Dogecoin 2021 millionaire: “I was just an exception last year,” says to stack crypto until 2023
Glauber Contessoto, the self-proclaimed “First Dogecoin Millionaire of 2021,” is rapidly losing his riches. Contessoto admitted in a recent tweet that he was an exception, having made millions during Dogecoin’s spectacular ascent in April and May of last year.
Millionaires are made in bear markets, I was just an exception last year…next bull run I’ll be more than ready. I still haven’t sold any #dogecoin. Recession is around the corner so I’m stacking crypto all 2022 and 2023 if that’s what it takes. $10 million is still the goal 🚀

Contessoto, who goes by the Twitter handle “slumDOGE millionaire,” continues to believe in Dogecoin, although it is roughly 91% lower than its all-time high of $0.73, reached in May 2021.
As Dogecoin continues to plummet, “slumDOGE millionaire” insists that he has never sold the cryptocurrency. Contessoto, a Los Angeles native, has a “rags-to-riches” narrative that has attracted a lot of attention to cryptocurrencies in general.
He claimed in April of last year that he had become a Dogecoin millionaire. “Ok, I’m just going to put this out there. I believe I’m the first Dogecoin millionaire of 2021,” he tweeted on April 17.
