People complain about the morality of something but jump in and take advantage of it anyway

typical libs preaching about love and equality but by jumping into this coin you made trump richer, and when you sell for a profit, someone is selling for a loss. So you’re screwing someone else over.

libs are the biggest hyprocits lol. Just like the dorks that own Tesla stock but think Elon is evil. Nah you’re the evil one for supporting them at your own gain


Me selling for a profit does not mean someone else has to sell at a loss.
The coin can keep rising, the only people losing money are those who buy high and panic sell when they saw downward momentum, they made a choice to gamble just like anyone throwing money on a roulette wheel.
No one cares about your selective morality, the right invented fake virtue signalling.

I have openly stated many times that i think capitalism is a shit system and that i am also going to take advantage of it to support my family anywhere i can within the bounds of the law.
I did not CHOOSE this shit system, i was born into it.

Really not a fan of this, diminishes him in my eyes for doing it. Degen boomers used to scratch the itch by wasting their money at casinos, while millennials and zoomers are playing the hype with shitcoins. A lot of people will get burned and be left holding the bag of worthless 'assets' that aren't backed by anything nor have any intrinsic value or utility.

Market cap of over 5 billion within a day, with his family allegedly controlling what, over 80% of it? His net worth before this was like 6-7 billion? Launching this coin is probably going to end up being the most profitable venture he's ever undertaken.


80% Is owned by his circle but the base of ownership is allegedly very broad. lockout times are out to 24 months. so his fam gets unlocked in time to sell on inaugeration hype, and staffers will get unlocked later to sell at a much lower valuation. so not only scamming degens but also his staffers lol. such a dumb move.

Was there a better breakdown somewhere. I could only see each tranche that unlocks as "group 1, 2 , 3" etc and CiC Capital or whatever it was, which is owned by Trump.

It's likely one of Elon's 'employees', like the ones who farm path of exile gear for him.

I'm not sure i would say scamming because i honestly don't think anyone is dumb enough to not understand this isn't worth anything. They've even covered their asses and clearly advertised it as a meme coin. The staffers, even if this coin value goes down 80% from here it's still a huge sum of money for literally nothing. That's why i compare it to gambling.

I hope this is the catalyst that significantly wipes out the shit coins. I think there's a lot of value down the road in block chain technology, but too much investment and liquidity is being sucked up by dead ends like the DOGE, Trump coin and all the other ones. It reminds me of late 90s when anything with a .com would have a massive and completely unjustified valuation, it was complete mania. We need a meteor event like the dot com crash to wipe out the garbage so you get the real wave of innovation. The meteor event happening is not a matter of if but when, and it will happen in a blink.

I think there are scams and they're are illegal scams. this doesnt seem illegal, but NFTs went boom then bust, maybe shitcoins can too. sadly as long as it makes millionaires people well be jaded and think they too can get rich, as well as celebs seeing it as basically a fan club they can monetize.

DOGE is a joke as far as crypto goes but i honestly see a use case for twitter payments. only because its so incredibly fractional compared to BTC. like if im tipping some poster on X i'd rather give them 5 DOGE than .0000000001 BTC. outside of that which is also a bit of a meme its got zero use, its not even a good store of value. still less pump and dump than XRP, those holders are like a cult.

It was the Biden admin which banned tiktok and it is Trump who just announced that he intends to unban them for 90 days, so that a deal can be struck where tiktok henceforth will be run in the US by a joint venture in which a US-based company holds 50%+1 of the shares.


It wasn't Biden admin. It was congress and a bi-partisan effort. It is all a smoke screen for the real shit show about to begin with Trump.
