Coin Conglomerate After Release

The virtual currency issue, which had disappeared for a while due to the rebound of K Star Coin, covered the Internet again.

In particular, today was the day when K Star Coin’s super-large seminar was scheduled, so SNS was full of people spreading related news.

-Is this the true story of today’s K-Star lineup? Just listing their names makes my heart grow.

└ They were all plastered with S-rank idols.

└ The actor lineup was also crazy? I was surprised to see actors who had only filmed commercials come to the event. It’s the year-end awards ceremony.

– It’s not good to make the event big. It’s all coin bugs burning money to make up for it.

└ Yes~ Bullsh*t. It is rather beneficial if investors increase through publicity.

– No matter how big the event is, domestic is already saturated.

└ There are quite a few K-pop fans overseas. It is secretly rising to the top of the Billboard charts. If this trend continues, won’t it be No. 1 soon?

└ Billboard No. 1 as a Korean idol?

└ hahahaha

– It’s been a long time since I’ve burst bread. Even Gangnam Style couldn’t top the billboard, so how did an idol song top?

└ Why are you so negative? If the song is well-picked, it could even hit #1 on the Billboard charts.

└ After the collapse of the United States in a nuclear war, it will be possible.

A special announcement of K Star Coin was scheduled for this seminar, so more attention was being paid to it.

Then, a video uploaded on social media becomes a big topic.

[Two giants of virtual currency meet at K Starcoin Seminar]

In the video, Shin Woo-hyuk, CEO of WHTS Company, and Taylor Kim of K-Star Coin met and chatted.

People who clicked on the video out of curiosity were astonished to hear their conversation.

– Has anyone seen the video uploaded here? Shin Woo-hyeok is grinding K Star Coin to powder?

-woah. He screams in Taylor’s face that K-Star Coin is ruined. he’s a real man

-Isn’t it a check against competitors? Shin Woo-hyuk is not a developer, so he probably doesn’t know the structure of cryptocurrency.

-What are you talking about? Lee So-young is also with you. And the point is, the content of the conversation is completely different from what Taylor said.

The video of the two people’s conversation started on social media, then spread to communities, virtual currency discussion forums, and group chat rooms, and more than 100,000 views were taken within 30 minutes of uploading the video.

Belatedly, there was a suspicion that the video had been manipulated, but the theory of manipulation was dispelled by someone posting an authentication message on the community.

[I confess my conscience. I heard the remarks of CEO Shin Woo-hyuk at the K-Star Coin seminar.]

The anonymous post was about hearing a video-like conversation at the event.

[…] … I should have revealed it sooner, but wouldn’t anyone have believed me if I told you? Like Taylor, I robbed K Star and KSC, so judge for yourself.]

If the article was simply posted, the credibility would have been questioned.

However, the anonymous post even authenticated the VIP invitation to sit in front of the event with a photo.

Thanks to this, public opinion, which was dubious, quickly tilted to one side.

The second floor of the WHTS Company building is crowded with employees who want to go to work after drinking coffee every morning.

Today, it was the same as usual, but what was unusual was that all the employees who gathered in groups of two or three had the same topic of conversation.

“Chief, have you seen the morning news? K Starcoin trading was suspended.”

“I was also surprised when I heard the news. Even until yesterday afternoon, I sent out the news that I had recovered, but I couldn’t stand it for a day and it was smashed.”

“The seminar event was held in a big way, so I wonder if it was to eat and splash at the last minute?”

“It’s because hedge funds hit short selling as a group.”

“Anyway, if the CEO ran away to Singapore at dawn, it would be like eating and splashing.”

As the story of K-Star Coin continues, the new employees who were listening to it also quietly join the conversation.

“excuse me… … If trading is suspended, will I not be able to use K Star Coin?”

“why? Did Jinsol buy a K-Star too?”

“I didn’t buy a lot. I bought some on the recommendation of a friend. About 100,000 won… … .”

“I think that was enough. Among my friends, there is a guy who even cheated on the deposit, but they made a fuss about dying in a group chat room.”

From the side, the manager coughs and notices. It was because the expression of the new employee who was listening was getting tired of it.

He said he invested about 100,000 won in words, but it seemed like he had invested more than that.

“that… … If you look carefully, there must be an exchange that is still trading. If you look for small and medium-sized exchanges… … .”

“… … .”

“oh! found!”

“Really?”

“This is an exchange operating in Hong Kong. I haven’t blocked the K-Star transaction yet. What is the current market price… … .”

Not only the people sitting at the same table, but also the people sitting at the table next to each other, pay attention to their conversation.

“Uh, um… … .”

“How much is it now? Can I sell right away?”

“I can sell it, but the market price has dropped too much.”

The new employee screams in surprise when he sees the K Star Coin market price on his mobile phone.

“Is this really true? Isn’t it?”

$0.000000999967 each.

It was the miserable words of virtual currency, which said that it would seize the domestic entertainment market and swallow Hollywood.

The staff were silent for a while.

When the employee who asked the market price leaves first with a ghostly expression, only then do people open their mouths again.

“How much did you buy for that? A young friend is not afraid. Tsk tsk.”

“It’s too bad.”

“That kind of thing happens because it’s covered so easily. Do you think that others make hard money because they are fools?”

As the conversation continued afterwards, the story of the video that appeared on the Internet yesterday came out naturally.

