    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.

      Why would Trump even need a coin? SCOTUS and court cases have shown he literally could break any law and get away with it.

        Because he wants to steal more money and this is an easy way to do so for someone who doesn’t need to obey any laws

        He’s been gradually ramping up the severity of his crimes for decades. He’s still doing it, and won’t stop until we stop him. I don’t know if there’s a ceiling, but I’m certain his gang doesn’t think there is.

    Looking at the comments, it seems that the important thing is that those more than 800,000 are idiots, and it is obvious that they are, but I think it is more important that the current president has scammed with all the shamelessness and without any concealment to its own citizens. I’ll leave it up to everyone to reflect on what that means for a supposed democracy.
