[00:00] A secret faceless crypto trader has been  gaining hundreds of thousands of followers   recently on X and he might be known for being  one of the best crypto traders of all time.   His name is GCRclassic. He started with just $1,200   [00:15] and is estimated to have traded that  up to close to 1 billion dollars.   That s fn insane. But what makes this twitter account so special, is   that he recorded nearly all of his trades in real  time by posting them on X before he even entered.   [00:31] But how did he make all of this money? In order to figure that out we have to go   all the way back to August of 2020. Do you remember this coin?   [01:37] Yes, that is shiba inu. This coin went absolutely parabolic.   I actually remember going into a chipotle  while this coin was blasting off and some   guy in the line was talking about all the  thousands of dollars he made form it.   [01:52] And funny enough, our friend GCR  tweeted before this even happened.   He said and I quote. If you put like 20  eth into SHIB and wait 5 month for full   bull peak. You might be worth 40 million But turns out, his prediction was just a   [02:07] tad bit better than he expected. It turns out if you just put 2 eth   (which was 4k at the time) when he made this  call. You would have made 40 million dollars.   I don t know if you heard me correctly.  40 MILLION Dollars. From just $4,000.   [02:23] To put that in perspective. If you had this 2008  kia rondo with 210,000 miles on it and sold it   and put it into shiba inu when he tweeted. That one kia rondo would have turned into   [02:37] He ended up making a tweet about this trade  a couple years later. Talking about this   trade and how beautifully it went. But he also  stated, am I a billionaire though? Somehow not.   [02:50] Not to say, he still made 10s of  millions of dollars from this one trade.   Not to mention, he also publicly shorted a  bunch of meta verse coins at this time and   made an absolute bag off that as well. He was actually ranked number 12 in top   [03:05] 100 traders of all time on the exchange FTX.  Just from these couple of trades themselves.   So he s starting to make a name for himself,  but this is really just the beginning of   At this point in time Bitcoin was  hitting all time highs at $69,000.   [03:24] And absolutely everyone was talking about it. You remember these super bowl commercials?   [03:42] for crypto because this was the first time  in crypto history that we ever saw such a   huge advertisement for a crypto company. Not  to mention, it was during the SUPER BOWL.   [03:55] Because of all this publicity, crypto was  soaring higher than it ever had before.   But even with all this publicity, GCR tweets  that we re actually late in the cycle and   [04:08] that we should start taking profits. Now I want you to understand just how   crazy this tweet was at the time. Bitcoin was making all time highs, it   was being talked about in the god damn super bowl,  and it was looking more bullish then ever before.   [04:23] But shortly after all this publicity,  bitcoin absolutely tanked.   GCR shorted over 22 shitcoins at this time  and was making absolute insane numbers.   [04:37] and only a few losing trades. Now just this in itself would   he shorted multiple shit coins  making 10 s of millions of dollars,   [04:51] and was ranked in the top 10 of  traders in the ftx leaderboard.   Most would just call it a day and leave with  the 10 s of millions of dollars they just won.   But GCR was not done. In march of 2022 a twitter   [05:06] account named Algod tweeted who wants  to take a million dollar bet that luna   will be a lower price in 1 year from now . GCR comes in with his massive balls and replies   [05:18] to this tweet. Let s make it 10 million. This guy is an absolute G.   Not only that, he says he will  donate half the money to charity.   he want to do a 10 million dollar bet,  but he also tweets the founder of Luna.   [05:34] Now this is today s equivalent of a old  wester shootout. Coming straight to the   man himself and calling him out saying  your coin is just a cult narrative and   to put your money where your mouth is. The founder of Luna accepted this challenge   [05:54] and said okay lets do it. Let s see what you  got. My coin is stronger than you think it is.   Now I also want you to know how  crazy this was at this time as well.   [06:07] It went from just 28 cents to $120. If you do that math, Luna was up   42,000% in just one fn year. Everyone and their moms was trading   [06:24] this coin and everyone was making  massive amounts of money from it.   It seemed like no matter where you entered on  this coin, you were making money as it just kept   surging and surging breaking all time highs. It showed no signs of slowing down and from   [06:41] an audience point of view it looked like it  was going to be a top 5 crypto at the time.   You would have to be absolutely  insane to short this coin.   Then at the absolute peak. This random twitter  account tells you to short it and makes a 10   [06:54] That is, until this happens Luna falls 99% going all the way   He called the exact top of this coin and  tweeted publicaly about it. Not only that,   [07:13] but he basically spit in the  founders face while doing so.   GCR ends up making a few more  trades after this and profits 100 s   of millions of dollars during this time. Then nearly a year later, he tweets this   [07:30] Saying this will likely be his last tweet. Telling his followers to just keep   holding if you re in it for the long term. And saying ETH at 10k is one day programmed.   And then he goes absolutely  silent leaving twitter forever.   [07:48] Now after this tweet. His twitter  account was never used again.   And do I blame him? Absolutely not. He made his millions and probably   bought a mega yacht that is soaring  through the oceans of bora bora.   [08:00] to the present and bitcoin again is  starting to touch all time highs.   But just as it started doing this, an  absolute terrifying news headline came out.   [08:17] Iran launces a missile attack on Israel. This had the markets scared for their life as   this is like saying world war 3 is starting. and  when I say everything, EVERYTHING was dropping.   Nvida the all time AI giant lost $212 billion in  the matter of a couple days due to this news.   [08:36] All the markets were falling, including bitcoin  which dropped $10,000 in the matter of a week.   All hell was breaking lose and the  markets looked absolutely doomed.   Then out of nowhere, GCR come outs of the dark  and makes a tweet from his long lasting silence.   [08:52] If you have been sidelined, believe this is a good  opportunity to scale into high conviction tokens.   If you re fully invested, just servive, hold  your sport positions and do not capitulate .   I was enjoying retirement from social media,  but don t want to see my brothers get shaken   [09:08] out when the future is so bright . This has been the last tweet GCR has   posted from the making of this video. And while doing all this research about   GCR I learned one lesson that is  often very commonly overlooked.   [09:21] While others are scared and panicking about  global news. You should look to enter longs.   Its such a simple piece of advice but often times  we as a community of traders often overlook this   [09:35] as we get caught up in headlines and news. If there is one thing you learned from   this video, it should be that. Was this GCR s last tweet? Is he   looking to come back out of retirement  and enter back into the markets?   [09:52] Well, only time will tell. L98TSUYI0UOP
