In the midst of the crypto market turmoil, Dogecoin co-creator Billy Markus is reminding his Twitter followers that, “crashes happen in Crypto.”
Markus added that current market conditions simply reflect the underlying sentiment of those involved in crypto, expressing his frustration with community.
Responding to his tweet, one follower wrote, “The difference is now. It won’t take 3 years to recover, with today’s exposure it could happen in 3 months. Hell even 3 weeks with the right help.”
Another follower responded, saying, “I’m ready to buy it all up too! This is the discount I wanted.”
Markus also reflected on the market’s performance last year, noting how far things have fallen so far in 2022.
