While most hamsters are living their best lives chomping on strawberries, one hustler has literally been spinning money. Mr Goxx, a rodent from Germany, has been making news in the cryptocurrency world for his ability to trade cryptocurrency.
All his work is accomplished in his very own tiny office, called the ‘Goxx Box’, connected to a computer and installed with crypto-specific equipment. To decide which cryptocurrency to trade, he jogs in an ‘Intention Wheel’ of 30 options. Then, he chooses what to do with the crypto by going through one of two ‘Decision Tunnels’—one for “buy” and one for “sell.”

Cameras in the cage record Mr Goxx’s actions, and he even gets a thinking corner in the form of a desk with three “safe-to-eat” computer displays.

Mr Goxx’s decision process by exercise works for him. As reported by Insider, last Friday, the hamster’s portfolio was up about 24%, beating out the performance of Bitcoin, Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway, and the S&P 500. The hamster began with an account of about US$390 on June 12, and he grew it to an all-time high of US$580 in September.
The busy critter live-streams his office ongoings via Twitch. While it’s clear to see that he completes more in a day than other hamsters would in an entire lifetime, his anonymous human business partner has more plans to expand Mr Goxx’s profile.
“There are plans to give Mr Goxx more control and let him intentionally pick his buy amount if the interest in his channel keeps growing,” the caretaker tells Protos.
