    The title is (begrudgingly) misleading:

    In 2018, Binance put $3 million into Luna and received 15 million tokens in return. At Luna’s price peak in April, those tokens were worth $1.6 billion, Binance’s CEO Changpeng Zhao said in a Monday tweet. At Luna’s price now, the tokens are worth about $2,391.

    Unfortunately, Binance only lost $3 million in actual money. The $1.6 billion figure is only if they had known to sell at the peak (which would have lowered the value anyway).

      Whoever turned 3million dollars into 1billion+ and didn't sell that shit is a complete and total moron.
