How a Miami Courier Followed Michael Saylor’s Advice and Earned 620,000 USDT in 2 Months after Miami Bitcoin 2023
Miami, May 18, 2023
Tony, a 25-year-old with tousled dark hair and a slightly unshaven face, woke up in his small apartment on the outskirts of Miami. The noise of the morning city was coming through the thin walls: car horns, crying seagulls, and the distant roar of the ocean. The guy stretched, put on a faded green Uber Eats T-shirt, and went down to his old bike parked opposite the main entrance. That was his only way to make money – delivering food along the hot streets of Miami.
“Another day, another couple hundred bucks,” he muttered, checking his balance in the app: $317. The rent due date was breathing down his neck, and the dream of a new bike was still far away.
There were more orders than usual that day, and Tony decided to squeeze out the most of every minute.
Day 1: Random Snippets of Conversations
At 11:30 am, an order appeared in the app: food delivery to Miami Beach Convention Center. Tony was surprised – he usually delivered burgers and pizza to residential areas or offices, but there was a conference. The order was expensive. He quickly accepted it, picked it up, threw the bag with hot fast food on his back, and rushed through the city, maneuvering between cars.
When Tony arrived, he saw an unusual picture: a crowd of people at the entrance to the conference building, standing not inside but outside. It was lunch break. Young guys were sitting on the hoods of their sports cars – yellow Lamborghinis, red Ferraris, and black Porsches – and talking animatedly, holding coffee in their hands. With a bicycle helmet under his arm, the guy in a shabby uniform felt out of place in that luxury. He approached them modestly, afraid to even utter a word.
He approached the group, said hello, opened his bag, and began handing out orders: burgers, fries, and cola. One of the guys, in a bright T-shirt with the inscription that said “Bitcoin,” took his burger and smiled:
– Thanks, bro, you saved my life! We’ve been here since morning with only coffee and cookies. The burger is just fine.
Tony nodded and smiled. When he finished handing out orders, he saw hands reaching out with tips that no one had ever given him for one order. Someone gave him $50, someone – $40, and one guy in sunglasses handed him $100 and said, “Here you go, man… I used to be a courier too. I know what kind of work it is,” he leaned on his dark brown G63 AMG.
While he was folding his tips in shock, he could hear snippets of conversations among young crypto millionaires:
– …I caught an XRP fork of 4.2% on tangledbits.com yesterday…
– … vaultedmind.com shows more pairs, but shadedpulse.com updates the stats more often…
– …I got that fork, too, and managed to invest 50k 2 times, generating a net profit of almost $4,000…
Tony didn’t understand what they were talking about, but he was upset when he compared $4,000 with his income, for which he worked hard every month, pedaling under the hot sun seven days a week. Some weird website names… and words like “fork” and “XRP” sounded like a foreign language. He pursed his lips, took his $190 tip for the order, and moved on, lost in thoughts about the lives of guys who leave tips 5 times more than the food costs.
Day 2: Insight
The next day, May 19, Tony took an order for the same conference. The guy decided to look a little more decent: he put on a black shirt (albeit slightly wrinkled) and, hoping to learn more about those crypto, even put a notepad and a pen in his backpack. In the bag were sushi, fried rice with vegetables, and a couple of burgers – those conference participants again ordered food for a break.
When he arrived, the scene repeated: the same guys were sitting on the hoods of their luxury cars at the entrance to the building, eating and discussing something. Seeing Tony, they greeted him like an old friend:
– Oh, the legendary courier is back! – a guy with a Bitcoin tattoo on his arm shouted. – Come here, bro! Where’s my rice with vegetables and orange juice? I’m so freaking hungry!
Tony smiled and began handing out orders. Tips poured in again: $50, another $50, another $80, and again $100, from the same guy as yesterday. While he was counting the money, one of the group, a man in glasses with slightly gray hair, about 45 years old, loudly said to the group:
– Guys, eat faster! There will be a speech about crypto scanners. A speaker will show how to earn a couple of thousand dollars in 10 minutes from crypto arbitrage!
