Pro bullet player with 500 ping?

Are there professional bullet chess players with at least 500 ping? With no increment. Because I want to learn how they do it.

Strange question

Anyone who make money by playing bullet chess is a professional bullet player. For example: streamer or bounty hunters.

Or, if there's none, then who's the best player with 500 ping?

I don't know exactly how bad 500 ping is in chess, but in many games you can't even play with that ping. So I guess you'll never get high results in the bullet with a high ping. Even if you're Andrew Tang

I once read Kingscrusher's recommendations for playing bullet. Amongst others he recommended the fastest Internet connection you can possibly get, so your ping is around 20.

Personally I'm happy with a ping of about 30-35. Of course I'm far from professional. But 500 sounds impossible to me. Half a second time loss per move means you lose about half of your total time during the game. You can be happy to finish any games at all even if you premove all the time. Maybe blitz with increment is an option, but bullet must be totally frustrating.

500 is mostly unplayable. I have 150-300ms Ping.

I'm happy to have 35 ping. but already at 100 it's annoying. so I guess 500 is unplayable for bullet and blitz
