玩梗or自证？“字节炒股3000万财务自由”当事人称“已回老家当保安送外卖”，仅发布英文推文后阅读量暴跌超90%

According to Odaily Planet Daily News, @leto_bao, who recently gained notoriety for claiming to have achieved financial freedom by "trading stocks at ByteDance with 30 million yuan," responded to rumors on platform X, stating: "I have already returned to my hometown. I work as a security guard in an office building during the day, deliver food at night, sell barbecue from a street stall in the early morning, and sell breakfast at the school gate in the morning. I only sleep 3 hours a day, shuttling between McDonald's and hospital outpatient clinics. I dare not go home because debt collectors block my door every day. I eat by opening treasure chests and shower in the company restroom. I have already reached a repayment plan with the bank, which is expected to take 50 years to pay off. Please stop making fun of my suffering."

The community has discussed whether this is a meme-style response for entertainment effect. However, some commenters have questioned that he still has not provided real trading proof for his investment claims, suspecting it is merely hype. Others even claim to have found records of his previously failed accounts.

Subsequently, he stated bluntly: "I will no longer post in Chinese. The Chinese circle on X is very toxic—full of anger, bot accounts, and no real discussion. Everyone is chasing creator rewards instead of genuine communication. My posts have not received any feedback worth responding to. I believe I can gain more from the English-speaking community here." However, the view count of his subsequent tweets dropped from hundreds of thousands to only around 40,000 to 70,000.
