In his post, DNP3 wrote,

Over the last year I got incredibly addicted to gambling. Every dollar I could find I would put into Stake in hopes of winning big. Even when the big wins did happen it wasn’t enough. Eventually I lost everything. In addition to my own life savings, I also irresponsibly used investor funds to try and 'get my money back' from the casino, which was wrong for so many reasons.

DNP3 shed light on the challenge faced by him, stating that his addiction started with a sponsored stream. Based on the collection’s floor price and trade volume it is estimated that millions of dollars worth of funds were gambled away.
