Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

All I'm gonna say is that with the large number of pump and dump crypto schemes that have happened over the years, if you're still falling for it I have no sympathy for you. Everyone thinks they're gonna be the one to cash out and leave everyone behind whereas most everyone are the ones being left behind.
This is a bribery scheme. It's pretty fucking obvious.
It's both. Eventually the value will drop to 0 once Trump is out of office, but in the meantime he'll just use it in the same way the Trump hotel was used in the previous admin.
Its already down again fyi
Yeah, they're selling off initially, but Trump controls 80% of the currency, so they'll pump and dump it continuously over his presidency. All he needs to do is post some ridiculous thing about making the treasury buy some or whatever and it'll bump right back up again.
