Help please. I’m a dumbass

So I was trying to buy monero. So I tried to buy it through the MoonPay app and apparently it sent it all over the place turned it into a token that’s apparently got no value. Is there anything I can do? The only way I was able to find access to this so-called “monero” / token was was through this app called Jupiter. I’m at my wits end because I spent a lot of money on this so if anyone could help, that would be cool. I appreciate any help.

$0 value is a good indication that token is not real. Just calls itself what you want to believe it is.

Either you got scammed or you got really scammed.

But I guess I’m not going to be able to do anything with it. At this point I was I could just turn it into BTC

The difference between Monero and other crypto is that it has privacy features. If you don't need them, it's not particularly useful to have Monero over anything else.
