> The $815k/day appears to be the average of a peak reporting period. A more reasonable number is that it was getting $125k/day profit overall and it had one week were it made 6x that amount.
Great point - thanks for the clarification!
As for the total amount of profit, yeah, that's still absurd - $125k a day in profit for a sustained period of time.
I think that's nearly as much as the highest paid soccer player in the world makes in pre-tax salary. Think about that for a moment. A guy who spreads conspiracy theories in one country aimed at a small portion of the population makes more in a day than the highest paid athlete in the world's most popular sport.
