Here's how the market reacted:


One giant troll.

The event started 1 hour late, and the sound was barely audible through their live stream.

Quite possibly one of the stupidest things I've seen done in the crypto world so far. I didn't have much invested so it's not a big deal, but XMR is permanently off my list.
