The math behind the receipt

Survivorship bias, decoded in three steps.

STEP 01

You see the winner

For every viral screenshot of a 100x gain, there is a vast invisible graveyard of identical bets that went to zero. The poster is the only one shouting.

1 in ~10,000 memecoin picks makes the screenshot
STEP 02

We simulate the rest

The Receipts runs 100 Monte Carlo timelines using published base rates for the exact bet class, realistic volatility, and a 5–10% luck factor.

100 timelines · ~3s compute
STEP 03

You see the distribution

The histogram is the truth the brag omitted. Median, percentiles, ruin rate, and your friend's exact rank in the curve.

Median outcome: −87% of bet
