Winning “not even close“of millions of USD
In a recent tweet, Markus responded to the multiple questions he received from various people about his crypto-currency stash.
These questions include whether he regrets selling his crypto in 2015 and missing out on millions of dollars. He sarcastically replied that he likes the fact that he didn’t make it to millionaire because he got rid of his crypto assets too soon.
According to the tweet, every time he is asked such a question, he is reminded of this milestone – “thanks for reminding me, really appreciate it!“
i love when people ask me if i regret selling all my crypto in 2015
like, oh no, not at all, i love that i missed out on millions of dollars and a happy carefree life instead of being a wage slave living in an apartment. thanks for reminding me about that, really appreciated! 👍

Dogecoin has made other people rich
Another sarcastic response came from Billy Markus to those who keep telling him “how rich Dogecoin has made him“.
He wrote that they should thank those who took DOGE from them on an exchange and reminded his army of followers that Dogecoin was originally intended to be a joke, a parody of Bitcoin, when DOGE was launched in 2013. BTC had been launched by the mysterious Satoshi Nakamoto four years earlier.
