The post “I Wasted 8 Years in Crypto”: A Builder’s Exit Note Goes Viral Across Asia appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. “I am NOT building a new financial system. I built a casino.”This stark admission from Ken Chan, former co-founder of derivatives protocol Aevo, has been reverberating across Asian crypto communities this week.

His confession arrives six months after his departure. It comes as AEVO token trades at roughly $45 million in fully diluted market cap—down approximately 99% from its peak.
