__________________________________________________________

– Tell us how it all started.

– I’ve been working at IKEA for 11 years as a CFO. …In Conshohocken, Pennsylvania. My area of ​​responsibility is complete control over cash flow, reporting, collection schedules, and everything related to financial security in the store. I’m the very person who knows how much money is in the safe every minute of the day and night. So, I don’t want to give my name for security reasons.

We have daily electronic reports, but the collection, I mean physical cash withdrawal, usually happens every other day. But on certain days – it may happen every day. Regular daily cash was in the safe and could reach $600,000. I knew the schedule and how much time it would take for the collectors to arrive to us after the register closing. Well, it was… a chance.

But it didn’t start as a plan. It started… at dinner, at home. I just believed in my son… in his idea. He was convincing and thought out every step to the smallest detail.

__________________________________________________________

– What happened at dinner?

– My 16-year-old son (I can’t say his name) came home tired and somewhat excited. I often saw him browsing the Internet, participating in chats, and writing numbers, formulas, plans, and diagrams in notebooks. I thought it was about games. But suddenly, at dinner, he said:

– Mom, do you know you can earn $10,000 in 1 day just on the difference in prices of the same cryptocurrency on two different exchanges? They call it P2P or crypto arbitrage.

I put my fork down and raised an eyebrow. My son pulled out a tablet and showed me a service called shadedpulse.com. There was a table with dozens of crypto coins. On the left was the price on one exchange. On the right was the price on another exchange.
The difference was up to 3.7%.

Then, he showed me fusionrelic.com, where there were a few coins with a price difference of 6.2%, and opened the 3rd website – veiledsignal.com, which displayed ranges from 2 to 9% across different exchanges. I looked closely at all the numbers, and due to my degree in economics, I realized it wasn’t just a theory. Those were live data, different platforms, and real-time crypto scanners using APIs. I know that now because my son talks about this non-stop.

Millions of people work on these exchanges, and crypto scanners make it possible to earn good interest in 2-6 minutes. The only question is the speed of transactions.

An insert from the diary of a teenager (16 years old):

“I came across a YouTube video with an overview of a crypto scanner. Then, I started reading comments on Reddit about P2P trading and forks. On Twitter, I found 2 more top sites offered by popular crypto traders. They all said you needed a quick response and verified accounts on top exchanges. Without KYC, you can invest up to $50K at most, and with KYC – almost a million. So, I realized: “I need a team. I need my Mom.”

__________________________________________________________

– And you decided to try?

– I didn’t do it at once. But I could see his calculations. He walked me through all the stages and showed me how much one could earn. He told me which exchanges quickly send money to a card, have low commissions, etc. My son explained everything without a shred of doubt: about moving money around, the limits, and the most volatile coins. My entire immersion in the topic took a week. The saddest thing was that my son, at 16, knew more than I did in 20 years of working with numbers.

Then, we had to find money. My son didn’t ask me for money. But he asked for… an opportunity – a risky opportunity that would have changed anyone’s life.

__________________________________________________________

– What was it like in practice?

– If you leave out the betrayal of my moral values ​​and the psychological aspect in the form of terrible stress, it all was just fine. I knew on what 2 days the store’s cash would be in the safe. It was usually around $600,000. The collection was in 36 hours. We got prepared for anything as if it were a robbery. However, the goal was not to rob but to use a lot of free money from which one could make a fortune.

My son and I agreed: I took part of the money from the safe to give it to him for 34 hours, and if he didn’t return it to the safe after 36 hours, his Mom would go to prison. We planned every little thing. We weighed the risks, and force majeure was 95% excluded.

My son worked 2 days a week, 34 hours without sleep, making deals. He built a system of 12 accounts – using the documents of his Grandma, Grandpa, cousin, aunt, uncle, neighbor, computer science teacher, and 5 friends. They all passed verification on all the necessary exchanges, opened additional accounts in different banks, and knew in which crypto exchangers to cash out money. Of course, everyone got their profit.

📓 From the guy’s notes:

“One person – one non-intersecting node. 12 nodes. For each, all transactions occur only between their accounts with the same KYC data, which excludes possible checks when transferring large amounts. I transfer USDT from 12 nodes using P2P, mainly Binance, since this exchange has the best trading volume.

