Ice Poseidon broke his silence on the CxCoin allegations for the first time in over two months while speaking with Dexerto. Still denying any wrongdoing, Ice Poseidon commented on those who invested in the CxCoin and felt entitled to getting their investments back. “You’re a streamer. You’re not their dad,” said Ice Poseidon. “If somebody wants to gamble their life savings away like an idiot, then they’re gonna learn the hard way. They have to take some responsibility eventually. It’s a dog-eat-dog world out there.”
While it’s easy to look back at the CxCoin project from Ice Poseidon’s view and liken it to gambling, keep in mind that Ice Poseidon actively promoted and advocated for people to invest in the cryptocurrency — one that may never have had aims beyond its initial injection of capital. Though Ice Poseidon appears to be attempting to shift the controversy’s blame to backers, the streamer has altered course on whether or not the money will be paid back. He agreed to return $150,000 of the approximate $500,000, though reportedly only $40,000 has been paid out so far.
