When a Bitcoiner loses wealth, it’s usually because the hard drive containing his/her private keys ends up in a landfill.

If adulting is too much on some pandemic-restricted days, you might enjoy newly launched Furucombo, which is basically legos for adults. Furucombo allows non-technical users to take advantage of no-code flashloans. Note: Due to limited liquidity on the decentralized exchanges Furucombo offers, it’s very difficult to capture profitable arbitrage opportunities. If arbitrage is your intended reason for using Furucombo, you might be better off devoting the time to learn Solidity to have maximum flexibility using flash loans.