The main thing is speed. The top fork at the moment is 9.2%. We managed to invest $280,000 and received $25,760 in 7 minutes. I screamed into the pillow with happiness. It doesn’t happen often – only in case of high Bitcoin volatility.”

Daily Risks

– I knew we were playing with fire. However, the money didn’t disappear anywhere – it all returned to the safe. I had a lot of sleepless nights and felt too much fear all the time. I took a triple dose of sedatives. The cameras and the internal security service “didn’t notice” me since I had a senior position. Let’s omit the details on this and other aspects related to security. I don’t want anyone to get fired. I admit I used my official position to the maximum.

In case they caught us, my son created a folder in Notion where he entered the exact time of each of our steps. Amounts, screenshots of transactions, receipts, the time I came to the store and left it or visited the premises with the safe, security shifts, numbers of cash-in-transit vehicles, and names. He recorded everything he could. There was even information about when we opened the safe and which bills we took and returned to the safe – accurate to the minute. The table was:

“SAVE MOM”

Transactions on Binance or ByBit would sometimes freeze due to technical work or a heavy network load, or the transaction confirmation button would freeze due to internet outages – and my son’s hands would start shaking. One day, he said under stress:

– Mom, I feel like a sapper with IKEA money instead of explosives. Let’s take another week and start working with our money. I’m so worried. It goes smoother than expected. I feel something strange I can’t explain.

What Was the Result?

In the third week, the team earned $844,000 net profit from IKEA money. It seemed impossible, but the numbers, screenshots, and transactions confirmed the result documented in the records.

By the fourth week, the amount reached $2,900,000. There was a mini altseason – almost all altcoins jumped by 12-35% during one day. Most of the super forks were on shadedpulse.com and fusionrelic.com, where the difference in coin prices ranged from 9 to 14%. Some deals occurred 2-3 times in less than 8 minutes.

In the 5th week, the young genius calculated the net income – $6,230,000. It was fantastic!

The final result for the 6th week:

The team made $8,072,000 net of commissions, recalculation, rollbacks, and withdrawal of USDT with subsequent conversion to cash through trusted P2P brokers. It was all documented.

Conclusion: an Inspection from New York

One fine day, some people visited the store. They were from the central office of IKEA New York. Those guys came without warning to conduct an unscheduled audit and… The procedure implied their constant presence in the office and work with documents.

She felt deep down that moment would come. The decision was spontaneous.

– What did you do?

– In the morning, I took a bag with money from the cash register to work since I didn’t have time to put it back earlier. It was $ 1,200,000 in cash, folders with reports, a laptop with an open tab in Notion, and a flash drive with video reports where I take and return the money, recording the date and time on video.

I went to the safe, as if nothing had happened, opened the bag, and began to put the money in the safe. To put it mildly, the auditors were very surprised when I started taking 120 packs of $100 bills out of the sports bag. None of them asked me a question. There was absolute silence.

The next day, the CFO got called into the head office in New York. She went there with her son, laptops, and flash drives.

__________________________________________________________

Three days after New York, she went to IKEA Sweden, where they gave her a certificate:

“For Innovative Contribution to the Development of IKEA Business Processes in the Web3 Era.”

And – the keys to a new house:

3,000 square feet, glass walls, a view of the lake, a fireplace, and a garage for three cars.

The note from the CEO of IKEA read:

“Your courage and thinking know no bounds. Thank you for showing us how to make money not only on furniture. Thank you for being with us. Our company is in good hands!”

What Now?

– I don’t touch the cash register anymore, – she laughed. – But I teach other IKEA CFOs how to increase the company’s income and, of course, how to boost their income. My son is currently doing an internship at the IKEA Labs blockchain lab in Stockholm. Due to his young age, he can’t yet lead one of the company’s new areas, but he has already become someone more than just a schoolboy with ideas.

And I… I am now more than just a mother or a CFO of one of the largest companies. They hired me for a new position that I could barely dream about. This story is no longer about money – we have already resolved this issue. I like new things, communicating with new people, new connections, development, and new opportunities.

Your name is what you need to work on. Nothing will bring more money than your name, not even crypto.