Tony froze. “$2,000 in 10 minutes?” – that phrase hit him in the head. In only 10 minutes! $4,000, $2,000, and all in 10 minutes. He felt he was in the right place but didn’t know what to do next to get out of his distorted world, with the thinking of a slave and a poor man. Curiosity got the better of him, and he decided to ask the man in glasses, who was already moving away into the building:
– Excuse me, but what the conference is this? What do you mean to earn $2,000 in 10 minutes? Where can I find out more information about it? Please… it’s like space for me, but maybe there is some website or YouTube channel, your community, or forum…
The courier shouted, catching up with the man as if grabbing at the last opportunity. The man stopped, looked at Tony with slight surprise, and answered good-naturedly:
– It’s Miami Bitcoin 2023 – a crypto conference. And about earnings – this is crypto arbitrage. You buy crypto on one exchange cheaper and sell it on another at a higher price. The difference is your profit.
– How do you do that? – Tony felt his heart pounding. They had already approached the entrance, where he couldn’t enter without a pass.
– There are crypto scanners… Some websites like vaultedmind.com, tangledbits.com, shadedpulse.com. They show the real-time difference in prices. But there’s no time to explain now. We are late. You’re a cool dude. I like such daring and persistent guys. Take a hundred… Don’t get lost! – he shoved Tony $100 and entered the building.
Tony took the man’s words literally and didn’t back down:
– Maybe you need an assistant? When does the conference end? – he shouted.
The man looked back, smiled, and returned to the guy:
– Come to the afterparty at Fontainebleau today. It will be informal. Say you’re from Mike. I’m Mike Saylor… – he pointed to himself and disappeared into the crowd.
Tony wrote down the hotel name and time in his notepad. It was his golden ticket to the unknown.
Afterparty: First Lessons
In the evening, Tony arrived at the Fontainebleau Hotel. He wore his best black jeans and a crisp white T-shirt but still felt out of place among the neon lights, expensive cocktails, and designer clothes. The music was loud, people were dancing by the pool, and the air smelled like luxury. Tony made his way through the crowd, looking for Mike.
Finally, he spotted him at the bar, surrounded by his friends. Mike saw Tony and waved his hand:
– Hey, delivery guy! I’m glad that you’ve come. Come here!
Tony approached, and Mike introduced him to the group:
– This is Tony, the persistent delivery guy who wants to know how to become a crypto millionaire.
One of Mike’s friends, a guy with a Bitcoin tattoo, winked:
– So, Tony, ready for gamechanger?
The guys retired and sat down at a table in the hotel lobby. Michael opened his laptop and began to explain. There was shadedpulse.com – tables, charts, and numbers:
– Look, here is the price for a Solana coin: $19.56 on one exchange and $20.35 on another. The difference is 3.9%. You buy it on one exchange and sell it on another – the profit is yours. The main thing is to make it before the rates stabilize.
Tony nodded, trying to get the gist.
– But how to make it? And what will happen if you don’t make it? – he asked.
– You need to have verified exchange accounts and fast Internet. You have only 2 to 10 minutes to make a deal until the prices level off. Look! – Michael showed him the history: – I invested $500,000 yesterday. I caught a 2.7% XRP fork and earned $13,500 in 7 minutes.
Tony almost choked on air. His $787 seemed a trifle, but he already saw the goal.
– How can I start? – he asked, taking his phone out of his pocket to take notes.
– Sign in to binance.com, bybit.com, and other top 10 exchanges. Pass KYC – it’s a standard verification. Watch YouTube and study coinmarketcap.com. Top up your account and monitor these 3 scanners for an accurate entry into the deal: vaultedmind.com, shadedpulse.com, and tangledbits.com. Start small, learn, and don’t be afraid of anything, – Mike spoke calmly. His voice was full of experience.
Tony wrote down everything to the last word. Mike added:
– And the main thing is discipline. Remember that it’s not a casino but a full-time job. Commissions eat up your profits if you aren’t attentive and enter a deal late. News is your friend. The only risks are wasted time and a few dollars spent on commissions. And one more thing – you should always follow the market volatility since it can provide you with a super opportunity. You can catch deals with a 9-13% spread, which will multiply your deposit many times if you run the fork 2-3 times.
