"Just had to share this one - I was at a friend's house and his little sister somehow managed to use his Ledger Nano to purchase $200 worth of DOGE thinking it was a 'cool toy'. Luckily he was able to cancel the transaction, but now he's just chillin' with a $200 'oops' on his ledger. What's the craziest hack you've seen?"

"Lol, so I was trying to set up a crypto mining rig in my bedroom, but my roommate was freaked out by the noise and kept trying to 'reorganize' my cables. Next thing I know, he's 'accidentally' unplugged my 1200W power supply and the whole thing short-circuited. Now my room is smelling like burnt circuit boards."

"Yooo, guys! I've got a weird one - I saw a dude plug a crypto mining rig into a hotel room's outlet and then sneak out without checking out. Needless to say, the cops showed up pretty quickly and he had to pay for the whole stay"

"Dude, I gotta share this one – I was at a music festival and some genius rigged up a mini ATMs using Raspberry Pis and hacked them into dispensing free NFTs instead of cash The crowd went wild. Still got the NFTs as a sweet souvenir"

"OMG, I just saw an insane video where some dude hacked his Tesla to turn it into a portable gaming station. He basically rigged it with a gaming console, a projector, and some crazy suspension system. Has anyone else heard of anything like this?"

"Lol just had the craziest experience with my Ledger, tried to update the firmware and ended up bricking the thing for like 10 minutes thinking it was dead, turns out it was just stuck in recovery mode. Gave me a good scare though!"

"Dude, I've got a story. So I was mining Bitcoin on my rig and my cat managed to knock over a glass of juice, short-circuiting the whole thing. Luckily, I was able to salvage the GPU"
