No, you’re not a trillionaire. But you’d be forgiven for soiling your trousers when you took a peek at the price of your favorite cryptocurrency investments on CoinMarketCap on Tuesday afternoon.

CoinMarketCap squashed the dreams of crypto investors around 5pm ET on Tuesday when it explained in a tweet that the shocking jump in price of a variety of cryptocurrencies was due to “price issues” and wasn’t real.

wasn’t real

Huh.

[Skywise]

fake rich?

I don’t see how that’s any different than those with fiat money these days...

[BusterDog]

I know, right? The “fake rich” term was what caught my interest. How deep does the rabbit hole go?

[antidemoncrat]

cryptocurrency ... electronic money .... imaginary wealth

[The Louiswu]

…it’s the stuff dreams are made of…

City nights, summer breeze makes you feel alright
Neon lights, shining brightly make your brain ignite
See the girls with the dresses so tight
Give you love if the price is right
Black or white, in the streets there’s no wrong and no right, no

Outta site, buy your kicks from the man in the white
Feels alright, powder pleasure in your nose tonight
See the men paint their faces and cry
Like some girl it makes you wonder why
City life, sure is cool but it cuts like a knife, it’s your life

So forget all that you see
It’s not reality
It’s just a fantasy
