How much did 4chan sell for? I mean, nobody but hiro and moot knows but what would be a reasonable estimate? I'm guessing 50-200k.
moot was desperate to sell, but wanted it to go to someone he had basic trust in. That said, Hiro is still a business man and moot reached out to him, so he had to make it an appealing offer.
I feel it was around 50k and no more.
It probably cost a few nickels and a bag of cheddar popcorn

Yeah, in the final QA he mentioned 4chan generates ~40k ("low five figures") profit a year. I don't think he was desperate to sell, but given the situation I think I would have sold out at that amount.
Kinda interesting how declined a 50k offer back in 2005.

Didn't some rich reddit normalfag offer to buy 4chan for like a million dollars a while back before the election? Or was the just a joke?
If so, if I were moot I'd be crying. Could have sold it to that guy and basically never had to work again a day in his life.
A couple thousand plus lifelong access to images deleted for GR1.

Million dollars is a lot but not enough to live a normal American life especially in a city like New York.

I think it was Martin Shekeli , the AIDS pill guy.

not really, unless you're /biz/ or in your 50s.
Are the rumors true that moot wanted to sell to the owner of futaba channel but got conned by hiro instead? I remember this rumor circulating around here for a while when /qa/ was still mostly meta and interactions with hiro
>>1504689
I remember that but don't know if it's real either
A dollar.
>>1504689
I don't see why Kanrinin-San would care about 4chan whatsoever
>>1504689
Isnt hiro the owner of Futaba/2ch?

Yeah, you're right, i'm dumb. Sorry.
>>1504640
Moot has a horrible sense in trusting people
>>1504640
If he auctioned it I bet he'd have gotten 500k+. There are probably tens of rich autists here who would pay 6 figures.
>>1504689
Unlikely. moot knew hiro for years, and he isn't the type of person who'd get "conned" and leave quietly.
>>1506133
moot didn't trust anyone.

i trust you anon
I'd buy that for a dollar!
