Boomer Created $400M Meme Coin By ACCIDENT

Boomer Created $300M Meme Coin By ACCIDENT

Ron made a YouTube video in an attempt to prove that cryptocurrency is worthless, after seeing Fartcoin shoot over a $1 billion market cap. Once the video was published, crypto degens caught wind of the story and sent Unicorn Fart Dust (UFD) to over $260 million—now $300 million. Ron joins us to tell his side of the story, how his opinion has changed on crypto, and why meme coins are important.

Before this Ron was a gold and silver YouTube content creator, posting daily videos analysing the market. Because of this, the crypto community has branded him as a “boomer” despite Ron rejecting this tag—he’s technically a few years out. While UFD hasn’t changed his mind on silver and gold, it has made him think more positively about crypto. Why? Put simply, the power of community.

This man needs to be protected. He is the real U.S. Treasury

[AbeTaylor-bdoe]

I know Ron and he is one of the few genuine nice people left on planet earth

[Christine-oi]

I'm glad you made this video it reminds me of my transformation from a nobody to good home, $180k monthly and a good daughter full of love..

[ZacharyCordes]

Thanks for the educative video…….As new investor, it's important to remember that investing and trading require more than just technical analysis skills. Discipline and emotional maturity play a significant role in achieving success. It's wise to keep in mind the adage of "time in the market vs. timing the market, " as this mentality can help you weather market volatility. With insights of Kathleen Eisen and my commitment to learning and growth, I've been increasing my nest egg with high potential in just a few months. Keep up the good work..

Silver & gold are the only real Money with 5000 years of proof and use.

[anthonyromano]

So he starts exactly the way you are not supposed to. Fundamentally nuts.

[striveimpact]

Bought UFD yesterday after several rug pulls on tokens on coinscan.. I love his statement of a rug push. Beautiful. 🎉🎉

Thank you for this interview! Great to know this story.

[joeharvie]

RONS BASEMENT is a great YouTube channel. A gold and silver investor who is an accountant.

[williston]

Ron must be protected at all costs. Genuine, kind hearted man.

[DubProof]

All the grandparents at home doing nothing look at this guy. 🎉

[Zoli]

I understand life changing but I'll never understand personality changing. The fundamentals are that if you cannot sell because you hurt the investors then what is the point of it all? Majority of investors will be left holding a bag of farts.

[hkekkonen]

Great vidio👏 Great story🥳 -Ron is bringer of light

[mabelsyrupthefirst]

I bloody love this. As a boomer myself ❤ Ron is a legend

[ILLUMINATOR]

Ron’s a nice family man who deserves good fortune 🥠 🎉

[RkicF]

Crypto people might have a lot of money but it was all luck because they're not that smart. Dumping working coins to buy a meme coin, ouch. Buying a Trump coin at 40 when XRP is 3 is insanity. Buying the test coin or bitcoin which is old slow and expensive compared to XRP is not smart at all. All this blows me away, no common sense. Good for Ron, he took all their money.

[benfranklin]

Heard you say it. I USED to be a Silver and Gold guy.

You moved from a physical commodity guy to a new age Religion based on faith of a community.

History is filled with faith based financial bubbles that popped.

Time will tell, good luck Ron.

[CariboyPlayer]

I invested in $UFD and It seems that I will retire young, with the insane gains I am making

[maria]

You may have 2 Million dollars but what will it be worth when it crashes.

[AmericanProspector]

I was lucky to be following Ron when I got in on day .

[miropribanic]

had I known about the funny backstory, I would not have sold when this had its first dip around New Year
