my kimchi story is insane i was at a club in dubai, nothing crazy, just vibes. a friend taps me on the shoulder and goes “yo that’s kimchi over there, look at his aura.” i look over and this guy is sitting alone at a table, not even drinking, just staring at his phone. no girls, no friends. just him and a bottle of water he hadn’t opened i go over and introduce myself. he’s cool. super quiet. doesn’t say much. i’m trying to have a conversation and he’s giving me one-word answers while scrolling his phone. not rude, just genuinely not interested in talking, unbothered then he gets up mid-sentence. doesn’t say bye, doesn’t say “i’ll be back,” just stands up and walks toward the exit. i’m sitting there like “ok I guess the conversation’s over” then I notice his phone is still on the table. face up. screen unlocked I look down and it’s his phantom wallet: $100M+. just sitting there on an unlocked phone in the middle of a club. he left a 9-figure portfolio open on a table surrounded by strangers and walked out like it was a glass of water he forgot i’m guarding this phone like a newborn. five minutes. ten minutes. fifteen. he’s not coming back. nobody comes to get it. this kid left a 9-figure portfolio on an unlocked phone in a club and just vanished so i took it home that was 3 months ago. now kimchi DMs me every week asking for $5M loans the phone’s still unlocked btw

Gigi believes the Kimchi token ($Kimchi) was a planned marketing play and not a scam to extract money “What are the chances that it was perfectly timed that this big announcement came out” “Too many like perfectly timed scenarios where I do think it's more of like it was a marketing play.”
