Early Access – How the Habbo 2020 market crash wiped out over $30M
🕑 Added 2024-10-13 20:27:08 +0000 UTCFour years overdue and four scripts later, I've finally done it—I've made the Habbo 2020 video.
When I wrote the first script for this video back in January 2021, I was writing about this event in the present. From the discussions I had with my sources, it honestly felt like their (virtual) world was ending.
By October 2024, Habbo had long experienced a post-crash economic recovery. The memories of the panic that gripped Habbo in 2020 have all but faded away.
My final iteration of this script is a retrospective—reliving the moments in 2020 when Habbo was gripped by what was possibly the worst market crash in its over two-decade history.
I've uploaded this video, along with subtitles, to Patreon as an ad-free alternative.

For transparency purposes, I've put further information about the methodology and limitations for the headline $30M figure in the description of the YouTube video.

I forgot to add this to my post, but just to be clear, my upload schedule isn't going to be every two weeks. I'm pleasantly surprised by the turnaround time for this video, but I did also have a version of the script for around four years now, so it was always "80% done." Until now, of course :)