Tony thanked Mike for his time and left the afterparty with glowing eyes and a plan in his head. It all happened quickly – all the other guys dispersed in the atmosphere. He still felt like an outsider.
First Steps: from $787 to the First Deals
In three days of the conference, Tony got $470 in tips from those generous crypto millionaires. He still had $317 left. That was his entire start-up capital. Tony dug into his lair, turned on his old laptop, which hummed like a lawn mower, and got to work. He signed in to all the popular exchanges, passed verification (he had to tinker with a photo of his passport), bought USDT, and started monitoring scanners.
The first deal was to buy and sell XRP. On tangledbits.com, he saw a difference of 3.5% between some exchanges. He bought 1780 XRP with all his money and sold it 4 minutes later for $836. The profit was $48.5 after commission. It wasn’t too much, but Tony thought it was a triumph. Almost $50 in 4 minutes – just sitting at the laptop – turned his world upside down.
– I made it! – he screamed, almost knocking over the laptop. It was his first step.
High Speed: Two Months of Persistent Work
For the next few weeks, Tony lived in a new rhythm. His morning began at 6:00 am with checking scanners. He looked for forks – differences in prices. Volatility became his ally: after news about the growth of Bitcoin or the fall of Ethereum, the prices for other coins diverged significantly. One of the first memorable deals was on shadedpulse.com: he caught an XLM fork of 7%, invested 1560 USDT, and earned 109 USDT in 5 minutes. His adrenaline was off the charts.
He studied the commissions of all exchanges, counted every cent, and kept a transaction log to observe the dynamics. One day, he saw a Solana spread of 13% on tangledbits.com and spent all his $5800 to buy the coin. While he was buying, sending, and selling, the fork spread fell to 11%. He got a $638 profit. It was his record at that time. He felt he could do anything. He tasted the life of crypto enthusiasts.
Tony worked 12-14 hours a day. He slept in fits and starts and forgot to eat. His friends joked: “Tony, you’re a crypto zombie now!” But he didn’t listen to anyone. The balance continued growing: $10K, 20K, 50K, 80K, 100K… Tony reinvested everything, thus increasing the rates. He realized what compound interest was. The more he invested, the more he could receive. Big money made even more money.
Two months later, in July 2023, Tony saw his wallet go over 620,000 USDT. The guy sat down on his knees, covered his face with his hands, and slowly took a couple dozen breaths in and out. His tears flowed like a stream. Just recently, he dreamed of sneakers for 150 bucks, and now, he could buy a Porsche 911 Turbo S for $220,000 – a car from his childhood dreams and fantasies. Tony seemed to pick up the code to a carefree, happy, and wealthy life. He remembered the conference parking lot, where the same young guys like him were sitting in their sports cars.
New Life and New Mission
A week later, Tony was standing at the car dealership, holding the keys to a black Porsche 911 Turbo S. He moved into an ocean-view apartment, where he could hear only waves instead of noisy neighbors. But he did not forget his roots. Tony invited his friends – the same as him, young and ambitious, to teach them arbitrage – crypto trading with some real-life examples. They listened to him carefully and did everything he said since there was only one authority among them – a guy with a brand new Porsche, which was the dream of most guys. It wasn’t just a car but a legend.
– If I could do it, you can do it, too, – he said. – The main thing is not to be afraid of anything, calculate potential profit, and make deals quickly.
Epilogue
In an interview with a local blog, Tony said:
– I thought I was taking burgers to the guys at the conference, but it was the beginning of my new life. Three days, a little courage – and everything changed.
His story inspired thousands of people. Tony became an example of how a chance meeting and persistence can change fate.
– Everyone has a phone with the Internet and the keys to success in their pocket – vaultedmind.com, shadedpulse.com, and tangledbits.com.
The conditions are equal for everyone. Life blesses those who take what is theirs, breaking their character and those attitudes in their heads that society has instilled in them since childhood. There is always another way.
