It is almost like the Orange Turd is a con man. Who could have seen this coming!
Oh no. The thing everyone said would happen has happened.
Btw, only idiots put money in that currency thinking it was an investment. The true purpose of that currency was to disguise bribes.
It’s a metaphor for the US economy
Buy at the dip. (Dip is $0.17)
It’s not a pump-n-dump this time. In my opinion, it’s a laundered bribe. The 800k victims were an unintended benefit.
It can easily be both.
The pump would be the bribe and the dump is them cashing out. Same thing with a bunch of suckers floating the value.
Definitely this was a way for offshore third parties to give Trump money. Gotta say this is my least favourite use of crypto, but it is also the most valuable use case (for corrupt politicians).
Damn, where did I put that violin. It’s so small, I think I might have lost it…
The tardigrade is lending you his.
A fool and his money are easily parted.
“It’s easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.” - Mark Twain
And yet somehow Elon and Trump are super rich.
When you have that much money and power, the only people that fail are the ones at the bottom of your trash heap built on the lies that brought you riches.
A lot of people never outgrew the schoolyard king-of-the-hill game, and still play it like they’re children.
Time Until Trump Leaves Office
3 YEARS : 11 MONTHS : 10 DAYS : 22 HOURS : 11 MINUTES : 23 SECONDS
Half a day since my last check. This is going to be a long slog.
Until trump is supposed to leave office
The previous insurrection was practice.
They’re not the only ones who can learn from it.
If he lives that long.
Boy that’s a pretty big assumption there.
Lame Duck Trump has already been classified as the worst president in US history.
Was never anything more than a way to scam some money and make it harder to track/tax.
Coffeezilla on the subject. I guess Trump is running with the ‘if the president does it, it isn’t illegal.’
Finally a news story about American politics that is actually news and I want to hear about.
Sounds like a class action lawsuit screaming to happen
In what courts? Why would they hold Trump accountable?
2 billion dollars / 800,000 people gives an average of 2,500 dollars per person. I’m going to venture a guess based on vibes that this was a more or less normal distribution and the median loss is close to the average loss. That’s not YUGE per person, but it would still chap my ass real good.
I imagine a lot of this is coming off the back of individuals/corporations/nations seeking influence over Trump; especially when you consider that something like 80-90% of initial tokens were owned by Trump and insiders.
A couple hundred million dollars is a small amount to pay for the leverage it could provide. I honestly think a large number of the biggest bagholders would be linked to the Saudi’s and Musk.
Well deserved losses.
