BTC‑e Trollbox
An early Bitcoin exchange chatroom where traders shouted “rise chicken rise”, made wild price predictions, pumped and dumped coins, trolled each other mercilessly, and shared brutally unfiltered opinions. Chaotic, unpredictable, and often hilarious, the Trollbox became the unofficial social hub of early crypto trading.
Figures like Jamie28, Bumface, and InTheShadows Fontas rose to notoriety there. When panic struck—such as during the Silk Road takedown—it often foreshadowed massive market crashes, cementing the Trollbox as a legendary chapter in crypto history.
