.
Even now, related threads were being posted nonstop.
Title: This is insane, the rollercoaster is real…
Post content: Anyone still holding through this? The volatility is brutal. Bought at 2,700 won per coin 2 minutes ago and it immediately dropped to 2,100. F*ck… Instant 600k loss. Sigh…
[Comments]
YeahRight: Should’ve been careful huh
Wolf: That’s the top lol
5thYear: Too many retail investors piled into LIAR. It’s going to zero!
As the price climbed higher, the conflict between bulls and bears intensified. Yet despite it all, LIAR Coin swallowed enormous volume and finally reached 3,000 won. But very few people had actually made proper profits. Most had bought at the highs and sold at the lows.
Title: What’s everyone’s average entry on LIAR Coin right now?
Content: Bros, drop your average prices!
Comments poured in quickly.
2,500 won, 2,900 won, 2,200 won, etc.
KnifeMaster: Anyone below 1,000? Mine’s 2,100 for reference
ㄴLet’sGo: Probably not. Never seen such crazy volatility ㄷㄷㄷ
ㄴNewbie1: ㅠㅠ I’m at 3,000
ㄴNewbie3: Peak entry spotted lol
Then one comment appeared.
InfoMaster: Average 589 won
ㄴNewbie1: No proof? What is this
ㄴ5thYear: Come on, that’s pushing it lol
ㄴLet’sGo: Does that even make sense? Can’t believe it…
Ryu Seong frowned at their reactions, then took a screenshot and posted a proof thread.
Title: LIAR Coin Average Entry – Proof Shot
Post content: See it?
[Comments]
Newbie1: Holy… it’s real
Newbie3: Hyungnim! Respect! Wow, the profit rate…!
ChairKing: How the hell did you hold from that price until now… you’re actually insane lol
IsThisReal: Average is crazy but the buy amount is also terrifying
His lips twitched upward at the praise for no reason.
Whoa, no—no.
The more this happened, the more he needed to stay calm.
The target was still far away.
