Hamsters in crypto

A hamster named Mr. Gox gained worldwide fame in 2021.

Its owner equipped the hamster’s cage with sensors with a wheel and tunnels. A special program determined the type of cryptocurrency when the wheel stopped on a particular sector. The sale or purchase of the corresponding token occurred after the hamster ran through one of the two corridors.

According to the statement of its owner, the hamster never acted under duress, but only on its own.
From June to September, Mr. Gox’s initial portfolio worth € 390 increased by 25%.

“Mr. Gox brought joy to people all over the world and reminded us that you should not take life too seriously, and you can earn money playfully,” said the owner of the hamster.
After his death (as we know, the age of hamsters is not long), the owner did not continue the experiment with other hamsters.
