Azdeus Posted Sunday at 12:31 AM Posted Sunday at 12:31 AM Lol. LMAO even. Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.

Lexx Posted Sunday at 08:20 AM Posted Sunday at 08:20 AM (edited) https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c9vmym2jvy9o It was never easier to bribe a politician, wow. Everyone knows this crypto **** is a scam. How the hell can this scamcoin be in the billions? Ez, other countries are "buying" the coin and Trump later will cash out. Now we know why he changed his stance on cryptocoins, and why they talked about removing taxation of profits from selling them.

Now we know why he changed his stance on cryptocoins, and why they talked about removing taxation of profits from selling them. Price is a lie. 80% of tokens are owned by CIC Digital LLC and Fight Fight Fight LLC, which belong to Trump and his associates. So from the 200 million tokens that they released to market, only 40 million is actually in open market, and some people were given pre-emption to tokens. This is typical meme coin trick to cause coin to gain lots of value and mentions in media. Trump and his associates make most of the money from handling fees that are certain percentage of value of traded tokens. And if there are enough demand on market CIC Digital LLC and Fight Fight Fight LLC will cash in their tokens and will most likely make big bank. And those that end to own tokens in that point will most likely lose their money. They say that they aim to increase token count to billion, but most likely in that point tokens value has already dropped to pennies.