“Looking at the video on the internet, it seems that our CEO expected K-Star Coin to become like this.”

“Of course you would have expected it. How many people in the virtual currency industry have better discernment than you?”

“I wish I could have warned you in advance… … Wouldn’t there have been fewer victims?”

“Ugh! Sounds like a big deal!”

Due to the loud voice of the chief, the people around me glanced at me.

“If K Star Coin had been suspended after the CEO warned, do you think investors would have been grateful? Thousands of words Rather, he would have warned and cursed that the coin was ruined?”

“Ah, no way.”

“Because it’s real. Do you think there is a saying that if you rescue someone from drowning, you have to pack your bags?”

Everyone didn’t believe the manager’s words. It was because I thought that no matter how dreary the world had become, it wasn’t that much.

But after a while, something worse than he said happens.

* * *

Even after the videos of Shin Woo-hyuk and Taylor Kim covered social media, K Star Coin maintained its market price for a while.

However, the number of individual investors who sold the stock at that time was less than 10%.

The remaining 90% of individuals waited for favorable news at the seminar and held the coin until the end, and then they got tired of it.

About 700,000 known K-Star Coin investment victims alone.

When the statistics show that more than 90% of them are Koreans, the government is also struggling to find a remedy for victims.

“Hello, CEO Shin Woo-hyuk.”

The meeting hall where the government’s virtual currency victim countermeasures meeting is held.

As I arrive at the entrance of the conference hall, a middle-aged man in a neat suit approaches.

Wang Jeong-hyeon is the head of the Presidential Secretariat. I knew him because I had met him at the last presidential inauguration.

“You must be busy, but thank you so much for taking the time.”

“It’s related to our industry, so of course you have to attend.”

“Come to think of it, WHTS Company must also suffer greatly from this incident. Because the accident happened so big… … .”

“We are not a virtual currency whose price fluctuates, so there is no big problem.”

At most, it would be the extent to which the market capitalization of Acorn Coin would decrease. Rather, it is more worrisome that the government will issue strict regulations on virtual currency.

Perhaps having read my thoughts, Director Wang quietly added a comment.

“If you help us in preparing this countermeasure, we will support WHTS Company both physically and mentally.”

“I will only trust Director Wang.”

Officials from government ministries were already seated at the conference hall.

The back of the conference hall is full of reporters and cameras. It was a proof that the level of public interest in this situation was so high.

“From now on, we will start the virtual currency investment damage countermeasure meeting.”

A countermeasure meeting begins in a heavy atmosphere.

First, the Ministry of Justice, the key ministry in this situation, made a statement.

“There are 700,000 victims of this virtual currency investment. to… … Most of the victims are young people, and if a remedy is not prepared, they will suffer social consequences.”

“However, if the debt is forgiven, there is a risk of moral hazard.”

“Of course, there is no debt relief. It will be carried out by adjusting the debt interest and deadline… … .”

Whether it’s burdensome that the contents of the meeting are being broadcast in real time, I’m cautious about what the meeting participants say.

With a slow voice, a low tone, and even a monotonous tone, there is no separate lullaby.

“… … .”

How long did the discussion on countermeasures go on?

The man standing in front of the camera suddenly asks a question.

“Minister! Shouldn’t we catch the culprit of this situation first? Rumor has it that he has already fled abroad. Do you have any plans to catch it?”

There is no affiliation and name on the necklace pass. Is it because you are a reporter for a small newspaper? Or maybe he’s an internet broadcast reporter.

It wasn’t a meeting to ask questions from reporters, but the Minister of Justice gave stuttering answers, probably because the camera was taking pictures.

“to… … That’s it. Cryptocurrency is not recognized as a financial product yet. Hmmm, the investigation isn’t easy. So, first of all, we proceed with the legal interpretation, and then… … .”

It was a response that caused a tantrum not only to the questioner, but also to the listener.

Perhaps Wang Jeong-hyeon, the head of the department, didn’t want to do it, so he hurriedly turned on the microphone and started to deal with it.

“This is a meeting to prepare damage measures. We will discuss related topics first, and other topics will be explained later.”

He turns off the microphone and sends me an SOS signal with his eyes. He meant to return the topic by saying something.

‘Regulations later, what, just talk about something else.’

When I touch the microphone button, I hear a ‘crackling’ sound.

Even though it was a small voice, everyone in the conference room looked at me. The rear cameras are all turned towards me.

“This situation hurt not only investors but also the Korean entertainment industry. I understand that some companies have exchanged shares with virtual currency, entered into partnerships in exchange for virtual currency, or held events.”

Starting from my remarks, the movements of reporters who had been sitting in a daze become busy. Some people call and leave in a hurry.

The speech continues in a somewhat distracted atmosphere.

“We, WHTS Company, will support the Korean entertainment industry on behalf of the company that caused this incident… … .”

When the story has reached this point.

A sharp voice is heard from behind.

“Dirty hypocrite! f*ck the bullsh*t!”

It was the shaggy-haired reporter who had asked the Minister of Justice earlier. In his hand was something wrapped in newspaper.

“die!”

The end of the newspaper is pushed right into my chest.

Instinctively I knew what that thing was. However, the distance was too close to avoid the guy charging from behind.

‘This rotten… … .’

The cool touch of metal precedes, followed by the sound of drums ripping, echoing in your ears.

Pooh-.

Indescribable pain.

A burning sensation.

Finally, the world was dyed black.
